A mineral is a naturally occurring, inorganic solid with a definite chemical composition and a crystalline structure formed by geological processes. A rock is an aggregate of one or more minerals whereas a rock may also include organic remains and mineraloids.
Given :
A 10.99 g sample of NaBr contains 22.34% Na by mass.
To Find :
How many grams of sodium does a 9.77g sample of sodium bromine contain.
Solution :
By law of constant composition , in any given chemical compound, the elements always combine in the same proportion with each other.
Therefore , percentage of Na by mass in NaBr will be same for every amount .
Percentage of Na in 9.77 g NaBr is 22.34 % too .
Gram of Na = 
.
Hence , this is the required solution .
179.4 g will be formed from 123g of iron
Answer:
1
Explanation:
An unknown element, X, is a nonmetal that contains seven valence electrons. Element X most likely forms <u>1 </u>covalent bond.
Nonmetals gain the electron to complete the octet and form anion. Consider the example of halogen.
When it combine with another halogen atom they form covalent bond. There are seven valance electrons in outer most orbital of halogen atom. By combining with other halogen atom they form one covalent bond and complete the octet.
For example:
Cl atom combine with other Cl atom and form Cl₂.
