Answer:
a salt
Explanation:
compounds are made of molecules but we need to mention the type of compound formed.
Answer:
B: +3
Explanation:
If Gallium loses 3 electrons, it will become an ion.
The ion will be positively charged because in this new ion, the number of electrons is lesser than the number of protons. The charge difference will impart a positive net charge on the ion.
- In a neutral atom, the number of electrons and protons are the same.
- For positively charged ions, the number of protons is greater than the electrons
If Gallium the loss of 3 electrons offsets the charge balance in the chemical specie. Thus, the ion will have a net +3 charge.
Answer:
The grams of sodium chloride that will be made is 292.5 g. calculation. 2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl. step 1: calculate the moles of Na. moles = mass/molar mass. From periodic table the molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol. moles = 115 g/23 g / mol = 5 moles. Step 2 : use the mole ratio to determine the moles of NaCl. Na:NaCl is 2:2 = 1:1 therefore the moles of NaCl is also = 5 moles.
Explanation:
We know sodium is a very active metal and chlorine is also a very reactive non-metal. Usually, metals like to eliminate electrons and non-metals such as halogens like to accept electrons. Sodium readily eliminate its last shell electrons become Na+ cation and chlorine accepts that electron to form Cl-anion.
