When chlorine and magnesium react chemically, how many chlorine atoms will combine with one magnesium atom?

Lesechka [4]3 years ago

Magnesium is divalent. This means that one magnesium atom needs to lose 2 electrons in order to become stable.

Chlorine, on the other hand, is monovalent. This means that one chlorine atom needs to gain one electron in order to become stable.

Based on this, one magnesium atom will combine with two chlorine atoms, where the magnesium loses two electrons, one for each chlorine.

The formula of the compound formed is: MgCl2

How many liters are in 5.98 moles of nitrogen gas at STP?
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is c) 134L

Explanation:

We use the formula PV =nRT. The normal conditions of temperature and pressure are 273K and 1 atm, we use the gas constant = 0, 082 l atm / K mol.

1 atm x   V = 5, 98 mol x 0, 082 l atm / K mol x 273 K

V = 5, 98 mol x 0, 082 l atm / K mol x 273 K / 1 atm

V = 133, 86828 l

If the natural abundance of Ag-107 is 51.84% what is the abundance of Ag-109?
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

48.16%

Well, both abundances have to total 100% so is Ag-107 is 51.84%, then Ag-109 must be 100 – 51.84 = 48.16%.

Hope This Helps :)

PLSSSSSSSS help !!!!! One mole of an element contains which of the following?
irina [24]

Answer:

6.02 × 10²³ atoms

Explanation:

The number 6.02 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number. It is the number of atoms,  ions and molecules in one gram atoms of an element, one gram ions of substance and one gram molecule of a compound.

For example:

32 g of oxygen = one mole = 6.02 × 10²³  atoms O.

1.008 g of hydrogen = one mole = 6.02 × 10²³  atoms of H.

or

18 g of H₂O =one mole = 6.02 × 10²³  molecules of H₂O

44 g of CO₂ = one mole = 6.02 × 10²³  molecules of CO₂

or

62 g of NO₃⁻ = one mole of NO₃⁻ = 6.02 × 10²³  ions of NO₃⁻

In the first step of glycolysis, the given two reactions are coupled. reaction 1: glucose + P i ⟶ glucose - 6 - phosphate + H 2
Alika [10]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the process in the field of chemistry in which a specific glucose molecule is broken down to become two or more molecules of pyruvic acid or pyruvate. The process and procedure is a metabolic multi-step pathway that happens in the cytoplasm of plant cells, animal cells, and the cells of various microorganisms.

The answer to the question above is:

1) nonspontaneous because deltaG is positive

2) glucose + ATP --> glucose-6-phosphate + ADP

3) -16.7 kJ/mol

4) yes, because deltaG is negative

A student prepares a aqueous solution of butanoic acid . Calculate the fraction of butanoic acid that is in the dissociated form
ella [17]

Answer:

15.4%

Explanation:

If Ka = 0.54 mM = 1.51x10⁻⁵

Then;

C₄H₈O₂               -------->            C₄H₇O₂⁻          +           H⁺

I                    0.54x10⁻³                             0                                0

E                   0.54x10⁻³(1-x)                      0.54x10⁻³x                0.54x10⁻³x

Recall that x is the percentage degree of dissociation

From the ICE table;

Ka = [C₄H₇O₂⁻] [ H⁺]/[C₄H₈O₂]

1.51x10⁻⁵=(0.54x10⁻³x) (0.54x10⁻³x)/ 0.54x10⁻³(1-x)  

1.51x10⁻⁵ = 0.54x10⁻³x^2/1-x

1.51x10⁻⁵(1-x) = 0.54x10⁻³x^2

1.51x10⁻⁵ - 1.51x10⁻⁵x = 0.54x10⁻³x^2

Hence;

0.54x10⁻³x^2 + 1.51x10⁻⁵x - 1.51x10⁻⁵=0

x^2 + 0.028x - 0.028 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation here;

x = 0.154 or −0.182

Ignoring the negative result, x = 0.154

Hence, fraction of butanoic acid that is in the dissociated form in this solution = 15.4%
