Hitman42 [59]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

seven electrons

Explanation:

Chlorine is present in group seventeen of periodic table. It is halogen element. All halogens have seven electrons in outer most valance shell.

The require only one electron to gain the stable electronic configuration or to complete the octet.

Electronic configuration of chlorine:

Cl₁₇ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵

Abbreviated electronic configuration:

Cl₁₇ = [Ne] 3s² 3p⁵

Properties of chlorine:

1. it is greenish-yellow irritating gas.

2. its melting point is 172.2 K

3. its boiling point is 238.6 K

4. it is disinfectant and can kill the bacteria.

5. it is also used in manufacturing of paper, paints and textile industries.

A graduated cylinder is filled to the 40.00-mL mark with a mineral oil. The masses of the cylinder before and after the addition
castortr0y [4]

Answer:

Firstly, Let's experiment this !

Experiment 1 :

159.446g - 124.966g = 34.48g

34.48g = The mass of Mineral oil.

The density of the mineral oil = M/V = 34.48g/40mL = 0.862g/cm³.

Experiment 2 :

124.966 + 18.173 = 143.139 = The mass of solid + cylinder.

124.966 + 50.952 = 175.918 = The mass of solid + cylinder + Mineral water.

175.918 - 143.139 = 32.779 = The mass of added mineral oil.

Explanation:

Now we have to find the volume of the added mineral oil using the density from experiment 1.

V = 32.779g/0.862g/cm³ = 38.02668213mL

Since we found the volume of the solid, we then have to subtract the added mineral oil volume from the total volume from experiment 1.

Volume of solid = 40-38.02668213 = 1.97331787mL

Density of solid = 18.713g/1.97331787mL = 9.483013499g/cm^3

1.97331787 = (4/3)(3.14)r³

1.97331787*(3/4)(3.14) = .4713338861

.4713338861 = r ³

r = 0.7782328425158433

r = 0.78

Now that's our final answer ! r = 0.78
