Will Florine react? will it combine with other elements?

Alexxx [7]

Fluorine is the most active chemical element, reacting with virtually every element. It even reacts with the noble gases at high temperatures and pressures. The noble gases, or Group 18 (VIIIA), also known as the inert gases, generally do not react with other elements.

An atom X has 2 electrons in its outer orbit. What will it do to form a stable ion?

matrenka [14]

Answer:

In a neutral molecule, the sum of the bonding valance electrons must be equal. So the products of the negative element and its charges and the positive element and its charge must be equal.

Explanation:

C1×N1 = C2×N2

If we have a 3 valance electrons , the 'A' charge will be either +3 or -5 for a full octet and valance electron in 'B' atoms will mostly result in acquisition of additional electrons (2) for an octet and relative charge of -2.

Balancing the two,

3 × A = -2 × B

To be equal, A = 2 and B = 3

Therefore, A²B³

How many grams of solute are needed to make 37.5 mL of 0.750 M KI solution? Round to three significant digits.

Marysya12 [62]

4.648 gm of solute is needed to make 37.5 mL of 0.750 M KI solution.

Solution:

We will start with the Molarity

$\text { Molarity }=\text { Mole of solute } \div \text { liter of solution }$

Also we know 1000 ml = 1 L

Therefore 37.5 ml by 1000ml we obtained 0.0375L

Equation for solving mole of solute

$\text { Mole of solute }=\text { Molarity } \times \text { Liters of solution }$

Now, multiply 0.750M by 0.0375

Substitute the known values in the above equation we get

$0.750 \times 0.0375=0.0281$

Also we know that Molar mass of KI is 166 g/mol

So divide the molar mass value to get the no of grams.

$0.028 \times 166=4.648$

So 4.648 gm of Solute is required for make 37.5 mL of 0.750 M KI solution.

Which of the following is an inexhaustible energy resource?

koban [17]

<u />C. Water is an inexhaustible energy resource among these options. Coal, oil, and natural gas we can run of, but for the foreseeable future, there will always be water.
