Atoms are (stable) if it has (valence) electrons in its outer most energy level.
Answer:
1. The metal atom/ion in these compounds are Ni and Ni2+ respectively.
2. The electrons from s oribital will jump to d orbital and so I expect CO to donate electron pairs in 4p and 4s orbitals and form sp3 hybridisation.
Answer:
4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Chemistry - Reactions</u>
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
RxN: Fe + O₂ → Fe₂O₃
<u>Step 2: Balance</u>
We need to balance both Fe and O.
LCM of 2 and 3 is 6:
Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
We now need the same amount of Fe on both sides:
4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
N = cv
1.46 = 0.1 x v
v = 1.46/0.1
v = 14.6 (litres if it’s moles per litre)
