Answer:
b. Conducts electricity when dissolved in water
Explanation:
Iron(II) chloride, is the chemical compound with formula FeCl2.
It is a solid with a high melting point of about 677 degree Celsius or 950 K when in anhydrous form but have lower melting point in hydrated form.
The compound is often off-white. FeCl2 crystallizes from water as the greenish tetrahydrate, which is the form that is most commonly encountered in the laboratory.
There is also a dihydrate. The compound is highly soluble in water, giving pale green solutions.
The correct response would be 3. The alkaline earth metals would tend to lose its valence electrons, in this case 2 of them at different energy levels, to form the same respective ion, which is +2.
A is obviously out because it leads to a volume of 125.0 milliliters of the new solution and gives you a lower concentration than you were aiming for.
D is out because you are adding 75 milliliters of the stock solution, so your concentration would be too high. You only need 25.0 milometers of stock solution per 100 milliliters of the new solution.
C is also out because it leads to 50.0 milliliters stock solution per 100 milliliters of the new solution and hence the wrong concentration.
B is by default the correct answer. It also details the correct technique. First you add the stock solution (This you know from your calculations to be 25 milliliters.) then you add the water up to the volume you needed. (Because the calculations only tell you the total volume of water not what you need to add) You also add the water last so you can rinse the neck of the flask to make sure you also get all the stock solution residue into the stock solution.
I would add the final step of stirring, but B is the only answer that can be correct.
Answer:
Option-B (Carbon and Silicon)
Explanation:
Among the given pairs only carbon and silicon have the most similar properties. This is because,
Sodium and Magnesium belong to different groups. Sodium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Magnesium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.
Example:
2 Na + Cl₂ → NaCl
Mg + Cl₂ → MgCl₂
As shown in reactions when Sodium and Magnesium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.
Carbon and Silicon show almost same properties because both belong to Group IV hence both are capable of forming four bonds. Also, they share the same property of self linkage in making a long chains.
Argon and Chlorine also belong to two different groups. Argon is present in Group VIII (Noble Gases) and Chlorine is present in Group VII (Halogens). Hence, Argon is an inert specie which is non reactive while Chlorine gives different reaction easily.
Potassium and Calcium belong to different groups. Potassium present in Group I has one electron in its valence shell and capable of transferring only one electron while, Calcium present in Group II have two electrons in its valence shell and is capable of donating two electrons. Hence, both show different properties.
Example:
2 K + Cl₂ → KCl
Ca + Cl₂ → CaCl₂
As shown in reactions when Potassium and Calcium are treated with Cl₂ they give a products with different proportions.
