It's the law! Matter cannot be created or destroyed in chemical reactions. This is the law of conservation of mass. In every chemical reaction, the same mass of matter must end up in the products as started in the reactants.
Answer:
4 atoms of Chlorine
Explanation:
This is actually easy to explain,
First we have here a type of nomenclature. This one is the sistematic nomenclature, and begins by naming the number of atoms that one element has, beggining for the non metal first, and then the metal or the non metal acting like a metal. In this case, the Carbon is acting like a metal.
The number of atoms are named by a prefix of the number. Each number has a determined prefix. Here are some of them:
one = 1 = mono
two = 2 = bi or di
three = 3 = tri
Four = 4 = tetra
Five = 5 = penta
Six = 6 = Hexa
So tetrachloride, means that we have 4 atoms of chlorine in the molecule and the molecule is this one: CCl4
Answer:
d orbitals
Explanation:
Transition metals are generally known as d-block elements. The electronic configuration of all transition elements finish in a d-orbital weather they are first row, second row or third row transition elements. This is the thread that holds all the elements of the transition series together.
This is why elements of the transition series are generally called the d-block elements.
Answer:
c) more OH⁻ ions than H₃O⁺ ions
Explanation:
A substance with a PH of 9 implies that it has more OH⁻ ions than H₃O⁺ ions.
Such substances are said to be an alkaline or a base.
A base is a substance the produces excess hydroxyl ion in aqueous solutions.
An acid will produce excess hydroxonium ions in a solution.
So, the pH scale is used to indicate whether a substance is an acid or base or non of them.
Acids have pH of less than 7
Bases have pH of > 7
