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

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

Examine the given reaction. NH4NO3(s) → NH4+(aq) + NO3–(aq) ΔH° = 25.45 kJ/mol ΔS° = 108.7 J/mol·K Which of the given is correct

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

B)−6,942 J /mol

Explanation:

At constant temperature and pressure, you cand define the change in Gibbs free energy, ΔG, as:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

Where ΔH is enthalpy, T absolute temperature and ΔS change in entropy.

Replacing (25°C = 273 + 25 = 298K; 25.45kJ/mol = 25450J/mol):

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

ΔG = 25450J/mol - 298K×108.7J/molK

ΔG = -6942.6J/mol

Right solution is:

<h3>B)−6,942 J /mol</h3>

Tin has ten stable isotopes. The heaviest, 124Sn, makes up 5.80% of naturally occuring tin atoms. How many atoms of 124Sn are pr

matrenka [14]

The average atomic mass of Sn is 118.71 g/mol

the percentage of heaviest Sn is 5.80%

the given mass of Sn is 82g

The total moles of Sn will be = mass / atomic mass = 82/118.71=0.691

Total atoms of Sn in 82g = $6.023X10^{23}X0.691=4.16X10^{23}$

the percentage of heaviest Sn is 5.80%

So the total atoms of $Sn^{124}$ = 5.80% X $4.16X10^{23}$

Total atoms of $Sn^{124}$ = $2.41X10^{22}$ atoms

the mass of $Sn^{124}$ will be = $\frac{2.41X10^{22}X124}{6.023X10^{23}}=4.96g$

A sample of gas consists of 4.0 moles, and exists at stp. What is the volume of the gas?

faust18 [17]

Answer:

The volume of the gas is 89.60

Explanation:

When converting from moles to volume, you would multiply by 22.4 because 1 mole equals 22.4 liters at STP.

So...

4.0 moles * 22.4 liters =

89.60 liters
