<span>PbO Let's look at each of the 4 compounds and see what's needed. PbO. * Oxygen has a valance shell that's missing 2 electrons and wants to get those 2 elections. Lead donates them, so you have a Lead (II) ions. This is a correct choice. PbCl4 * Chlorine wants to grab 1 electron to fill it's valance shell and Lead donates that election. However, there's 4 chlorine atoms and every one of them wants and electron, and lead is donating all 4 of the desired electrons making the Lead (IV) ion. So this is a bad choice. Pb2O * Oxygen still wants 2 electrons and gets them from the lead. But there's 2 lead atoms and each of them donates 1 election making for 2 Lead(I) ions. So this too is a bad choice. Pb2S * Sulfur is in the same column of the periodic table as oxygen and if this compound were to exist would have similar properties as Pb2O and would have Lead(I) ions. So this is a bad choice.</span>

Given the heat change per mole for the combustion of methanol (-726 kJ/mol), predict the heat change that would occur if 0.200 m

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

-145.2kJ

Explanation:

Enthalpy is an extensive property as its value depends on the amount of substance present in the system.

If the enthalpy for one mole of methanol = -726 kJ/mol;

The Enthalpy for 0.2 mol is given as;

Enthalpy = 0.200 * 726

Enthalpy = -145.2kJ

It would take -145.2kJ for 0.200 mol of methanol to undego the combustion reaction.

Write the charge and full ground-state electron configuration of the monatomic ion most likely to be formed by each:

Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Part A:

Charge is $P^{3-}$

Configuration is $1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^6$

Part B:

Charge is $Mg^{2+}$

Configuration is $1s^2 2s^22p^6$

Part C:

Charge is $Se^{2-}$

Configuration is $1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^6$

Explanation:

Monatomic ions:

These ions consist of only one atom. If they have more than one atom then they are poly atomic ions.

Examples of Mono Atomic ions: $Na^+, Cl^-, Ca^2^+$

Part A:

For P:

Phosphorous (P) has 15 electrons so it require 3 more electrons to stabilize itself.

Charge is $P^{3-}$

Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

$1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^6$

Part B:

For Mg:

Magnesium (Mg) has 12 electrons so it requires 2 electrons to lose to achieve stable configuration.

Charge is $Mg^{2+}$

Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

$1s^2 2s^22p^6$

Part C:

For Se:

Selenium (Se) has 34 electrons and requires two electrons to be stable.

Charge is $Se^{2-}$

Full ground-state electron configuration of the mono atomic ion:

$1s^2 2s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^6$

Can aromatic compounds belong to other classes of compounds?

Elena L [17]

They certainly can. However, they have other groups that are used to classify a compound.
