Answer:

FeCl_{3}

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

mass of Fe = 55.85 g

Molar mass of Fe = 55.85 g/mol

<u>Moles of Fe = 55.85 / 55.85 = 1</u>

mass of Cl = 106.5 g

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol

Moles of Cl = 106.5 / 35.5 = 3

Taking the simplest ratio for Fe and Cl as:

1 : 3

The empirical formula is = FeCl_{3}

Answer:

The difference between the two is:

[Kr]4d^1^05s^25p^2 is the Orbital Occupancy

[Kr]5s^24d^1^05p^2 is the Orbital Filling Order

Both are correct, I don't think your teacher will be so nit-picky to care.

In the reversible reaction: 2NO2 (g) ⇌ N2O4 (g) the formation of dinitrogen tetroxide releases heat and the formation of nitroge
xenn [34]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to Le Chatelier's principle, any disturbance causes in an equilibrium reaction will shift the equilibrium in a direction that will oppose the change.

For example, 2NO_{2}(g) \rightleftharpoons N_{2}O_{4}(g)

When we increase the temperature then the reaction will shift in a direction where there will be decrease in temperature.

This, means that the reaction will shift in the backward direction.

Thus, we can conclude that if the reaction is at equilibrium and the temperature increases, the equilibrium will shift so that there is more nitrogen dioxide.

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between reactant and yield? The actual yield is calculated from the amount
melamori03 [73]
The statement which correctly describe the relationship between the reactants and the yield is this: 'the theoretical yield is calculated from the amount of the limiting reactants present'. The theoretical yields is the ideal maximum amount of a product that can be produced during a chemical reaction while the limiting reactant is the reactant that determines the maximum amount of product that can be formed.
