. What happens when aluminum fills it's valence shell?

What role does the sun play in the formation of rain

valkas [14]

Not my best subject, but I believe that the heat of the sun evaporates the water from other rain storms that had happened before. Once the water evaporates it gets formed into clouds (rain clouds) and after a while it get heavy or a bit cold so the cloud releases the water it held and the water being dropped is rain. I'm sorry if this is wrong this is all I can remember, but I believe it should be enough for elementary school.

Which atom absorbs more energy, one in which an electron moves from the second shell to the third shell or an otherwise identica

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

identical atom in which an electron moves from the first to the third shell.

Atoms may occupy different energy states. The energy states are discrete, i.e. they occur at specific values only. Therefore an atom can only move to a new energy level if it absorbs or emits an amount of energy that exactly corresponds to the difference between two energy levels.

The lowest possible energy level that the atom can occupy is called the ground state. This is the energy state that would be considered normal for the atom.

An excited state is an energy level of an atom, ion, or molecule in which an electron is at a higher energy level than its ground state.

An electron is normally in its ground state, the lowest energy state available. After absorbing energy, it may jump from the ground state to a higher energy level, called an excited state.

How would decreasing the volume of the reaction vessel affect each of the following equilibria? 2NOBr(g) --> 2NO(g)+Br2(g)

Alex_Xolod [135]

As per Le Chatelier principle, when a system in equilibrium is disturbed, the reaction will try to compensate the change to restore the equilibrium.

This reaction occurs in gas phase, so the volume is inversely proportional to the pressure.

Then a decrease in volume will cause an increase in pressure, so the system will tend to react in the direction that compensates this increase, this is the system will try to reduce the number of moles of particles to reduce the increase of the pressure.

As you see, there are 3 particles of products (2 of NO and 1 of Br) for every 2 particles of reactant (NOBr).

That means, that the equilibrium will displace to the left, this is the concentration of NOBr will increase while the concentration of NO and Br will decrease.

Write the ionic charges (such as Ca2+) and chemical formulas and fill-in the table below.

Vikentia [17]

1) Lithium and fluorine:

Ionic charges: lithium cation Li⁺ and fluorine anion F⁻.

Chemical formula LiF.

In ionic salt lithium fluoride (LiF), fluorine has electronegativity approximately χ = 4 and lithium χ = 1 (Δχ = 4 - 1; Δχ = 3).

Fluorine attracts electron and it has negative charge and lithium has positive charge.

2) Beryllium and oxygen:

Ionic charges cation Be²⁺ and anion O²⁻.

Chemical formula is BeO.

Beryllium is metal from group 2 and oxygen is nonmetal from group 16.

Electron configuration of beryllium: ₄Be: 1s² 2s², it has two valence electrons in 2s orbital.

Beryllium lose two electrons and to gain electron configuration as noble gas helium (He).

Electron configuration of oxygen atom: ₈O 1s² 2s² 2p⁴.

Oxygen gain two valence electron to form anion with stable electron configuration as noble gas neon (atomic number 10).

3) Magnesium and fluorine:

Ionic charges cation Mg²⁺ and anion F⁻.

Chemical formula is MgF₂.

Magnesium fluoride (MgF₂) is salt, ionic compound.

Magnesium (Mg) is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements and has low ionisation energy and electronegativity, which means it easily lose valence electons (two valence electrons).

Magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons. It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.

Fluorine (F) is nonmetal with greatest electronegativity, which means it easily gain electrons.

Fluorine has atomic number 9, which means it has 9 protons and 9 electrons. It gain one electron to form fluorine anion (F⁻) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.

4) Aluminum and chlorine:

Ionic charges cation Al³⁺ and anion Cl⁻.

Chemical formula is AlCl₃.

The right name for AlCl₃ is aluminium chloride.

Aluminium chloride is a salt with ionic bonds.

Aluminium (metal from group 13) has oxidation number +3 and chlorine (nonmetal from group 17) has oxidation number -1, chemical compound has neutral charge (+3 + 3 · (-1) = 0).

5) Beryllium and nitrogen:

Ionic charges cation Be²⁺ and anion N³⁻.

Chemical formula is Be₃N₂.

Atomic number of nitrogen is 7, it has 7 protons and 7 electrons.

Electron configuration of nitrogen atom: ₇N 1s² 2s² 2p³.

Nitrogen gain three electrons to form anion with stable electron configuration as noble gas neon (atomic number 10).

Iron(II) is available to bond with chloride ion. How many of each type of ion will bond to form an ionic compound?

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

D) 1 iron(II), 2 chloride

Explanation:

Iron II chloride is the compound; FeCl2. It is formed as follows, ionically;

Fe^2+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) -----> FeCl2

The formation of one mole of FeCl2 involves the reaction one mole of iron and two moles of chloride ions. This means that in FeCl2, the ratio of iron to chlorine is 1:2 as seen above.

Therefore there is one iron II ion and two chloride ions in each mole of iron II chloride, hence the answer.
