When balancing a chemical equation, a coefficient within a chemical equation can be adjusted to balance the chemical equation.

<h3>What is a Chemical equation?</h3>

This is defined as a written expression of a chemical reaction and contains the reactants and products which are involved.

It also has to be balanced which means that the number of atoms of elements on the reactants side has to be equal to that on the product side.

This is therefore the reason why only coefficients are adjusted to ensure the equation is balanced. Other parts such as the superscripts and subscripts shouldn't be adjusted in this scenario.

Why does water have a lopsided shape and act like a chemical magnet?
leva [86]

Answer:

See below  

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) Shape

The formula for water is H-O-H.

The central O atom has four electron pairs around it. They try to get as far from each other as possible, so they point toward the corners of a tetrahedron.

Only two of the pairs have a hydrogen atom attached, so water has a bent shape. The H-O-H bond angle is about 104°.

(b) Chemical magnet

The O atom has a greater attraction than H for the shared electrons in the O-H bonds, so the electrons spend more time near the O.

This gives the O atom a partial negative charge (pink in the diagram) and the H atoms a partial positive charge (blue).

The water molecule acts like a chemical magnet because its negative end attracts the positive ends of other molecules, while its positive ends attract the negative ends of other molecules.

A sample of gas occupies 115.9 mL at -206.6°C. What volume does the sample occupy at 175.9 °C?
aniked [119]
Charles law gives the relationship between volume of gas and temperature.
It states that for a fixed amount of gas at constant pressure, volume of gas is directly proportional to the temperature.
\frac{V}{T} = k&#10;
where V - volume and T - temperature and k - constant 
\frac{V1}{T1} =  \frac{V2}{T2}
where parameters for the first instance are on the left side and parameters for the second instance are on the right side of the equation
T1 - temperature in Kelvin , -206.6 °C + 273.15 = 66.55 K
T2 - 175.9 °C + 273.15 = 449.05 K
substituting the values in the equation 
\frac{115.9 mL}{66.55 K} =  \frac{V}{449.05 K}
V = 782 mL
the new volume is 782 mL

Which of the following groups have seven valence electrons and are very reactive?
valina [46]

Answer:

Column 17 halogens

Explanation:

To answer the question we need to know the following;

What are valence electrons?

  • Valence electrons are outermost electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom of any element.

What are halogens?

  • Halogens are group 7 elements that have seven valence electrons. They include, chlorine, fluorine, iodine, etc

What is the reactivity of halogens?

  • Halogens are the most reactive non-metals in the periodic table. They react by gaining one electron to attain a stable configuration.
