Molecular formula tells you what elements the atoms are and how many moles and atoms are attributed to each element. Molecular model how the elements/ atoms are bonded together

How many moles of chloride ions are there in 2 moles of calcium chloride?
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

  • <em>There are </em><u><em>4 moles</em></u><em> of chloride ions in 2 moles of calcium chloride.</em>

Explanation:

Start by writing the chemical formula of calcium chloride.

The suffix -ide in chloride means that chlorine is working as the ion Cl⁻, this is with oxidation state -1.

Calcium, being an alkaline earth metal, uses oxidation state +2, Ca²⁺

Then, two atoms of Cl are combined with one atom of calcium, because in this way each Cl atom will accept one electron from a Ca atom, which will donate its two valence electrons.

That is indicated in the chemical formula with subscripts: <u><em>CaCl₂</em></u>, meaning that each formula-unit of calcium chloride has 2 ions of chlorine and 1 ions of calcium, or twice the number of moles of chloride ion.

  • 1 mol CaCl₂ : 1 mol Ca⁺ : 2 mol Cl⁻

       ⇒ 2 mol CaCl₂ : 2 mol Ca⁺ : 4 mol Cl⁻

Hence, there are 4 moles of chloride ions in 2 moles of calcium chloride.

Explain what it means for a reaction to be endothermic and what would happen to the temperature recorded by a thermometer in an
7nadin3 [17]
An endothermic reaction needs energy to proceed, such energy is usually taken from the environment surrounding the reaction. In the typical case this energy is expressed as  heat. Heat is an state of atomic activity, that energy is transferred to an ENDOthermic reaction so the initial threshold of reaction is overcome and the final reaction can occur.

Which answer choice lists the number and type of elements in a compound in the way that is close to their actual arrangement?
alexandr1967 [171]

The chemical formula of a compound express the atoms by which the molecule is formed and the ratio of the atoms in which they are combined.

The space filling model of a compound describe the electron density in the compound of each atom.

The ball and stick arrangement of a compound describe the way in which the molecules are present in three dimensions.

The structural formula state the number of atoms present in the molecule, the type of element or atom present in the molecule and the way in which they are arranged closely which is the bond.

Thus only the structural formula only will cover all the options as stated.

35.0 grams of nitrogen gas reacts with 60.0 grams of hydrogen gas: N2 + 3H2--&gt; 2NH3
Misha Larkins [42]

Explanation:

Moles of N2 = 35.0g / (28g/mol) = 1.25mol

Moles of H2 = 60.0g / (2g/mol) = 30.0mol

Since 1.25mol * 3 < 30.0mol, nitrogen is limiting.

Moles of NH3 = 1.25mol * 2 = 2.50mol.

Mass of NH3 = 2.50mol * (17g/mol) = 42.5g.

30.0mol - 1.25mol * 3 = 26.25mol.

Excess mass of H2

= 26.25mol * (2g/mol) = 52.5g.
