Answer:

The answer to your question is: b

Explanation:

a. Magnesium shares an electron somewhat unevenly from its 3s orbital with the 3p orbital of chlorine producing a mildly polar covalent bond.  This option is wrong because Mg does not share electrons it loses electrons.

b. Magnesium loses and electron from the 3s and gives it up to the 3p of chlorine producing an ionic bond.  This option is correct, Mg loses one electron and Cl receives it, the bond formed between Mg and Cl is ionic.

c. Magnesium does not react chemically with chlorine because magnesium gives up electrons, but chlorine only shares electrons.  This answer is wrong, Mg and Cl react and produce MgCl₂.

d. Magnesium shares an electron from the 3s orbital with the 3p orbital of chlorine producing a covalent bond. Mg does not share electrons and is not able to produce covalent bonds.

Questions 18-20 refer to the reaction 2NH3 (g) ↔ N2 (g) + 3H2 (g), and ΔH = 92.2 kJ.
Fittoniya [83]
18. <span>Answer is </span>A

<span>  
<span>Since the enthalpy of reaction is positive, the forward reaction is<span> an endothermic reaction which means the energy is gained from the surrounding to happen the reaction. If the temperature decreases, according to the </span></span>Le Chatelier's principle, the system tries to become equilibrium by increasing temperature. Since forward reaction is endothermic (because of the bond breaking), the backward reaction is exothermic (because of the bond making) which releases the energy to the surroundings. This makes the increase of temperature. So if the backward reaction is promoted because of the decrease of temperature, then the concentration of H</span><span>₂ will decrease.</span>

<span>
</span>

19. Answer is A.

The reactant side has 2 moles/molecules of reactants and the product side has 4 moles/molecules of products which come from 1 N₂(g) and 3 H₂<span>(g). If the pressure is reduced in the system, according to the Le Chatelier's principle, the system tries to increase the pressure. </span><span>Hence, forward reaction is promoted because of the higher number of molecules in product side. If the forward reaction is promoted, the concentration of NH</span>₃(g) will decreased.


<span>20. </span>Answer is C.

If the concentration of reactant is increased in the system, according to the Le Chatelier's principle, the system tries to reduce the concentration of that reactant. So if NH₃(g) concentration is increased, then to be equilibrium, the forward reaction will be promoted. Then the concentration of N₂<span>(g) will increase.</span>

What is the percent composition of Br in CuBr3?
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

about 79% (79.04369332 to be exact)

Explanation:

Percent composition=(Molar mass of element x amount of it)/Molar mass of compound x 100

Br= 3 x 79.9/303.25 x100=79.04369332
