Answer: It is an exothermic process because heat energy is absorbed by the water as the NaOH(s) dissolves in it.
Explanation:
Endothermic reaction : It is a type of chemical reaction where the energy is absorbed from the surrounding. In the endothermic reaction, the reactant are less than the energy of product. In endothermic reaction, the change in enthalpy is, positive
Exothermic reaction : It is a type of chemical reaction where the energy is released into the surrounding. In the exothermic reaction, the energy of reactant are more than the energy of product. In exothermic reaction, the change in enthalpy is, negative.
Thus as energy is absorbed by water, which has been released by NaOH, the process is exothermic.
Answer:
The magnesium atom loses 2 electron to the 2 atoms of chlorine. The 7 valency electrons of each chlorine atom will now be 8 to attain stable configuration. The final compound is written as MgCl2.
Explanation:
Ionic compounds are compound formed from the transfer of electron(s). One atom of the element loses electron(s) while the other atom gains electron(s).
The compound Magnesium chloride is an ionic compound . The bond between an atom of magnesium and 2 atoms of chlorine is an ionic bonding.
The valency electron of magnesium is 2 electron , for the atom of magnesium to attain octet rule, it will easily lose it 2 electrons to the chlorine atoms.
The chlorine atom on the other hand has 7 valency electrons, to attain octet configuration it will most likely gain 1 electron to become stable.
The magnesium atom loses 2 electron to the 2 atoms of chlorine. The 7 valency electrons of each chlorine atom will now be 8 to attain stable configuration. The final compound is written as MgCl2.
The atomic number of Fluorine is 9
Valence (outer) electron configuration is : 2s²2p⁵
Therefore, it requires 1 electron in the p-orbital to complete its octet of 8 electrons.
Thus, the atom Fluorine generally will become <u>more </u>stable through the formation of an ionic chemical compound by accepting <u>1 </u> electron from another atom. This process will fill its outer energy level.
Ans: A) more, 1
This is true otherwise cancer patients would have a hole in them and so would the hulk ;)
Answer: A) This reaction will be spontaneous only at high temperatures
Explanation:
= +ve, reaction is non spontaneous
= -ve, reaction is spontaneous
= 0, reaction is in equilibrium
Using Gibbs Helmholtz equation:
Given : 
Thus the value of is negative and spontaneous when temperature is high.
