Think about what you have learned about electrons, energy levels, and electron configurations. In 2 or 3 sentences, explain why

an atom of Argon, Ar is less reactive (more stable) than an atom of Chlorine Cl.

Alr u see. argon is in group 8 of the periodic table, also known as noble gases. noble gases all have full shells, octect. this means that there is no chance for covalent or ionic bonding, no valence electrons available to bonding.

however, chlorine is in group 7 of the periodic table. this means to obtain a full octect shell, they will have to undergo covalent bonding to form a full octect shell.

hence, argon is more stable compared to chlorine

How many molecules of CrCl₃ are produced when 2.89 moles of CuCl₂ react? *<br> 2Cr+3CuCI2-2CrCI3+3Cu
juin [17]

Explanation:

The reaction is CaCO

3

+2HCl→CaCl

2

+H

2

O+CO

2

.

Thus, 2 moles of HCl reacts with one mole of calcium carbonate to produce one mole each of calcium chloride, water and carbon dioxide respectively.

Hence, 3 moles of HCl will react with excess of calcium carbonate to produce 3×

=1.5 mol of carbon dioxide

Earth is approximately 1.5x10^8 km from the sun. The speed of light is 3.0x10^8. How many minutes does it take for light to reac
Masteriza [31]
1.5 x 10^{8} mm = 1500 x 10^{8} m

1500 x 10^{8} / ( 3.0 x 10^{8} ) = 500 s

500/60 = 8.3 

So approximately it takes 8.5 minutes 


Hope that helps, Good luck! (:<span />

How does a balanced chemical equation demonstrate conservation of mass?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

A balanced chemical equation will demonstrate the law of conservation of mass because the amount of elements on one side (reactants) will equal the amount of elements on the other side (products).

Explanation:

CH₄ + 4Cl₂ -> CCl₄ + 4HCl

Reactants:

1 C

4 H

8 Cl

Products:

1 C

4 H

8 Cl

A student prepares a weak acid solution by dissolving 0.2000 g HZ to give 100. mL solution. The titration requires 33.5 mL of 0.
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

a)M=0.20/(0.335*0.1025)= 0.20/ 0.034 = 5.88 g/mol

b) if 0.100g is used instead of 0.200g

M = 0.1 / 0.034 = 2.94  hence the molar mass will be too low

Explanation:

0.2000 gHZ gives  100ml acid solution

33.5 ml of 0.1025 M NaOH  is required to prepare it

the moles = mass / molar mass

mass = 0.200 gHZ

moles = 0.0335*100 * 0.1025 = 0.034

therefore molar mass = mass / moles

                                  M=0.20/(0.335*0.1025)= 0.20/ 0.034 = 5.88

if 0.100g is used instead of 0.200g

M = 0.1 / 0.034 = 2.94  hence the molar mass will be too low

TRUE FALSE? The MOLE is a unit in Chemistry that serves as a bridge between the ATOMIC and MACROSCOPIC worlds?​
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A mole is defined as 6.02214076 × 1023 of some chemical unit, be it atoms, molecules, ions, or others. The mole is a convenient unit to use because of the great number of atoms, molecules, or others in any substance.
