Molar mass of sodium chloride is 22.99 g/mol (Na+) + 35.45 g/mol (Cl-) = x g/mol. Then take the mass of sodium chloride sample 5 grams and divide by molar mass to get the number of moles. Take this number and multiply it by Avogadro’s number (6.22*10^23 molecules/mol). You now have the amount of molecules in 5 grams of NaCl.
Answer:
the NaCl is not considered a molecula
Explanation:
Sodium atoms, (Na +) and chlorine atoms, (Cl-) form a three-dimensional network. The cations and the anions are joined together by electrostatic attraction which we call ionic bonding
Molecules are atoms bound with chemical bond.
Answer: 0.185 L
Explanation:
Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.
The combined gas equation is,
where,
= initial pressure of gas = 0.98 atm
= final pressure of gas = 1 atm (at STP)
= initial volume of gas = 0.165 L
= final volume of gas = ?
= initial temperature of gas = 
= final temperature of gas = 
(at STP)
Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:
Thus the volume of this gas at STP be 0.185 L
Answer:
Ionic bond, also called electrovalent bond, type of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound. ... The atom that loses the electrons becomes a positively charged ion (cation), while the one that gains them becomes a negatively charged ion (anion).
Explanation:Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion. Ionic bonds require an electron donor, often a metal, and an electron acceptor, a nonmetal.
Ionic bonding is observed because metals have few electrons in their outer-most orbitals. By losing those electrons, these metals can achieve noble gas configuration and satisfy the octet rule. Similarly, nonmetals that have close to 8 electrons in their valence shells tend to readily accept electrons to achieve noble gas configuration. In ionic bonding, more than 1 electron can be donated or received to satisfy the octet rule. The charges on the anion and cation correspond to the number of electrons donated or received. In ionic bonds, the net charge of the compound must be zero.
This sodium molecule donates the lone electron in its valence orbital in order to achieve octet configuration. This creates a positively charged cation due to the loss of electron.
This chlorine atom receives one electron to achieve its octet configuration, which creates a negatively charged anion.
The predicted overall energy of the ionic bonding process, which includes the ionization energy of the metal and electron affinity of the nonmetal, is usually positive, indicating that the reaction is endothermic and unfavorable. However, this reaction is highly favorable because of the electrostatic attraction between the particles. At the ideal interatomic distance, attraction between these particles releases enough energy to facilitate the reaction. Most ionic compounds tend to dissociate in polar solvents because they are often polar. This phenomenon is due to the opposite charges on each ion.
