How many atoms of chlorine are in the carbon tetrachloride molecule?

Chemistry

zaharov [31]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

4 atoms of Chlorine

Explanation:

This is actually easy to explain,

First we have here a type of nomenclature. This one is the sistematic nomenclature, and begins by naming the number of atoms that one element has, beggining for the non metal first, and then the metal or the non metal acting like a metal. In this case, the Carbon is acting like a metal.

The number of atoms are named by a prefix of the number. Each number has a determined prefix. Here are some of them:

one = 1 = mono

two = 2 = bi or di

three = 3 = tri

Four = 4 = tetra

Five = 5 = penta

Six = 6 = Hexa

So tetrachloride, means that we have 4 atoms of chlorine in the molecule and the molecule is this one: CCl4

What suffix do the halogen group use
sesenic [268]

Answer:    That is, the suffix of the compound is unchanged by the presence of the halogen, and the halogen is included as a prefix in the name. In acyl halides, the suffix -oyl chloride is appended to the name. For example, CH3CH2COCl is called propanoyl chloride.

How many liters of ammonia (NH3), at 3.2 atm and 23C, must be used to produce of 2.65 grams of calcium hydride (CaH2). 6 Ca(s)
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    V = 0.32 L

Explanation:

Data

Volume of NH₃ = ?

P = 3.2 atm

T = 23°C

mass of CaH₂ = 2.65 g

Balanced chemical reaction

               6Ca  +  2NH₃   ⇒   3CaH₂  +  Ca₃N₂

Process

1.- Convert the mass of CaH₂ to moles

-Calculate the molar mass of CaH₂

 CaH₂ = 40 + 2 = 42 g

                             42 g ------------------ 1 mol

                              2.65 g --------------  x

                              x = (2.65 x 1)/42

                              x = 0.063 moles

2.- Calculate the moles of NH₃

                     2 moles of NH₃ --------------- 3 moles of CaH₂

                      x                        --------------- 0.063 moles

                                x = (0.063 x 2) / 3

                                x = 0.042 moles of NH₃

3.- Convert the °C to °K

Temperature = 23°C + 273

                      = 296°K

4.- Calculate the volume of NH₃

-Use the ideal gas law

              PV = nRT

-Solve for V

                V = nRT / P

-Substitution

                V = (0.042)(0.082)(296) / 3.2

-Simplification

               V = 1.019 / 3.2

-Result

               V = 0.32 L
