A Halogen is a group (or a column) on the periodic table. It contains fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and astatine!
Answer:
In liquids, particles are quite close together and move with random motion throughout the container. Particles move rapidly in all directions but collide with each other more frequently than in gases due to shorter distances between particles.
Explanation:
The balanced equation of the reaction is given as;
Mg(OH)2 (s) + 2 HBr (aq) → MgBr2 (aq) + 2 H2O (l)
1. How many grams of MgBr2 will be produced from 18.3 grams of HBr?
From the reaction;
2 mol of HBr produces 1 mol of MgBr2
Converting to masses using;
Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass
Molar mass of HBr = 80.91 g/mol
Molar mass of MgBr2 = 184.113 g/mol
This means;
(2 * 80.91 = 161.82g) of HBr produces (1 * 184.113 = 184.113g) MgBr2
18.3g would produce x
161.82 = 184.113
18.3 = x
x = (184.113 * 18.3 ) / 161.82 = 20.8 g
2. How many moles of H2O will be produced from 18.3 grams of HBr?
Converting the mass to mol;
Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass = 18.3 / 80.91 = 0.226 mol
From the reaction;
2 mol of HBr produces 2 mol of H2O
0.226 mol would produce x
2 =2
0.226 = x
x = 0.226 * 2 / 2 = 0.226 mol
3. How many grams of Mg(OH)2 are needed to completely react with 18.3 grams of HBr?
From the reaction;
2 mol of HBr reacts with 1 mol of Mg(OH)2
18.3g of HBr = 0.226 mol
2 = 1
0.226 = x
x = 0.226 * 1 /2
x = 0.113 mol
F (Fluorine) is in column (group/family) VIIA, or the "halogens". When you see the halogens (Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, and Iodine) in combination with a metal, each halogen atom present will carry a -1 charge. We can see that the atom has no charge, so the metal must cancel out the negative charges brought by the two fluorine atoms.
(Charge on m) + 2*(charge on fluorine) = 0
(Charge on m) + 2*(-1) = 0
(Charge on m) - 2 = 0
Charge on m ion = +2
