Question 26 (1 point)

Chemistry
1 answer:
g100num [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The correct option is;

Bromine will gain 1 valence electron to become a negative ion

Explanation:

Bromine can be found in period 4 in group 17 of the periodic table and is an halogen

The electron configuration of bromine can be presented as follows;

Electronic configuration 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁶3d¹⁰4s²4p⁵

Therefore, an atom of bromine has 2 + 5 or 7 electrons in its outermost shell, which makes it have one less electron to complete a full octet structure and therefore, bromine has a strong affinity for electron to complete its octet structure and it is thus a strong oxidizing agent.

When bromine enters into a chemical reaction and gains the one valence electron it becomes a negatively charged ion.

A certain isotope has 53 protons 78 neutrons and 53 electrons. What is its atomic number? What is the mass number of this atom?
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

  1. 53 protons
  2. 131g
  3. Iodine
  4. Halogens

Explanation:

atomic no. = no. of protons

= 53 proton

mass = no. of protons + no. of

neutrons

= 53 + 78

= 131

The molecular formula for butane is C4H10. Determine the percent composition for
masya89 [10]

%Mass

Ar C = 12 g/mol, Mr C₄H₁₀ = 58 g/mol, Ar H = 1 g/mol

\tt C=\dfrac{4.12}{58}\times 100\%=82.8\%\\\\H=100\%-82.8\%=17.2\%

or

\tt H=\dfrac{10.1}{58}\times 100\%= 17.2\%

how many moles of iodine should be added to 750 grams of carbon tetrachloride to prepare a 0.24 m solution
aleksley [76]

Answer:

0.18 mol

Explanation:

Given data

  • Mass of carbon tetrachloride (solvent): 750 g
  • Molality of the solution: 0.24 m
  • Moles of iodine (solute): ?

Step 1: Convert the mass of the solvent to kilograms

We will use the relationship 1 kg = 1,000 g.

750g \times \frac{1kg}{1,000g} =0.750kg

Step 2: Calculate the moles of the solute

The molality is equal to the moles of solute divided by the kilograms of solvent. Then,

m = \frac{moles\ of\ solute }{kilograms\ of\ solvent} \\moles\ of\ solute = m \times kilograms\ of\ solvent = \frac{0.24mol}{kg}  \times 0.750kg = 0.18 mol

3. At the end of a warm summer day, imagine you are jumping from the 80°F air into an
djyliett [7]

Answer:

  • <u>1. Since the temperature of your body is higher than the temperature of the air and of the water, heat will flow from your body to the air and pool.</u>

<u></u>

  • <u>2. The pool feels cooler than air because the water can absorb heat energy faster than the air, due to liquids are better conductors than gases.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Heat always flows from warmer substances to colder ones.

The normal body temperature is 98ºF. Therefore, the heat will flow from your body to the air and pool, which are at a lower temperature of 80ºF. In both cases, you will lose thermal energy and the external parts of your body will cool down.

The difference between both cases is in the heat conduction capacity of both air and water.

Liquids (and solids) are better <em>thermal conductors </em>than gases because the conduction of heat occurs as result of the direct contact between the particles of matter: the atoms or molecules in hot matter vibrate faster than their neighbors and transmit them kinetic energy by direct contact.

Therefore, the liquid water in the swimming pool, at the same temperature than the air, will be able to absorb more heat in the same time from the body.

In conclusion, the body will cool down faster in water than in air which is why the pool feels cooler than air.

Which formula represents the compound commonly known as phosphine with iupac name phosphorus trihydride? ph ph2 ph3 ph4
zubka84 [21]

C. PH3 represents a compound commonly known as phosphine, whose IUPAC name is phosphorus trihydride.

<h3>What type of bond is PH3?</h3>

The electronegativity of PH3 found in the Periodic Table of the Period attracts covalent electron pairs and creates covalent bonds. However, because the electrons are not bound, asymmetrical rate distribution occurs. Therefore, PH3 is a polar molecule with a non-polar covalent bond and currently has no polar bond.

<h3 /><h3>What defines a covalent bond?</h3>

A covalent bond consists of sharing one or more electron pairs between two atoms. These electrons are attracted to two nuclei at the same time. Covalent bonds are formed when the difference in electronegativity between two atoms is too small for electron transfer to form ions.
