Answer:
what happened when they removed the limescale?
Explanation:
Use the ideal gas law:
PV = nRT
so, T = PV / nR
n=0.5
V= 120 dm^3 = 120 L (1 dm^3 = 1 L)
R = 1/12
P = 15,000 Pa = 0.147 atm (1 pa = 9.86 10^{-6} )
Put the values:
T = PV / nR
T = (0.147) (120) / (0.5) (1/12)
T= 426 K
#1. An element or ion that has lost two electrons must have a net charge of 2+, because it has two more protons than electrons, therefore the answer is Mg2+
#2. aluminum ions have an oxidation state of 3+ and fluoride has an oxidation state of 1-, therefore I’m order for the charges to cancel you need 3 fluoride ions.
Therefore, the answer is AlF3
