The molecular formula of HgCl (m = 5 472.1 g/mol) is Hg2Cl4.

The molecular formula is an expression that defines the number of atoms of each element in one molecule of a compound. It shows the actual number of each atom in a molecule.

<h3>Molecular formula: What is it?</h3>

A chemical formula is a way to communicate information in chemistry about the proportions of atoms that make up a specific chemical compound or molecule. Chemical element symbols, numbers, and occasionally other symbols like parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas, and plus and minus signs are used to represent the chemical elements.

A molecule's molecular formula reveals which atoms and how many of each kind are included within it. No subscript is used if there is just one atom of a certain kind. A subscript is added to the symbol for an atom if it contains two or more of a certain type of atom.

The addition of hydrochloric acid to a silver nitrate solution precipitates silver chloride according to the reaction:
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

Enthalpy change for the reaction is -67716 J/mol.

Explanation:

Number of moles of AgNO_{3} in 50.0 mL of 0.100 M of AgNO_{3}

= Number of moles of HCl in 50.0 mL of 0.100 M of HCl

= \frac{0.100}{1000}\times 50.0 moles

= 0.00500 moles

According to balanced equation, 1 mol of AgNO_{3} reacts with 1 mol of HCl to form 1 mol of AgCl.

So, 0.00500 moles of AgNO_{3} react with 0.00500 moles of HCl to form 0.00500 moles of AgCl

Total volume of solution = (50.0+50.0) mL = 100.0 mL

So, mass of solution = (100.0\times 1.00) g = 100 g

Enthalpy change for the reaction = -(heat released during reaction)/(number of moles of AgCl formed)

= \frac{-m_{solution}\times C_{solution}\times \Delta T_{solution}}{0.00500mol}

= \frac{-100g\times 4.18\frac{J}{g.^{0}\textrm{C}}\times [24.21-23.40]^{0}\textrm{C}}{0.00500mol}

= -67716 J/mol

[m = mass, c = specific heat capacity, \Delta T = change in temperature and negative sign is included as it is an exothermic reaction]

Which compound reacts with an acid to produce water and a salt
Hatshy [7]
I'm not exactly sure which one but I do know that an acid and a base react in a aqueous solution to form water, so i would probably eliminate the ones that aren't aqueous solutions.

Which element has a larger atomic radius than sulfur? chlorine cadmium fluorine oxygen
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

  • <u>Cadmium has larger atomic radius than sulfur.</u>

Explanation:

Down a period, atomic radii decrease from left to right due to the increase in the number of protons and electrons across a period: when a proton is added the pull of the electrons towards the nucleus is larger, so the size of the atom decreases.

Hence, you can compare the elements that belong to a same period and predict that the atom with lower atomic number (number of protons) will haver larger atomic radius. With that:

  • Oxygen and fluorine are in the period 3, being oxygen to the left of fluorine, so oxygen is larger than fluorine.

  • Sulfur and chlorine are in the period 4, being sulfur to the left of chlorine, so sulfur is larger than chlorine.

Now see whan happens down a group. Atomic radius increases from top to bottom within a group due to electron shielding. That permits you to compare the size of the elements in a group:

  • Fluorine and chlorine are in the same group (17), with chlorine directly below fluorine, so the atomic radius of chlorine is larger than the atomic radius of fluorine.

  • Sulfur and oxygen are in the same group (16), with sulfur directlly below oxygen, so sulfur the atomic radius of sulfur is larger than the atocmi radius of oxygen.

So far, you can rank the atomic radius of sulfur, chlorine, fluorine, and oxygen, in increasing order as:

  • O < F < Cl < S, concluding that O, F, and Cl have smaller atomic radius than S.

Cadmiun, Cd, is to the left and below sulfur, so both electron shielding (down a group) and increase of the number of protons (down a period) lead to predict the cadmium has a larger atomic radius than sulfur.

The elements silicon (atomic number 14) and chlorine (atomic number 17) are both in Period 3. Which is the more reactive element
Svetlanka [38]

Answer;

-Chlorine is more reactive than silicon

Explanation;

-As you move across a period, the nuclear charge will increase; the number of energy levels will stay the same, so there is a stronger and stronger attraction for the electrons.

-The electrons are being held more tightly as you move across a period. It becomes more and more difficult to lose electrons and consequently the reactivity of non metals increases as you go from left to right across the periodic table; Therefore; chlorine is more reactive than silicon.
