It would be Magnesium = 1 atom, Oxygen = 2 atoms, Hydrogen = 2 atoms. It has 5 atoms total. There is 1 magnesium and you multiply each element by the the 2 outside the parenthesis to get 2 oxygen and 2 hydrogen.
Gain 1.
This is because of Chlorine's placement on the periodic table. Chlorine is a Halogen, thus being located in group 17 or 7A. This means it is one of the closest elements to being a Noble Gas or group 18/8A.
Chlorine has 7 valence electrons, and in order for it to become a Noble Gas, it needs 8. Cl- is typically the symbol used to represent this as Chlorine needs to gain an electrons instead of lose; once Chlorine gains the electron, it will be stable.
This also means that Chlorine has a high ionization energy or, in simpler terms, it would be difficult to remove an electron from Chlorine.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
2.15 L
Explanation:
M(NaOCl) = 23.0 + 16.0 + 35.5 = 74.5 g/mol
120.3 g *1 mol/74.5 g = 1.615 mol NaOCl
0.750 M = 0.750 mol/L
1.615 mol * 1L/0.750 mol = 2.15 L
