Empirical formula is CCl.

Since the molar mass is provided, it is safe to assume that the empirical formula is not equal to the molecular formula.

We need to get the empirical weight to determine the multiple needed to arrive to the correct molecular formula.

Atom          Number in Molecule            Atomic Weight        Total Mass
C                              1                            12.0107                  12.0107
Cl                              1                            35.453                   <u> 35.453</u>
                                                          total empirical weight    47.4637

Molecular weight / Empirical Weight
284.77 g/mol / 47.46 g/mol = 6 - the multiple needed to be multiplied with the empirical formula to get the molecular formula.

C has a molecular number of 1 =>  1 * 6 = 6  Thus C₆
Cl has a molecular number of 1 => 1 * 6 = 6 Thus Cl₆

Molecular Formula is C₆CL₆

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

He could be blindfolded and know which was his and which was his sister's. All he would need to do is pick them both up and if they were too big then pick them up one at a time. The lumber might make it harder to tell, but this is a question about physical properties.

So there is a change in mass which for the purpose of this question should be  quite different. His sister's ought to be much lighter than his. He would find it easier to pick up.

calcium has atomic number of 20 how many electrons of a calcium atom are involved in chemical bonding
Lelu [443]

The answer is 2 electrons.


The electron configuration of calcium is 2:8:8:2

Calcium has two electrons in its outermost shell. These are its valence electrons and are the ones used in bonding with other elements.  Valence electrons of an atom are those electrons that are in its outer energy shell or that are available for bonding.

Calcium is a metal. When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms forming ions. The resulting compound is known  as an ionic compound.

For example, when calcium metal reacts with chlorine gas,   calcium gives up its two valence electrons and Chlorine accepts them resulting in a new substance called calcium chloride in which the two elements have ended up forming ionic bonds.
