State the number of electrons that must be lost by atoms of

Chemistry

<u>The number of electrons that must be lost by atoms of each given to achieve a stable electron configuration are as follows: </u>

  • Li has to lose 1 electron
  • Ca has to lose 2 electrons
  • Ga has to lose 13 electrons
  • Cs has to lose 1 electron
  • Ba has to lose 2 electrons.

<u>Explanation: </u>

It is known that the elements in the last group or we can stay the noble gases have the most stable electron configuration. So if any other element has to attain stable electron configuration, either they have to loose electrons to attain the electronic configuration similar to its closest noble gas element or they have to attain extra electron to reach the electronic configuration of its nearest noble gas element.

In this case, the question is stated to determine the number of electrons lost by the atoms to reach its stable electron configuration. Thus, the outermost shell electrons or the valence state electrons can be lost by the element to attain the electronic configuration of its nearest noble gas element.

So, the elements given in the question need to lose the electrons such that the electronic configuration of the element after losing of electrons will be equal to the electronic configuration of noble elements. This attainment of noble gas configuration by the elements will be achieving the stable electron configuration.

If the initial volume is 55ml and the final volume after some rocks of sandstone are added is 65ml what is the volume of the chi
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Volume = 10ml

Density = 1/5 g/ml or 0.20g/ml

Explanation:

The rocks are 10ml since the initial volume went up by 10.

Since density = mass/volume, you divide 2 by 10.

D = 2/10

D = 1/5 g/ml or 0.20g/ml

(Unit is g/ml aka grams/millileter)

What geometry does VSEPR predict for the central atom in NCl3
Archy [21]

Answer:

Tetrahedral electron geometry and trigonal pyramidal molecular geometry.

Explanation:

The Lewis structure is shown in Figure 1.

The central N atom has three bonding pairs and one lone pair, for <em>four electron groups</em>.

VSEPR theory predicts a tetrahedral electron geometry with bond angles of 109.5°.

We do not count the lone pair in determining the molecular shape.

The molecular geometry is trigonal pyramidal (see Figure 2).

Write the balanced net reaction for the following half cells: <br> Sn2+ / Sn<br> Cr2+ / Cr
GuDViN [60]

The balanced net reactiion for the following half cells will be

Sn + Cr²⁺   --->  Sn²⁺  +  Cr

<h3>What are Half cells ?</h3>

A half cell is one of the two electrodes of an electrochemical cell.

An electrochemical cell comprises two half cells, where every half cell contains an electrode and an electrolyte.

A salt bridge or direct contact is needed to connect two half cells.

The balanced net reactiion for the given half cells will be

Sn + Cr²⁺   --->  Sn²⁺  +  Cr

What volume of so2 is produced at 325 k and 1.35 atm when 15.0 grams of hcl reacts with excess k2so3?
vova2212 [387]
The volume of SO2 produced at 325k   is calculated as  below

calculate  the moles of SO2 produced  which  is calculated as follows

write the  reacting equation
K2SO3 +2 HCl = 2KCl +H2O+ SO2

find the   moles  of  HCl  used
=mass/molar mass = 15g/ 36.5 g/mol =0.411 moles

by  use of mole ratio between  HCl to  SO2  which is  2:1 the moles of SO2 is therefore = 0.411 /2 =0.206  moles  of SO2

use the idea  gas  equation  to calculate the volume SO2
that is V=nRT/P  
where  n=0.206  moles
          R(gas constant) = 0.082 L.atm/ mol.k
         T=325 K
          P=1.35 atm

V=(0.206 moles x  0.082 L.atm/mol.k x325 k)/1.35 atm = 4.07 L of SO2
