Stannous(IV) chloride is a substance of molecular structure, so it is a liquid and volatile. Stannous(II) chloride is a substance of a crystal structure, therefore, is in the solid state at room temperature.

How would you seprate a mixture of sand and salt?
lys-0071 [83]
First, you mix the salt and sand with water, so the salt dissolves. Next, you filter the sand out, so you have the slat water and sand separated. Then, you evaporate the water, leaving the salt behind.

Based on the activity series, which one of the reactions below will occur (Spontaneous)? A. Mn (s) + NiCl2 (aq) → MnCl2 (aq) + N
kap26 [50]

Answer:

Mn (s) + NiCl2 (aq) → MnCl2 (aq) + Ni

Explanation:

The order of displacement of metals from aqueous solution by another metal is defined by the activity series of metals.

The activity series arranges metals in order of reactivity and increasing electrode potentials. The less negative the electrode potential of a metal is, the less reactive it is and the lower it is found in the activity series.

Nickel has a less negative electrode potential than manganese hence it is displaced from an aqueous solution of its salt by manganese spontaneously.

How many molecules are in 4.50 moles of H2O?
alisha [4.7K]
C can be the only correct answer - 6.023 x 10^23 is the amount of molecules in a mol of an element. 4.5 x 6.023 x 10^23 can not equal anything but C.

4.5 x 6.023 x 10^23 = 2.71035 x 10^24

Draw the lewis structure for bef2 in the box at the right, including lone pairs.
Kamila [148]

Answer :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

The given molecule is, BeF_2

Beryllium has '2' valence electrons and fluorine has '7' valence electrons. Beryllium is the central atom and fluorine is the terminal atom.

Total number valence electrons in BeF_2 = 2 + 2(7) = 16

According to the Lewis-dot structure, there are '4' number of bonding electrons and 12 number of non-bonding electrons (lone-pair).

The Lewis-dot structure is shown below.
