The more electronegative an atom is the more unwilling it is to lose its electrons in a compound. If you do try to take a very EN atom away from a compound you'll need to apply a lot of energy for that to happen. I can give an example of a single atom though
<span>Cl has 7 valence electron filled and every atom wants to be like nobles (noble gases), so it's not going to give an electron away b/c it's really close to being like a noble gas. Noble gases are the most stable atoms, which is why I say stability counts.</span>
In Chemistry, to better determine the position of a certain electron, quantum numbers are used. The four quantum numbers are n, l, m and s. In the given above of n= 4, the principal quantum number is 4 and this represents the overall relative energy in the orbital. This means that we are to find the maximum number of electrons in fourth main energy level and the answer is 32.
Mass fraction has been the mass of an individual element with respect to the compound. The mass fraction of chloride in calcium chlorate is 0.171.
<h3>What is meant by a mass fraction?</h3>
Mass fraction has been defined as the ratio of the masses of the individual elements present in a compound to the total mass of the molecule or compound.
The formula for a mass fraction (w) is given as,
Mass fraction (w) = mass ÷ total mass
Given,
Mass of chlorine = 35.453 grams per mole
The molar mass of calcium chlorate (Ca(ClO₃)₂) = 206.98 grams per mole
Substituting and solving the values above as
w = mass of chlorine ÷ total mass of calcium chlorate
w = 35.453 ÷ 206.98
w = 0.171
Therefore, the mass fraction of Cl in calcium chlorate is 0.171.
