Solid aluminum metal and diatomic chlorine gas react spontaneously to form a solid product. Give the balanced chemical equation

(including phases) that describes this reaction.
Chemistry

ValentinkaMS [17]3 years ago
8 0

When solid aluminum metal is reacted with diatomic chlorine gas, solid aluminum chloride is formed. This reaction is an example of synthesis or chemical combination in which two elements, aluminum and chlorine combine to form a new compound aluminum chloride.

Word equation: Aluminum (s)+ Chlorine (g)---> Aluminum chloride(s)

Molecular formula of the product formed is AlCl_{3}.

Therefore the balanced chemical equation representing the reaction of solid aluminum with gaseous dichlorine can be represented as,

2Al(s) + 3Cl_{2}(g)-->2AlCl_{3}(s)

Which law represents a balanced chemical equation?​
Montano1993 [528]

Answer:

All chemical equations goes to the law of conservation of mass which says that matter can not be destroyed nor created which means there has to be an equal amount of atoms of each element on both sides of the equation. I hope that helps, I'm learning this as well.

What is the difference between Hydrolysis and Hydration?​
Grace [21]
Hydrolysis involves the reaction of water with another compound.Hydrolysis is the process in which the bond breaks due to addition of water whereas in hydration there is just addition of water, the molecule doesn’t break down.

identify each material as a compound or a mixture. Caffeine contains hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms in a fixed rat
vitfil [10]
Answer: caffeine is a compound.

Explanation:

1) As stated c<span>affeine contains hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms in a fixed ratio.

2) The definition of compound is a pure substance formed by chemical bonding of two or more fifferent elements. That means a defined ratio of the elements in the compound, which conferes uniform and equal properties to every part of the compound.

Some examples of compounds are salt (NaCl), water (H2O), vinegard (CH3 COOH).

A mixture combines several elements or compounds, not bonded by chemical bonds but mixed in ratios which may vary.

Which one of the following represents a decrease in entropy?
Leni [432]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

There are principally three states of matter. These are the solid, liquid and gaseous states. The gaseous state has the highest degree of disorderliness as gas particles can move randomly while the solid state has the highest level of compactness.

Hence, we need to be adequately fed with information as regards the phase change to know if entropy has decreased or increased.

A. is wrong

Evaporation is a change of state to the gaseous state meaning there is an increased entropy.

B. is wrong

Sublimation is a change of state which means a solid substance like iodine or naphthalene changes its state directly to the gaseous state. There is an increased entropy here too.

C is wrong

Melting of ice means going from ice block to liquid water. This is synonymous to going from the solid state to the liquid state which is an increased entropy

D is correct

Condensation involves going from the gaseous state to the liquid state. This means going from a less ordered state to a more ordered state. This is accompanied by an entropy decrease.

E is wrong

While there are some processes that increase entropy, we also have some process that decrease entropy.
