J.J. Thomson hypothesized and discovered that the atom was not the smallest unit of matter but that instead there were much smaller units. He discovered "sub-atomic particles" which make up atoms. The sub-atomic particle that Thomson discovered was the electron. He discovered this through a process of experiments testing cathode rays.
Barium has a 2+ charge as it is in group 2 in the periodic table and so it has two electrons in its outer shell and chloride has a -1 charge on its chloride ion. So we will need two of the chloride ions as we have a 2+ charge to match the amount of charge on one barium ion- forming barium ion
BaCI2
Answer:
C. is the answer i did the test and it was right.
Answer:
The correct option is c) exothermic, negative.
Explanation:
Reactions that releases heat to the surroundings are called exothermic, and are characterized by negative entalpy (ΔH) values.
