Answer: The amount of protons

Explanation: They all have 6 protons making them carbon

Hello, I believe your answer is referring to the many isotopes of carbon, as carbon-12, 13, and 14 are all isotopes of carbon. What makes these all carbon is that they contain the same amount of protons (6), yet a different amount of neutrons making them an isotope of carbon.

Illusion [34]
The longest hydrocarbon chain in the given compound is hexane, therefore it is the parent chain to be considered with one methyl group attached to the 3rd carbon and one chloro attached on the 2nd carbon, therefore the name of the compound is 2-chloro-3-methylhexane

For the following reaction, 5.78 grams of chlorine gas are mixed with excess iron. The reaction yields 6.79 grams of iron(III) c
NeX [460]

Answer:

a. Theoretical yield = 8.81 g

b. 77 %

Explanation:

We begin from the reaction:

2Fe (s) + 3Cl₂ (g) → 2FeCl₃ (s)

and the excess is the iron, so the limiting reagent is the chlorine.

We convert mass to moles → 5.78 g / 70.90 g/mol = 0.0815 mol

Ratio is 3:2 so we think this:

From 3 moles of chlorine, I can produce 2 moles of Iron (III) chloride

Then 0.0815 moles would produce (0.0815 . 2) /3 = 0.0543 moles

This is the theoretical yield. We convert the moles to mass:

0.0543 mol . 162.2 g /mol = 8.81 g

If the reaction yields 6.79 g of FeCl₃ and the theoretical yield is 8.81 g ,we can obtain the percent yield: (6.79 / 8.81) . 100 = 77 %

By reacting, an element that does not have a complete set of valence electrons can acquire an electron configuration similar to
LenaWriter [7]
A noble gas is different from other elements because <u>they are the most stable elements that can have the maximum number of valence electrons on their outer shells.</u> This characteristic allows the noble gases to rarely react with other elements, unlike all the other elements found within the periodic table. Nobel gases are found in the group 18 of the periodic table and these are Argon, Neon, Krypton, Xenon, Organesson, Helium, and Radon.
