Answer:
Option C. Gain 1 electron
Explanation:
Valence electron(s) are the electron(s) located on the outermost shell of an atom. Valency is simply defined as the combining power of an atom.
Chlorine (Cl) atom has 7 valence electron. This implies that Cl needs just one electron to complete it's octet configuration. It will be difficult for Cl to lose any of it's valence electron(s). Cl can either gain or share 1 electron to become stable.
Thus, considering the options given in the question above, option C gives the correct answer to the question.
Answer:
Oxidation - reduction reaction which is called redox reaction.
Explanation:
The type of reaction that is a part of another type but treated separately is called Oxidation - reduction reaction.
Thus is because they usually involve 2 separate half reactions which are oxidation reactions that involve loss of electrons and then reduction equations which involve gain of electrons.
They are treated separately for example when sodium reacts with chlorine to form sodium chloride.
2Na + Cl2 = 2NaCl
Now, sodium undergoes oxidation by loosing elctrons and it's half reaction is;
2Na → 2Na^(+) + 2e^(-)
Meanwhile chlorine undergoes reduction by gaining electrons and its half reaction is;
Cl2 + 2e^(-) → 2Cl^(-)
Explanation:
The mass of a pot is 300g and contains 90% aluminum. Find the number of moles of aluminum in the pot. P.A. (Al = 27)
The mass of aluminum present in the pot is:
Hence, in the given pot 270g Al is present.
The gram atomic mass of Al -27 g/mol
Given the mass of Al is 270 g
Substitute these values in the above formula:
Answer is 10.0 mol of Al is present.
Answer:
Non Polar
Explanation:
Non Polar molecule because of its linear symmetric shape
