Answer:
There must be two Chlorine atoms for every one Calcium atom in order to fulfill Chlorine's octet rule and pair Calcium's unpaired electrons.
Explanation:
Calcium has two unpaired electrons in its Lewis dot structure, while Chlorine has one unpaired electron.
<em>So why can't we just make a double bond for </em><em>one</em><em> Chlorine?</em>
Chlorine has seven valence electrons, so once it shares electrons with Calcium, the octet rule is accomplished, and no more pairs can be made.
Answer:
116.88g of table salt (NaCl) contains two formula units
Explanation:
Now,
We know that 1 formula unit of sodium chloride has a molar mass of 58.44g/mol
Hence;
Mass of 1 formula unit = 58.44g
Mass of x formula units = 116.88g
x = 116.88g * 1 formula unit/58.44g
x = 2 formula units
Therefore;
116.88g of table salt (NaCl) contains two formula units
So, the answer to 27.) would be <em>2x.</em> Both 6x and 2x can be divided by 2x, but they can't go any higher without the end-answer becoming a fraction. As such, 2x is the greatest common factor.
For 28.), x and x^2 can't be like terms, since like terms have the same variable and exponent :)
Hope I could help!
PH + pOH = 14 ⇒ pOH = 14 - pH
pOH = 14 - 2.5
pOH = 11.5
[H⁺] = 10^(-pH) = 10^(-2.5)
[H⁺] = 0.003 M
[OH⁻] = 10^(-pOH) = 10^(-11.5) = 3 × 10⁻¹² M
[OH⁻] = 3 × 10⁻¹² M
pH = 2.5 implies one significant digit
Answer:
( °F − 32) × 5/9 = °C
Explanation:
Also there is a mental calculation to convert from Fahrenheit to Celsius. The ratio 5/9 is approximately equal 0.55555….
Subtract 32º to adapt the equivalent in the Fahrenheit scale.
Divide the degrees Celsius by 2 (multiply by 0.5).
Take 1/10 of this number (0.5 * 1/10 = 0.05) and add it to the number obtained previously.
Example: Convert 98.6º F to Centigrade.
98.6 - 32 = 66.6
66.6 * 1/2 = 33.3
33.3 * 1/10 = 3.3
33.3 + 3.3 = 36.6 which is an approximation in degrees Centigrade
