What is the correct notation for a calcium ion whose outershell is a full octet?

Chemistry

horsena [70]3 years ago

<span>Ca^(2+). Calcium is an alkaline earth metal with an atomic number of 20. Its electronic configuration is (2, 8, 8, 2). From the electronic configuration it would be observed that calcium has two valence electrons. Calcium shares these two electrons with non metals like sulphur in an ionic bond to obtain an outer shell which is full octet. Let me use Sulphur. When calcium gives out its two valence electrons its electronic configuration becomes (2, 8, 8) thereby obtaining a stable out shell and the calcium ion becomes Ca^(2+). The sulphur also obtains a stable octet because it has 6 valence electron initially.</span>

To prepare a solution of BF4-(aq), HF(g) is bubbled into a solution containing 50.0 g of H3BO3 in a 1 L reaction vessel. Calcula
Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Explanation:

The chemical reaction involved is as follows

H₃BO₃ + 4HF = HBF₄ + 3H₂O

1 mol                  1 mol

mol weight of H₃BO₃ is 61.84 gm

50g = 50 / 61.84 mol.

= 0.8 mol.

.8 mol of H₃BO₃ will form .8 mol of BF₄⁻ ion .

a sample container of carbon monoxide occupies a volume of 422 ml at a pressure of 785 torr and a temperature of 242 k. what wou
MrRissso [65]

The temperature if the volume were changed to 225 ml at a pressure of 785 torrs is 129K.

Pressure is constant.

so

V1 /  T1 = v2 / T2

so

T2 = V2 T1 / V1

T2 =  225 x 242 / 422

T2 =  129K

What is temperature?

Temperature is a measure of hotness or coldness expressed on several scales, including Fahrenheit and Celsius. Temperature indicates the direction in which thermal energy spontaneously flows - ie, from a hotter body (one at a higher temperature) to a colder body (another at a lower temperature).

The Fahrenheit temperature scale (°F) is used in the United States and some other English-speaking countries. The Celsius temperature scale (°C) is standard in almost all countries that have adopted the metric system and  is widely used in science. The Kelvin (K) scale, the absolute temperature scale is recognized as the international standard for scientific temperature measurement.
