Both of the compounds contain primary bonding; however, the bonding is of different types. Magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) contains ionic bonds, which are stronger and involve the complete transfer of electrons. Meanwhile, ethane (C₂H₆) also bonds by electron transfer but the electrons are not completely transferred from one atom to another. Instead, they are shared, forming what is known as a covalent bond.
Answer:
NaNO₃
Explanation:
A precipitate is a compound or a salt formed from a precipitation reaction and does not dissolve in water and therefore will exist in solid state.
From the choices given precipitation reaction will occur between;
- Fe(NO₃)₃(aq) + 3NaOH(aq) → Fe(OH)₃(s) + 3NaNO₃(aq)
- Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) → Cu(OH)₂(s) + 2NaNO₃(aq)
- FeSO₄(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) → Fe(OH)₂(s) + Na₂SO₄(aq)
Fe(OH)₃, Cu(OH)₂, and Fe(OH)₂ are precipitates.
From the rules of solubility, hydroxides are insoluble except Ca(OH)₂ which is slightly soluble and hydroxides of ammonium and alkali metals.
Answer:
Two Electrons.
Explanation:
Strontium is the atom with atomic number 38, and electron configuration is [Kr] 5S^2 which mean just two electrons more than Krypton which one of the Noble gases.
Answer:
Mass = 76.176 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of lead(II) chloride produced = 62.9 g
Mass of lead(II) nitrate used = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
Pb(NO₃)₂ + 2HCl → PbCl₂ + 2HNO₃
Number of moles of lead(II) chloride:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 62.9 g/ 278.1 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.23 mol
Now we will compare the moles of lead(II) chloride with Pb(NO₃)₂ from balance chemical equation:
PbCl₂ : Pb(NO₃)₂
1 : 1
0.23 : 0.23
Mass of Pb(NO₃)₂:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.23 mol × 331.2 g/mol
Mass = 76.176 g
