Answer:

0.68 V

Explanation:

For anode;

3Mg(s) ---->3Mg^2+(aq) + 6e

For cathode;

2Al^3+(aq) + 6e -----> 2Al(s)

Overall balanced reaction equation;

3Mg(s) + 2Al^3+(aq) ----> 3Mg^2+(aq) + 2Al(s)

Since

E°anode = -2.356 V

E°cathode = -1.676 V

E°cell=-1.676 -(-2.356)

E°cell= 0.68 V

If an element has 2+ valence electrons, does it transfer only one or more than one valence electrons​
just olya [345]

Answer:

element having 2+ valence electrons can transfer its more than one electron that is 2 electron completely.

Explanation:

  • Group IIA have 2+ valency and two electrons in its valance shell.
  • Its Electropositivity is  high and have the tendency to donate it two electrons.
  • Element  of IIA form ionic with most electronegative element.

Examples:

Cu²⁺, Mg²⁺, Sr²⁺ are examples having  2+ valance electron

one of the following is examples of element that have 2+ valence electrons

MgCl₂

Atomic number of Magnesium (Mg) is 12

Electronic Configuration of Mg:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s²

or

K =2

L = 8

M = 2

So, it have to give its 2 electrons to form a stable compound.

Similarly

Chlorine atomic number is 17

Electronic Configuration of Chlorine:

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁵

or

K =2

L = 8

M = 7

So, it have to gain one electrons to form a stable compound and complete its octet.

So,

Two chlorine atom as a molecule gain 2 electrons from Mg²⁺ atom

So one Mg²⁺ and 2 Cl⁻ atoms form an ionic bond

where in this ionic bond Mg²⁺ transfer its 2 valence electron completely and chlorine molecule accept 2 electrons.

                 Cl-----Mg------Cl

So the Answer is

element having 2+ valence electrons can transfer its more than one electron that is 2 electron completely.

The CRC Handbook, a large reference book of chemical and physical data, lists two isotopes of indium (). The atomic mass of 4.28
ivanzaharov [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of second isotope of indium is 114.904 amu

<u>Explanation:</u>

Average atomic mass of an element is defined as the sum of masses of each isotope each multiplied by their natural fractional abundance.

Formula used to calculate average atomic mass follows:

  .....(1)

Let the mass of isotope 2 of indium be 'x'

  • <u>For isotope 1:</u>

Mass of isotope 1 = 112.904 amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 1 = 4.28 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 1 = 0.0428

  • <u>For isotope 2:</u>

Mass of isotope 2 = x amu

Percentage abundance of isotope 2 = [100 - 4.28] = 95.72 %

Fractional abundance of isotope 2 = 0.9572

Average atomic mass of indium = 114.818 amu

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

114.818=[(112.904\times 0.0428)+(x\times 0.9572)]\\\\x=114.904amu

Hence, the mass of second isotope of indium is 114.904 amu

Why is the composition of Earth's atmosphere different from the composition of the atmospheres of Venus and Mars? A. Venus, Mars
rewona [7]

Answer:

they all have different chemical compositions from earth

Venus is more filled with carbon dioxide and nitrogen

earth is filled more with oxygen and nitrogen

mars is filled more with carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide

so ur answer is C

it cant be B as scientists and NASA are still in the look out for life, D has nothing to do with chemicals and atmosphere, and its not A cuz they all dont have the same similiar chemical.
