Explanation:

When an atom's outermost orbital gains or loses electrons (also known as valence electrons), the atom forms an ion. An ion with more protons than electrons carries a net positive charge and is called a cation. An ion with more electrons than protons carries a net negative charge and is called an anion

Which would have more mass: a mole of sodium or a mole of copper? How do you know?

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

copper

Explanation:

so for this you can work out the mass for both and compare

so mass = moles × mr

so mass of sodium = 1 × 23= 23 g

and mass of copper = 1 × 63.5= 63.5 g

so copper have more mass :)

Suppose you have 1000 lb of waste copper (II) oxide sitting in the basement of your factory. Do you see a problem with sending i

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

Yes.

Explanation:

Yes, we have a problem with sending it to a landfill of copper oxide because it has harmful effect on the health of humans as well as more weight of the copper oxide. Copper oxide usually found in powder form which can easily be inhaled that causes death of the cell due to toxic effect on the mitochondria and lysosomes of the cell. It makes problem of health in carrying the copper oxide from the basement of the factory to the landfill region due to its power form so we can say that it can do problems to human health while carrying from one place to another.

Butanal, an aldehyde, can be made from 1-bromobutane, but it requires two reactions in sequence. What are the two reagents that

hammer [34]

Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

My aim is to convert 1-bromobutane to butanal. The first step is to react the 1-bromobutane substrate with water. This reaction occurs by SN2 mechanism to yield 1-butanol. Hence reagent A is water.

1-butanol is now reacted with an oxidizing agent such as acidified K2Cr2O7 (reagent B) to yield butanal. Note that primary alkanols are oxidized to alkanals.

These sequence of reactions are shown in the image attached.

A solution of CaCl 2 in water forms a mixture that is 42.0 % calcium chloride by mass. If the total mass of the mixture is 839.6

Lerok [7]

Answer : The masses of calcium chloride and water used were, 352.6 g and 487.0 g.

Explanation :

As we are given that 42.0 % calcium chloride by mass that means 42.0 grams of calcium chloride present in 100 grams of solution.

In the solution or mixture, 42.0 % calcium chloride and 58.0 % (100-42.0=58.0) water.

Now we have to determine the mass of calcium chloride for 839.6 grams of solution.

As, 100 grams of solution contains 42.0 grams of calcium chloride

So, 839.6 grams of solution contains $\frac{42.0}{100}\times 839.6=352.6$ grams of calcium chloride

Thus, the mass of calcium chloride used is, 352.6 grams.

Now we have to determine the mass of water.

Mass of water = Mass of solution - Mass of calcium chloride

Mass of water = 839.6 g - 352.6 g

Mass of water = 487.0 g

Thus, the mass of water used is, 487.0 grams.
