Answer:
3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
Explanation
This is a redox reaction.
- Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
- Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
- An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet or duplet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
- [Ne]= (1s²) (2s² 2p⁶)
A combination of both the reactions( Half-reactions) leads to a redox reaction.
Let us look at initial configurations of Al and Cl
[Al]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹
[Cl]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵
Hence, Al can lose 3 electrons to achieve octet config.
and, Cl can gain 1e to achieve nearest noble gas config. [Ar]
This reaction can be rewritten, by clearly mentioning the oxidation states of all the entities involved.
Al⁰ + Cl⁰ → (Al⁺³)(Cl⁻)₃
Here, Aluminum is undergoing an oxidation(i.e loss of electrons) from: 0→(+3)
Chlorine undergoes a reduction half reaction (i.e gain of electrons) from: 0→(-1). There are 3 such chlorine atoms, hence 3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
Answer:
5
Explanation:
just subtract 20-25 and 5 is left over which is how much the water when up with the rock.
Should be 18, well i guess I have to have 20 characters so good luck
M(O₂)=20g
M(O₂)=32.0 g/mol
n(O₂)=20/32.0=0.625 mol
m(C)=12 g
M(C)=12.0 g/mol
n(C)=12/12.0=1.0 mol
2C + O₂ → 2CO
1 mol 0.625 mol 1 mol
0.625-0.5=0.125 mol
2CO + O₂ → 2CO₂
0.250 mol 0.125 mol 0.250 mol
n(CO)=1 mol - 0.250 mol = 0.750 mol
M(CO)=28.0 g/mol
m(CO)=0.750*28.0=21.0 g
n(CO₂)=0.250 mol
M(CO₂)=44.0 g/mol
m(CO₂)=0.250*44.0=11.0 g
You need to find the abundance. Then, multiply the abundance by 100, and add that to the mass for each isotope. Basically, for each isotope, take the percentage abundance and add it to the mass. Multiply each calculation of these together to get your average atomic mass,
