Answer:

Formula weight of MCl = 58.55 g/mol

M = Sodium

Explanation:

Calculation of the moles of AgCl as:-

Mass = 0.5471 g

Molar mass of AgCl = 143.32 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles= \frac{0.5471\ g}{143.32\ g/mol}

Moles= 0.00381\ mol

1 mole of AgCl is produced from 1 mole of MCl

So, moles of MCl = 0.00381 mol

Mass = 0.2231 grams

Molar mass = Mass/Moles = 0.2231 grams/0.00381 mol= 58.55 g/mol

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol

Molar mass of M = Molar mass of MCl - Molar mass of Cl = 58.55 g/mol - 35.5 g/mol = 23.05 g/mol

This mass corresponds to sodium.

What are the two types of collisions? What is the difference between them? Types: a. Types: b. Compare and contrast the two type
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The two types of collisions are :

Type a)

<u>Elastic collision</u>

Type b)

<u>Inelastic collision</u>

Explanation:

Collision : It is the event when two bodies collide with each other for small period of time.

During collision , the bodies exert force to each other.

Example :

When boxer hits with punches .

When bat hits the ball in cricket match.

So, collision is short duration interaction of two objects. When the objects collides , there is  change in their velocity.

All collision follow law of conservation of momentum . Their type is decided by , whether they follow conservation of energy also.

<u>Compare and contrast the two types</u>

a) Elastic collision : Those collision in which no loss or gain of kinetic energy will occur. They follow conservation of kinetic energy. Example : ideal gaseous molecule

b) Inelastic collision : Those collision in which Change in kinetic energy will occur. They do not follow conservation of kinetic energy.Almost all conservation are inelastic.

Here Kinetic energy get converted into other form of energy.

What is the electron configuration for a neutral atom of fluorine.
zavuch27 [327]

Answer and Explanation: The full ground-state electron configuration for a fluorine atom is 1s2, 2s2, 2p5. We determine this by first identifying the number of electrons in a fluorine atom. If the atom is neutral, it will have nine electrons to match the nine protons int he fluorine nucleus
