How many atoms of chlorine are in the carbon tetrachloride molecule?
zaharov [31]

Answer:

4 atoms of Chlorine

Explanation:

This is actually easy to explain,

First we have here a type of nomenclature. This one is the sistematic nomenclature, and begins by naming the number of atoms that one element has, beggining for the non metal first, and then the metal or the non metal acting like a metal. In this case, the Carbon is acting like a metal.

The number of atoms are named by a prefix of the number. Each number has a determined prefix. Here are some of them:

one = 1 = mono

two = 2 = bi or di

three = 3 = tri

Four = 4 = tetra

Five = 5 = penta

Six = 6 = Hexa

So tetrachloride, means that we have 4 atoms of chlorine in the molecule and the molecule is this one: CCl4

Is anyone good at chemistry if so can someone help me please ?<br><br> (NO LINKS)
Mkey [24]

This requires familiarity with the different theories (or concepts) of acids and bases.

On the Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance that produces an H⁺ ion in water such that the H⁺ concentration increases, and a base is a substance that produces an OH⁻ ion in water such that the OH⁻ concentration increases.

On the Brønsted–Lowry concept, an acid is a substance that donates a proton (which is basically an H⁺ ion) in a solvent, and a base is a substance that accepts a proton in a solvent.

On the Lewis concept, an acid is a substance that accepts an electron pair in a solvent, and a base is a substance that donates an electron pair in a solvent.

The concepts become progressively broader, i.e., the Arrhenius concept is the most restrictive and the Lewis concept is the least restrictive. As a corollary, an Arrhenius acid or base is also both a Brønsted–Lowry acid or base and a Lewis acid or base, respectively; a Brønsted–Lowry acid or base is not necessarily an Arrhenius acid or base, but an Arrhenius acid or base is also a Lewis acid or base, respectively. And finally, a Lewis acid or base may not necessarily be either an Arrhenius or a Brønsted–Lowry acid or base.

So, with the above concepts in mind, we can match the statements in column A with the type of acid or base in column B:

\begin{center}\begin{tabular}{ c c } 1 & Bronsted Lowry acid \\  2 & Bronsted Lowry base \\   3 & Arrhenius acid \\ 4 & Arrhenius base \\ 5 & Lewis base \\ 6 & Lewis acid\end{tabular}\end{center}
