Answer: On losing 6 moles of water, cobalt chloride forms unstable violet-coloured ions, before generating its stable blue-coloured anhydrous form.

Explanation:

The hydrated cobalt chloride loses its 6 water of crystallization, then dissociates into ions: cobalt ions and chlorine ions that appear violet, and quickly combined to form the stable anhydrous Cobalt chloride with blue colour.

Can Hydrocyanic acid be a Lewis Acid? What about a Lewis Base?
FinnZ [79.3K]

HCN is a Bronsted acid; it can dissociate into H+ and CN-. And H+ is a Lewis acid because it accepts election pairs. ... In order for H+ and CN- to be formed, Hydrogen in HCN donates its electrons to Carbon. So in this sense, Hydrogen is the lewis base and Carbon is the lewis acid.

What is the molecular formula of each compound?<br> (c) Empirical formula HgCl (m = 5 472.1 g/mol)
beks73 [17]

The molecular formula of HgCl (m = 5 472.1 g/mol) is Hg2Cl4.

The molecular formula is an expression that defines the number of atoms of each element in one molecule of a compound. It shows the actual number of each atom in a molecule.

<h3>Molecular formula: What is it?</h3>

A chemical formula is a way to communicate information in chemistry about the proportions of atoms that make up a specific chemical compound or molecule. Chemical element symbols, numbers, and occasionally other symbols like parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas, and plus and minus signs are used to represent the chemical elements.

A molecule's molecular formula reveals which atoms and how many of each kind are included within it. No subscript is used if there is just one atom of a certain kind. A subscript is added to the symbol for an atom if it contains two or more of a certain type of atom.

Why does water flow decrease in your shower when someone flushes the toilet ​
Rashid [163]

Answer:

A toilet requires a large amount of cold water to flush. So, when the toilet flushes while you're in the shower, it's stealing from your shower's cold water supply. When the pressure-balancing valve senses the drop in cold water pressure, it responds by restricting the hot water pressure.

Arrange the sublevels in ascending order by the number of electrons they can contain. p sublevel s sublevel d sublevel f subleve
inn [45]

Electronic configuration of the atom describes  the arrangemnet of electrons in different shells and subshells ( sublevels).

Now , there are 4 types of sublevels: s, p , d and f . These sublevels have orbital which are spaces with high probability of having an electron and each orbital can have maximum 2 electrons.

Therefore,

s-sublevel has 1 orbital - it can have maximum 2 electrons.

p-sublevel has 3 orbitals - it can have maximum 6 electrons

d-sublevel has 5 orbitals - it can have maximum 10 electrons

f-sublevel has 7 orbitals - it can have maximum 14 electrons.

Hence, the acsending order of sublevels in terms of maximum number of electrons is:

<h2>s < p < d < f</h2>
