Since the Chlorine gained an electron, it became a chlorine ion with +1 charge. Therefore, it is Cl⁺¹.

Answer:

The charge would be -1.

Explanation:

The atomic number refers to the number of protons an atom has. Chlorine is electrically neutral, so it has the same  number of positive charges (protons) than negative charges (electrons). Therefore, chlorine has 17 protons and 17 electrons. When it gains 1 electron, it will have an excess of one negative charge, so the charge of the ion will be -1, forming Cl⁻.

Answer:

You should rinse your head thoroughly ASAP, don't try to blow on the chemical or anything. Its going burn, you have to let your head cool off.

Explanation:

why rinse off your hand? you're getting the fluid away fast, so I can't infect your skin that much.

1. A student collected the following data for a fixed volume of gas: Temperature (⁰C) Pressure (mm of Hg) 10 726 20 750 40 800 7
zimovet [89]

Answer is: the missing pressure is 1088.66 mmHg.

Gay-Lussac's Law states that the pressure of a given amount of gas held at constant volume is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature.

p₁/T₁ = p₂/T₂.

p₁ = 960 mmHg; pressure of the gas.

T₁ = 100°C + 273.15.

T₁ = 373.15 K; temperature of the gas.

T₂ = 150°C + 273.15.

T₂ = 423.15 K.

p₂ = p₁T₂/T₁.

p₂ = 960 mmHg · 423.15 K / 373.15 K.

p₂ = 1088.66 mmHg.

23.5 L of h2 is stored at a pressure of 58.7 Kpa what volume would the gas take up at stp
stepan [7]

Answer:-  13.6 L

Solution:- Volume of hydrogen gas at 58.7 Kpa is given as 23.5 L. It asks to calculate the volume of hydrogen gas at STP that is standard temperature and pressure. Since the problem does not talk about the original temperature so we would assume the constant temperature. So, it is Boyle's law.

Standard pressure is 1 atm that is 101.325 Kpa.

Boyle's law equation is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

From given information:-

P_1 = 58.7 Kpa

V_1 = 23.5 L

P_2 = 101.325 Kpa

V_2 = ?

Let's plug in the values and solve it for final volume.

58.7Kpa*23.5L=101.325Kpa*V_2

On rearranging the equation for V_2

V_2=\frac{58.7Kpa*23.5L}{101.325Kpa}

V_2 = 13.6 L

So, the volume of hydrogen gas at STP for the given information is 13.6 L.
