Describe the charges of the particles in the atom and how charge is distributed within an atom.

trapecia [35]

There are MANY subatomic particles in an atom.
But the three most important ones are
The electron which has a negative charge.
The proton having a positive charge.
And the neutron which is neutral or which has no charge at all.
The protons and neutrons club together and form the inner, heavy part of the atom which is positively charges because of the protons known as the nucleus.
And electrons remain farther away in all reality and revolve around the inner positive nucleus.
Trying its best to make the whole atom neutral!

Which pair of elements is most likely to chemically combine and form ionic bonds, chlorine and chlorine or lithium and chlorine,

olya-2409 [2.1K]

I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is the second option. The pair of elements that is most likely to chemically combine and form ionic bonds would be lithium and chlorine. Lithium is metal and chlorine is nonmetal which as a compound forms ionic bonds. Hope this answers the question.

What do chemists use percent yield calculations for in the real world?

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

C. To determine how efficient reactions are.

D. To determine how much reactant they need.

Explanation:

When you are doing a reaction, you are hoping for a percent yield to close of 100%. You make the reaction and determine how many product you obtain. If you know the percent yield of a reaction you can calculate the amount of reactant you need to obtain a determined amount of product.

Having this in mind:

A. To balance the reaction equation. false. To calculate percent yield you need to balance the reaction before. You don't use percent yield to balance the reaction

B. To determine how much product they will need. false. You determine how much product you obtain after the reaction. How much product you need is independent of percent yield

C. To determine how efficient reactions are. true. A way to determine efficience of a reaction is with percent yield. An efficient reaction has a high percent yield.

D. To determine how much reactant they need. true. If you know percent yield of a reaction you can know how many reactant you must add to obtain the amount of product you want.

Given 3.4 grams of x compound with a molar mass of 85 g and 4.2 grams of y compound with a molar mass of 48 g How much of compou

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

$4.36~g~XY$

Explanation:

In this case, we can start with the reaction:

$2X + Y_2~->~2XY$

If we check the reaction, we will have 2 X and Y atoms on both sides. So, the reaction is balanced. Now, the problem give to us two amounts of reagents. Therefore, we have to find the limiting reagent. The first step then is to find the moles of each compound using the molar mass:

$3.4~g~X\frac{1~mol~X}{85~g~X}=0.04~mol~X$

$4.2~g~Y_2\frac{1~mol~Y_2}{48~g~Y_2}=0.0875~mol~Y_2$

Now, we can divide by the coefficient of each compound (given by the balanced reaction):

$\frac{0.04~mol~X}{1}=~0.04$

$\frac{0.0875~mol~Y_2}{2}=0.04375$

The smallest value is for "X", therefore this is our limiting reagent. Now, if we use the molar ratio between "X" and "XY" we can calculate the moles of XY, so:

$0.04~mol~X\frac{2~mol~XY}{2~mol~X}=0.04~mol~XY$

Finally, with the molar mass of "XY" we can calculate the grams. Now, we know that 1 mol X = 85 g X and 1 mol $Y_2$ = 48 g $Y_2$ (therefore 1 mol Y = 24 g Y). With this in mind the molar mass of XY would be 85+24 = 109 g/mol. With this in mind:

$0.04~mol~XY\frac{109~g~XY}{1~mol~XY}=4.36~g~XY$

I hope it helps!
