3 Chlorine ions are required to bond with one aluminum ion.

In ionic bonds, metals atoms loses all its outermost shell electrons to form a cation. While, non metal atoms gains however many electrons in order to make its outermost electron shell be 8 (or 2 if there's only one shell).

Therefore, form the periodic table, we can see that aluminum has a atomic number of 13, which makes its electron arrangement be 2,8,3. So, in order to form a aluminum ion, an Al atom must lose 3 electrons. On the other hand, Chlorine has a atomic number of 17, which means it has the electron configuration of 2,8,7. It has to gain only 1 electron to have 8 outermost shell electron.

Thereofre, 3 Chlorine atom are required to gain all 3 electrons given out by just 1 aluminum ion.

If you want to find the force needed to pull a small car up a ramp, it would be best to use..
Katyanochek1 [597]

The answer is; A

By using a spring and determining the tension applied on the string by the car, it is possible to deduce the force. Determine the spring's initial tension as well as spring rate and working loads;

Rate = (Load – Initial Tension) ÷ Travel

k = (L – IT) ÷ T

What is the minimum number of moles of potassium permanganate that would be required to completely oxidize 1.0 moles of benzalde
makvit [3.9K]
Mole ratio :

<span>5 C</span>₆<span>H</span>₆<span>CHO + 2 KMnO</span>₄<span> + 6 H</span>⁺ <span>= 5 C</span>₆<span>H</span>₆<span>COOH + 2 Mn</span>²⁺<span> + 3 H</span>₂<span>O + 2 K</span>⁺

5 moles C₆H₆CHO ------------------ 2 moles KMnO₄
1.0 moles C₆H₆CHO ---------------- ( moles of KMnO₄ )

moles of KMnO₄ = 1.0 x 2 / 5

moles of KMnO₄ = 2 / 5

= 0.40 moles of KMnO4

hope this helps!
