<span>the arrhenius acid definition is when a substance that will dissociate in water and will form H+ ions. for HCl the chemical equation to satisfy as an arhenius acid definition is, the HCl will dissociate to form H + and Cl- ions. in equation form: HCl ----> H+ + Cl-

What is the relationship between elements ,atoms ,and compounds
Svetach [21]
Elements are separate particles that contain the properties of only one type of element (pure substance) and an atom represents that element as the smallest non divisible particle that retains the properties of that element. Compounds can be formed by conjoining different atoms together in different ratios and shapes, so a combination of elements.

What is the transfer of electrons in Al + Cl = AlCl3
otez555 [7]

Answer:

3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.

Explanation

This is a redox reaction.

  • Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
  • Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
  • An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet or duplet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
  • [Ne]= (1s²) (2s² 2p⁶)

A combination of both the reactions( Half-reactions) leads to a redox reaction.

Let us look at initial configurations of Al and Cl

[Al]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹

[Cl]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵

Hence, Al can lose 3 electrons to achieve octet config.

and, Cl can gain 1e to achieve nearest noble gas config. [Ar]

This reaction can be rewritten, by clearly mentioning the oxidation states of all the entities involved.

Al⁰ + Cl⁰ → (Al⁺³)(Cl⁻)₃

Here, Aluminum is undergoing an oxidation(i.e loss of electrons) from: 0→(+3)

Chlorine undergoes a reduction half reaction (i.e gain of electrons) from: 0→(-1). There are 3 such chlorine atoms, hence 3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.

Oksana_A [137]

If the glasses and glove were wrong then I would chose the fire extinguisher and the power source should be the correct answer.

That's just what I would do though.

What is the difference between a balanced equation and an unbalanced equation
Nadya [2.5K]
In balanced equation there are same number of atoms in each element on both sides of the equation. unbalanced equation is when there are different number of atoms in each element on the both sides
