a) The E might belong to group 13.

As the formula of a chemical compound is derived by the cross multiplication of the valency of the atoms. As formula of the given oxide is and valency of O atom is -2, therefore valency of element E must be +3 in order to obtain E2O3.

Also, in EF3, the valency of E will be +3 because there are three atoms of fluorine who has an individual valency of -1. Thus, e will have the valency of +3.

The Group 13 is the boron group which has the following elements:

Boron
Aluminium
Gallium
Indium
Thallium

All these elements have the valency of +3.

Answer:

A) They all have 12 protons.

Explanation:

Magnesium has an atomic number of 12 which means it has 12 protons. All Magnesium atoms have 12 protons, the neutrons however may differ which produces things called isotopes where the atoms have same protons but neutrons change.

Keep in mind the atomic number is unique to each element, so 12 atomic number will always be Magnesium, 1 will always be Hydrogen and so on.....

Calculate the volume in milliliters of a 0.420mol / L barlum chlorate solution that contains 25.0 g of barium chlorate (Ba(ClO 3

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer: The volume of barium chlorate is 195.65 mL

Explanation:

To calculate the volume of solution, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

Given mass of barium chlorate = 25.0 g

Molar mass of barium chlorate = 304.23 g/mol

Molarity of solution = 0.420 mol/L

Volume of solution = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.420mol/L=\frac{25.0\times 1000}{304.23\times V}\\\\V=\frac{25.0\times 1000}{304.23\times 0.420}=195.65mL$

Hence, the volume of barium chlorate is 195.65 mL
