Answer: B. 1:2
Explanation: Beryllium and chlorine forms a binary ionic compound. Ionic compound is formed when a metal loses its electrons to a receiving non metal. Beryllium (metal) has two valence electrons while chlorine (nonmetal) has seven valence electrons, and so a beryllium atom has to give out its two valence electrons to attain a duplet stable structure while a chlorine atom will gain one electron to attain its stable octet structure. In the reaction between beryllium and chlorine, two atoms of chlorine have to accept the two electrons from one beryllium atom to attain their stable octet structure.
The formula of the compound formed is BeCl2.
Molten barium chloride is separeted
into two species :
BaCl₂(l) → Ba(l) + Cl₂(g),
but first ionic bonds in this salt are separeted because of heat:
BaCl₂(l) → Ba²⁺(l) + 2Cl⁻(l).
Reaction of reduction at cathode(-): Ba²⁺(l) + 2e⁻ → Ba(l).
Reaction of oxidation at anode(+): 2Cl⁻(l) → Cl₂(g) + 2e⁻.
<span>The anode is positive and the cathode is negative.</span>
Answer:
15m
Explanation:
vi = 0
vf = 10
a = -9.8
10^2 = 0 + 2(-9.8)(x2-x1) = -5.1
20-5.1 = 14.9m = 15m
