Complete the three words. The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has g....................... , l.............

fgiga [73]

Answer:Gained, Lost , Shared

Explanation:

The oxidation state tells you how many electrons an atom has GAINED.................. , LOST....................... , or SHARED........................ , in forming a compound.

Oxidation state is defined as the the total number of electrons that an atom gains or loses when forming a chemical bond with another atom.

----To form an ionic bond for example in NaCl, Na, with 11 electrons and one valence electron in its outermost shell donates or lose that valence electron to Chlorine with 17 electron and 7 in its outermost shell. Therefore Sodium, Na acquires the +1 oxidaton state to become stable and Chlorine acquires the -1 oxidation state to become stable forming the NaCl compound.

To form a covalent compound, There must be sharing of electrons between atoms.For example, in PCl3, The phosphorous atom with atomic number 15 shares its three unpaired electrons with the single valence electrons of three chlorine atoms. making the four molecules to attain stability with Phosphorous having +3 and the chlorine atoms having -1 oxidation states

Problem Page A gas made up of atoms escapes through a pinhole 0.225 times as fast as H2 gas. Write the chemical formula of the g

Tcecarenko [31]

To determine what gas is this, we use Graham's Law of Effusion where it relates the rates of effusion of gases and their molar masses. We do as follows:

r1/r2 = √(M2 / M1)

Let 1 be the the unkown gas and 2 the H2 gas.

r1/r2 = 0.225
M2 = 2.02 g/mol

0.225 = √(2.02 / M1)
M1 = 39.90 g/mol

From the periodic table of elements, most likely, the gas is argon.

A student has two samples of NaCl, each one from a different source. Assume that the only potential contaminant in each sample i

bija089 [108]

Answer:

The correct option is;

A. Which sample has the higher purity

Explanation:

The information given relate to the presence of two samples of NaCl, from different sources

The only potential contaminant in each of the sources = KCl

The content of the sample = NaCl

The molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol

The molar mass of KCl = 74.5513 g/mol

Let the number of moles of KCl in the sample = X

For a given mass of NaCl, KCl mixture, we have;

The molar mass of potassium = 39.0983 g/mol

The molar mass of chlorine = 35.453 g/mol

The molar mass of sodium ≈ 23 g/mol

Therefore;

Each mole of KCl, will yield 35.453 g/mol per 74.5513 g/mol of KCl

While each mole of NaCl will yield 35.453 g/mol per 58.44 g/mol of NaCl

Therefore, the pure sodium chloride sample will yield more chlorine per unit mass of sample.

As such if the two samples have the same mass, the sample with the contaminant of KCl will yield less mass of chlorine per unit mass of the sample, from which the student will be able to tell the purity of the solution.

The sample with the higher purity will yield a higher mass chlorine per unit mass of the sample.

Nitrogen can ionically bond with an unknown element X from group 2. How many ions of element X are required to create a stable i

Nataliya [291]

I can tell you there certainly is enough information, so we can eliminate the fourth option right away.
Group two elements tend to form 2+ cations, and nitrogen forms 3- anions. To make a stable substance, we need those to cancel out. Calling the group 2 element X:
N2X3 would cause the charge to be 2(-3) + 3(2) = 0
This would mean 3 ions of X and 2 anions of N would be a stable ionic compound.
