Which of the following symbols represents a chlorine ion with a stable arrangement of eight valence electrons?

Chemistry
1 answer:
frozen [14]3 years ago
3 0

A stable arrangement of eight valence electrons : ³⁵Cl⁻¹

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Chlorine is a halogen gas, located in group 17, p block

Chlorine has an atomic number of 17 and an atomic mass of 35

Electron configuration: [Ne] 3s²3p⁵

If we look at the electron configuration, then Cl will bind 1 more electron so that the configuration is stable like Argon (atomic number 18)

So by binding this one electron, chlorine forms negative ions (anions)

³⁵Cl⁻¹

B. Cl⁻² binds 2 electrons, exceeding the octet rule

C. Cl⁺¹, releases 1 electron, remains unstable

D. Cl, the neutral form of Cl, is still unstable with a 7-electron valence configuration

) Calculate the number of moles of sulfuric acid that is contained in 250 mL of 0.500 M sulfuric acid solution
maksim [4K]

Explanation:

According to the analysis, Molarity is amount mole per volume(1L). the amount in mole would be molarity × volume in litres.

0.500M × (250/1000)L= 0.125moles.

I hope this helps**

28. Which statement is INCORRECT regarding radiation?
mash [69]

Answer:

Radiation is energy. It can come from unstable atoms that undergo radioactive decay, or it can be produced by machines. Radiation travels from its source in the form of energy waves or energized particles. There are different forms of radiation and they have different properties and effects.

Non-Ionizing and Ionizing Radiation

There are two kinds of radiation: non-ionizing radiation and ionizing radiation.

Non-ionizing radiation has enough energy to move atoms in a molecule around or cause them to vibrate, but not enough to remove electrons from atoms. Examples of this kind of radiation are radio waves, visible light and microwaves.

Ionizing radiation has so much energy it can knock electrons out of atoms, a process known as ionization. Ionizing radiation can affect the atoms in living things, so it poses a health risk by damaging tissue and DNA in genes. Ionizing radiation comes from x-ray machines, cosmic particles from outer space and radioactive elements. Radioactive elements emit ionizing radiation as their atoms undergo radioactive decay.

Radioactive decay is the emission of energy in the form of ionizing radiationHelpionizing radiationRadiation with so much energy it can knock electrons out of atoms. Ionizing radiation can affect the atoms in living things, so it poses a health risk by damaging tissue and DNA in genes.. The ionizing radiation that is emitted can include alpha particles, beta particles and/or gamma raysHelpgamma raysA form of ionizing radiation that is made up of weightless packets of energy called photons. Gamma rays can pass completely through the human body; as they pass through, they can cause damage to tissue and DNA.. Radioactive decay occurs in unstable atoms called radionuclides.
