What is the octet rule

Chemistry

The octet rule is that atoms must have 8 valence electrons to have an octet. Usually, when atoms have an octet, they tend not to bond with any other atoms because they are already stable and do not need to bond anymore.

This is a rule that says that atoms tend to combine to complete electrons to 8. And that means that the two atoms tend to combine to complete a shell to 8 electrons. Hope i helped. Have a nice day

If you produced 76.10 grams of potassium chloride in the reaction how many grams of potassium were required?
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:39.8375

Explanation:

The mole for the equation is 1:1

Then the molar mass of KCl is 74.5g

Molar mass of k is 39

74.5g of KCl gives 39g of k

76.10g of KCl gives xg of k

X= 76.10×39/74.5

X= 2967.9/7

X= 39.8375

or a particular isomer of C 8 H 18 , the combustion reaction produces 5104.1 kJ of heat per mole of C 8 H 18 ( g ) consumed, und
beks73 [17]

Answer:

The standard enthalpy of formation of this isomer of C_{8}H_{18} is -220.1 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

The given chemical reaction is as follows.

C_{8}H_{18}(g)+ \frac{25}{2}O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 8CO_{2}(g)+9H_{2}O(g)

\Delta H^{o}_{rxn}= -5104.1kJ/mol

The expression for the entropy change for the reaction is as follows.

\Delta H^{o}_{rxn}=[8\Delta H^{o}_{f}(CO_{2}) +9\Delta H^{o}_{f}(H_{2}O)]-[\Delta H^{o}_{f}(C_{8}H_{18})+ \frac{25}{2}\Delta H^{o}_{f}(O_{2})]

\Delta H^{o}_{f}(H_{2}O)= -241.8kJ/mol

\Delta H^{o}_{f}(CO_{2})= -393.5kJ/mol

\Delta H^{o}_{f}(O_{2})= 0kJ/mol

Substitute the all values in the entropy change expression.

-5104.1kJ/mol=[8(-393.5)+9(-241.8)kJ/mol]-[\Delta H^{o}_{f}(C_{8}H_{18})+ \frac{25}{2}(0)kJ/mol]

-5104.1kJ/mol=-5324.2kJ/mol -\Delta H^{o}_{f}(C_{8}H_{18})

\Delta H^{o}_{f}(C_{8}H_{18}) =-5324.2kJ/mol +5104.1kJ/mol

=-220.1kJ/mol

Therefore, The standard enthalpy of formation of this isomer of C_{8}H_{18} is -220.1 kJ/mol.
