Answer:
matter
Explanation:
any thing that has mass and volume is matter. basically everything expect light and energy.
Answer:
1.25mole of Mg(OH)₂
Explanation:
The reaction is between Mg(OH)₂ and HCl, this is a neutralization reaction between an acid and a base.
Mg(OH)₂ + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + 2H₂O
The balanced reaction equation is given above.
2 mole of HCl reacts with 1 mole of Mg(OH)₂
So, 2.5mole of HCl will react with 
= 1.25mole of Mg(OH)₂
The number of moles of Mg(OH)₂ is given as 1.25mol
Answer:
.
Explanation:
Lithium is in the first column of the periodic table, so it will have 1 valence electron.
Bromine is in the seventh column of the periodic table, so it will have seven valence electrons.
They must combine in a way to reach 8.
When combining elements to form compounds, the "crisscross method" is used. Above Li would be a charge of +1, and above Br would be a charge of -1.
Cross the 1 from the top of Li to the bottom of Br, and so there is 1 Br.
Cross the 1 from the top of Br to the bottom of Li, and so there is 1 Li.
It is not written BrLi because chemists decided to order them the other way. Technically speaking, it isn't wrong, but the positive charge is normally put on the left and the negative charge is normally put on the right.
Two types of chemical bonds common in compounds are covalent bonds and ionic bonds. The elements in any compound are always present in fixed ratios. Example 1: Pure water is a compound made from two elements - hydrogen<span> and </span>oxygen<span>.</span>
Answer:
B) All carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.
Explanation:
The false statement from the given choices is that all carbon atoms have 6 neutrons.
There is a phenomenon called isotopy in chemistry.
Isotopy is the existence of two or more atoms of the same element having the same atomic number but different mass numbers due to the differences in the number of neutrons in their various nuclei.
- These atoms of elements are called isotopes.
- Carbon atoms generally have proton number of 6 which is the same as the atomic number.
- As with all atoms, the mass number or atomic mass equals the number of protons and neutrons.
For the isotopes of carbon, their number of neutrons differs.
For example:
<em>¹²₆C ¹³₆C ¹⁴₆C</em>
The number of neutrons differs in the above isotopes.
Number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number;
¹²₆C , number of neutrons = 12 - 6 = 6
¹³₆C, number of neutrons = 13 - 6 = 7
¹⁴₆C, number of neutrons = 14 - 6 = 8
Therefore, based on the concept of isotopy, all carbon atoms do not have 6 neutrons.
