There are few elements that can form 12 electron rather than the usual 8. Therefore these are the possible answers:

Sulfur = 2Na + S --> Na2S <span>
Selenium = 2Na + Se --> Na2Se 
<span>Tellurium = 2Na + Te --> Na2Te</span></span>

Determine the freezing point of an aqueous solution containing 10.50 g of magnesium bromide in 200.0 g of water.
Rudiy27
For an aqueous solution of MgBr2, a freezing point depression occurs due to the rules of colligative properties. Since MgBr2 is an ionic compound, it acts a strong electrolyte; thus, dissociating completely in an aqueous solution. For the equation:

                                ΔTf<span> = (K</span>f)(<span>m)(i)
</span>where: 
ΔTf = change in freezing point = (Ti - Tf)
Ti = freezing point of pure water = 0 celsius
Tf = freezing point of water with solute = ?
Kf = freezing point depression constant = 1.86 celsius-kg/mole (for water)
m = molality of solution (mol solute/kg solvent) = ?
i = ions in solution = 3

Computing for molality:
Molar mass of MgBr2 = 184.113 g/mol

m = 10.5g MgBr2 / 184.113/ 0.2 kg water = 0.285 mol/kg


For the problem, 
ΔTf = (Kf)(m)(i) = 1.86(0.285)(3) = 1.59 = Ti - Tf = 0 - Tf

Tf = -1.59 celsius

A fog over a lake. what two changes of state must occur to produce the fog? do the water molecules absorb or release energy duri
Zolol [24]
The water from the lake must first evaporate from the liquid state to the gaseous state and then condense in the air to form vapors.
The water molecules absorb energy while evaporating and release it when condensing. Their motion gets faster when they are evaporating and slows back down upon condensation.

What is the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in a container that contains 3.63 mol of oxygen, 1.49 mol of nitrogen, and 4.49 m
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Partial pressure of CO₂ is 406.9 mmHg

Explanation:

To solve the question we should apply the concept of the mole fraction.

Mole fraction = Moles of gas / Total moles

We have the total moles of the mixture, if we have the moles for each gas inside. (3.63 moles of O₂, 1.49 moles of N₂ and 4.49 moles of CO₂)

Total moles = 3.63 mol O₂ + 1.49 mol N₂ + 4.49 mol CO₂ = 9.61 moles

To determiine the partial pressure of CO₂ we apply

Mole fraction of CO₂ → mol of CO₂ / Total moles = P. pressure CO₂ / Total P

Partial pressure of CO₂ = (mol of CO₂ / Total moles) . Total pressure

We replace values: (4.49 moles / 9.61 moles) . 871 mmHg = 406.9 mmHg
