Which species Al or Cu will have the greater attraction for the chlorine atom?

1 answer:

3 0

Aluminium is an element in group three in the periodic table in period three while copper is a transition element. Aluminium is higher in the reactivity series than copper and therefore it is more reactive than copper. Aluminium has a valence of three and therefore will react with copper forming a strong ionic bond compared to copper which has a valency of 1 or two. Therefore aluminium has greater attraction for chlorine atom

In order to get HgO you would need 2Hg+1O2=2HgO. Since oxygen is diatomic you need two when it stands alone causing you to need two mercuries to balance out the reactants and the product I hope this helps

Answer:

B) 0.230 M

Explanation:

The first step is to balance the reaction between the Ferrous ion and the permanganate ion:

$5~Fe^+^2~+~MnO_4^-^1~+~8H^+~->~5Fe^+^3~+~Mn^+^2~+4H_2O$
