Answer:
The ratio 35Cl/37Cl = 3/1
Explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u> Data given
Chlorine has 2 isotopes:
- mass = 35 g/mol
- mass = 37 g/mol
Average molar mass of chlorine = 35.5 grams
<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate the % of isotopes
35x + 37y = 35.5
x+y = 1 or x = 1-y
35(1-y) + 37y = 35.5
35-35y +37y = 35.5
0.5 = 2y
y = 0.25 = 37Cl
x = 1 - 0.25 = 0.75 = 35Cl
<u>Step 3: </u>
The ratio 35Cl/37Cl = 0.75/0.25 = 3/1
Answer:
fluorine (F), and chlorine (Cl) because they are both halogens and belong to the same group in the periodic table
Explanation:
The pair of non - metals in the elements given that will have similar properties are chlorine and Fluorine.
This is because they both are elements commonly known by the group name Halogens which belong to group 7A.
Properties of halogens include;
- They are very reactive, have single covalent bonds and readily form other compounds.
- In the gaseous state, they will form diatomic covalent molecules.
Whereas, helium is a group 8 element, oxygen is a group 6 element while carbon is a group 4 element.
It would be 3C + 4H2 -> C3H8
They are very stable (not reactive).
This is because their outer shell has a total of 8 valence electrons. All elements strive to get towards a full outer shell, but since these elements already have a full outer shell, they are fairly unreactive.
Answer:
there are 6.022*1023 atoms
Explanation:
32 g S * (1 mole S/32 g S) * (6.022*1023 atoms/1 mole S)= 6.022*1023 atoms
