The chemical reaction equation for this is
XeF6 + 3H2 ---> Xe + 6HF
Assuming gas behaves ideally, we use the ideal gas formula to solve for number of moles H2 with T = 318.15K (45C), P = 6.46 atm, V = 0.579L. Then we use the gas constant R = 0.08206 L atm K-1 mol-1.
we get n = 0.1433 moles H2
to get the mass of XeF6,
we divide 0.1433 moles H2 by 3 since 1 mole XeF6 needs 3 moles H2 to react then multiply by the molecular weight of XeF6 which is 245.28 g/mole XeF6.
0.1433 moles H2 x
x
= 11.71 g XeF6
Therefore, 11.71 g of XeF6 is needed to completely react with 0.579 L of Hydrogen gas at 45 degrees Celcius and 6.46 atm.
Answer:
The atomic number of Selenium is 34. This means that Selenium possesses 34 electrons.
The atomic number of Aluminium is 13. This means that Aluminium has 13 electrons.
Hence, there is a difference of 21 between the number of electrons in an atom of selenium and the number of electrons in an atom of aluminium.
Selenium has 6 electrons in it's outer most shell whereas aluminium has 3 electrons in its outer most shell. As a result, aluminium will have a greater tendency to lose one of its outer most electrons to become stable.
Answer:
X= Be
Y= B
Z=O
Explanation:
From the description of the compound XCl2, among the options listed only beryllium can form such compound with three lone pairs in the two chlorine atoms and no lone pair on the central atom X.
From the description of YCl3, only Boron among the options listed can form such a compound with no lone pair on the central atom and three lone pairs on each of the chlorine atoms.
From the description of ZCl2, only oxygen forms the compound OCl2 among the elements listed where oxygen possesses two lone pairs and each chlorine atom possesses three lone pairs each.
Answer:K2X
Explanation: Valency can be defined as the combining power of an element. It is the valency that dictates the value an element will have when writing a chemical formula for its compound.
MgX is a compound of magnesium and an element X. The valency of magnesium in most of its compound is +2. Now for the 2 to have been absent in the chemical formula, this shows that the element X itself have a valency if -2 for the valencies of both to have canceled out.
Now considering the element potassium, it is an alkaline metal belonging to group 1 of the periodic table. Hence, it is expected that it has a valency of +1
Forming a compound with element X means there would be an exchange of valencies between the two. We have established that x has a valency of -2. The formula of the compound thus formed by exchanging the valencies of both element would be K2X
