Why must there be two chlorine atoms for every one calcium atom

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nady [450]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

There must be two Chlorine atoms for every one Calcium atom in order to fulfill Chlorine's octet rule and pair Calcium's unpaired electrons.

Explanation:

Calcium has two unpaired electrons in its Lewis dot structure, while Chlorine has one unpaired electron.

<em>So why can't we just make a double bond for </em><em>one</em><em> Chlorine?</em>

Chlorine has seven valence electrons, so once it shares electrons with Calcium, the octet rule is accomplished, and no more pairs can be made.

A compound is formed when 9.03 g
NikAS [45]

The percent composition  of this compound :

Mg = 72.182%

N = 27.818%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

9.03 g  Mg

3.48 g  N

Required

The percent composition

Solution

Proust stated the Comparative Law that compounds are formed from elements with the same Mass Comparison so that the compound has a fixed composition of elements

Total mass of the compound :

= 9.03 g + 3.48 g

= 12.51 g

The percent composition :

Mg : 9.03/ 12.51 g x 100% = 72.182%

N : 3.48 / 12.51 g x 100% = 27.818%

#2: A gas at unknown pressure and a volume of 66 cm has its pressure changed to 150 kPa. The new volume
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

<h2>377 kPa</h2>

Explanation:

The original pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

Since we're finding the original pressure

P_1 =  \frac{P_2V_2}{V_1}  \\

150 kPa = 150,000 Pa

We have

P_1 =  \frac{150000 \times 166}{66}  =  \frac{24900000}{66}  \\  = 377272.72...

We have the final answer as

<h3>377 kPa</h3>

Hope this helps you

If the volume of the original sample in Part A ( P1 = 242 torr , V1 = 27.0 L ) changes to 80.0 L , without a change in the tempe
Brrunno [24]

The new pressure is 81.675 torr

Since temperature and moles are held constant, we use Boyle's Law:

A gas law known as Boyle's law asserts that a gas's pressure is inversely proportional to its volume when it is held at a fixed temperature and of a given mass.

To put it another way, as long as the temperature and volume of the gas remain constant, the pressure and volume of the gas are inversely proportional to one another.

The Anglo-Irish chemist Robert Boyle proposed Boyle's law in the year 1662.

P1V1=P2V2. Simply plug in your values. The units can remain in torr. Converting to atmospheres is not needed.

(242 torr)(27.0 L)=P2(80.0 L)

P2=[(242)(27)]/80 = 81.675 torr

Hence The new pressure is 81.675 torr
