Explain why CaCl2 is likely to have properties similar to those of CaBr2

Chemistry
1 answer:
qaws [65]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Because both CaCl2 and CaBr2 both contain elements (Chlorine and Bromine) from the same group (group 7)

Explanation:

Elements are placed into different groups in the periodic table. Elements in the same group are those that have the same number of valence electrons in their outermost shell and as a result will behave similar chemically i.e. will react with other elements in the same manner.

Chlorine and Bromine are two elements belonging to group 7 of the periodic table. They are called HALOGENS and they have seven valence electrons in their outermost shell. Hence, when they form a compound with Calcium, a group two element, these compounds (CaCl2 and CaBr2) will possess similar properties because they have elements that are from the same group (halogen group).

laiz [17]

Answer:

80cm3 of water, and 60cm3 carbon IV oxide is formed while 20cm3 of oxygen is left unreacted.

Explanation:

From Gay-Lussac's law, there are five volumes of oxygen, 1 volume if propane, 4 volumes of water and three volumes of CO2. Applying this shows the reacting volumes as we have in the image attached, hence the volumes left after reaction.

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 8.29 %</h3>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

P(\%) =  \frac{error}{actual \:  \: number}  \times 100\% \\

From the question

actual density = 19.30g/L

error = 20.9 - 19.3 = 1.6

We have

p(\%) =  \frac{1.6}{19.3}  \times 100 \\  = 8.290155440...

We have the final answer as

<h3>8.29 %</h3>

Hope this helps you

Which substance is used to remove rust from metal
wel
<span>Chemically speaking, rust is a base and any acid will remove it. The choice of acid is going to be the thing to consider, since acid + base = salt and water. Phosphoric acid left a residue because the salt Iron phosphate is insoluble in water. Iron's soluble salts include the chloride, the sulfate and the nitrate. Industrially speaking, you need to "pickle" your iron. Pickling is a process in which dilute sulfuric acid is used to remove any surface corrosion prior to either painting or plating an iron surface. Sulfuric acid is ordinary battery acid and the salt Iron sulfate is not toxic. Sulfuric acid is one of the most common acids used (besides hydrochloric acid). The dilute kind is not terribly corrosive but concentrated sulfuric acid is a thick, syrupy liquid which can cause some nasty chemical burns if allowed to remain on the skin. It also heats up quite a lot when water is added, so this is an "Acid to water not water to acid" situation. The other choice is Hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid. The 20% concentrate is available in nearly any hardware store. It isn't as corrosive as concentrated sulfuric acid, but it has a burning, acrid stench, so never use the concentrate without adequate ventilation. It is ordinarily used to remove hard water deposits (boiler scale) but does a good on on rust as well. Concentrated Iron chloride isn't entirely inert but lots of rinsing will turn it back into harmless rust/sludge, especially if the rince water is naturally hard. Nitric acid will remove corrosion from anything, but it is extremely corrosive, smells worse then Hydrochloric acid and isn't easy to get, since it can be used to create some powerful explosives</span>
