Fluorine (F) and bromine (Br) are in the same group on the periodic table. How do atoms of these elements compare when they form

Explanation:

Both fluorine and chlorine are non-metals and since they belong to the same group that means they have same number of valence electrons.

That is, fluorine and chlorine has 7 valence electrons. So, in order to complete their octet they need one electron. Hence, they will readily react.

For example, Br will readily react with sodium (Na) atom and results in the formation of NaBr.

           Br^{-} + Na^{+} \rightarrow NaBr

Answer is: Both a fluorine atom and a bromine atom gain one electron, and both atoms become stable.

Fluorine and bromine are in group 17 in Periodic table of elements. Group 17 (halogens) elements are in group 17: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br) and iodine (I). They are very reactive and easily form many compounds.

Halogens need to gain one electron to have electron cofiguration like next to it noble gas.

Fluorine has atomic number 9, it means it has 9 protons and 9 electrons.

Fluorine tends to have eight electrons in outer shell like neon (noble gas) and gains one electron in chemical reaction.

Electron configuration of fluorine: ₉F 1s² 2s² 2p⁵.

Electron configuration of neon: ₁₀Ne 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

The teacher tells your group to make a stock solution of sodium chloride, and then diluting it to
sergejj [24]

The idea here is that you need to figure out how many moles of magnesium chloride,

MgCl

2

, you need to have in the target solution, then use this value to determine what volume of the stock solution would contain this many moles.

As you know, molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute, which in your case is magnesium chloride, divided by liters of solution.

c

=

n

V

So, how many moles of magnesium chloride must be present in the target solution?

c

=

n

V

⇒

n

=

c

⋅

V

n

=

0.158 M

⋅

250.0

⋅

10

−

3

L

=

0.0395 moles MgCl

2

Now determine what volume of the target solution would contain this many moles of magnesium chloride

c

=

n

V

⇒

V

=

n

c

V

=

0.0395

moles

3.15

moles

L

=

0.01254 L

Rounded to three sig figs and expressed in mililiters, the volume will be

V

=

12.5 mL

So, to prepare your target solution, use a

12.5-mL

sample of the stock solution and add enough water to make the volume of the total solution equal to

250.0 mL

.

This is equivalent to diluting the

12.5-mL

sample of the stock solution by a dilution factor of

20

.

A mole equals 6.02 x 10^23 . Answer these questions below.
siniylev [52]

Answer:

1. 1.25 mol ants x 6.02*10^23 ants/1 mol ants = 7.53*10^23 ants

2. 4.92*10^26 pencils x 1 mol pencils/6.02*10^23 pencils = 817 mol pencils

3. 0.26 mol molecules x 6.02*10^23 molecules/1 mol molecules = 1.6*10^23 molecules

4. 3.46*10^19 molecules x 1 mol molecules/6.02*10^23 molecules = 5.75*10^-5 mol molecules

5. 5.3*10^20 atoms x 1 mol atoms/6.02*10^23 atoms = 8.8 mol atoms

6. 0.11 mol atoms x 6.02*10^23 atoms/1 mol atoms = 6.6*10^22 atoms

I would suggest looking into "dimensional analysis" for help with this type of material. Dimensional analysis will stick with you all throughout chemistry, so picking it up will be extremely beneficial.
