Answer:
P³⁻ + Cl⁻ --> PCl₃
Explanation:
PCl₃: phosphorus trichloride. prefix in front of chloride is "tri"–meaning three.
Answer:
Periods have consecutive atomic number as they are in a row and groups are vertical meaning they are in a column and groups have similar properties
Answer:
B. the products have a smaller number of available energy microstates than the reactants.
Answer:
0.4694 moles of CrCl₃
Explanation:
The balanced equation is:
Cr₂O₃(s) + 3CCl₄(l) → 2CrCl₃(s) + 3COCl₂(aq)
The stoichiometry of the equation is how much moles of the substances must react to form the products, and it's represented by the coefficients of the balanced equation. So, 1 mol of Cr₂O₃ must react with 3 moles of CCl₄ to form 2 moles of CrCl₃ and 3 moles of COCl₂.
The stoichiometry calculus must be on a moles basis. The compounds of interest are Cr₂O₃ and CrCl₃. The molar masses of the elements are:
MCr = 52 g/mol
MCl = 35.5 g/mol
MO = 16 g/mol
So, the molar mass of the Cr₂O₃ is = 2x52 + 3x35.5 = 210.5 g/mol.
The number of moles is the mass divided by the molar mass, so:
n = 49.4/210.5 = 0.2347 mol of Cr₂O₃.
For the stoichiometry:
1 mol of Cr₂O₃ ------------------- 2 moles of CrCl₃
0.2347 mol of Cr₂O₃----------- x
By a simple direct three rule:
x = 0.4694 moles of CrCl₃
The process by which rocks are broken down to form soil is called weathering. It is divided into 3 types, physical, chemical and biological weathering.
Physical weathering is the process by which rocks are broken down as a result of physical agitations. It is also called mechanical weathering and during this process the chemical nature of the rock is not affected. Biological weathering has to do with the weakening of rocks and their eventual disintegration as a result of plants and animals activities. Chemical weathering refers to the disintegration of the rock particles as a result of chemical reactions.
