Explanation:
Because the solution only contains Na+ and Cl− ions, and water, and not the metal Na(s) . You cannot evaporate the water from the solution and hope to obtain anything but NaCl(s) .
.
Na(s) has an electron configuration of 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^1 , but Na+(aq) has an electron configuration of 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 . That means they are not the same element, and thus, there is no straightforward way of extracting Na(s) from a NaCl (aq) solution
To find the atomic mass of chlorine, the atomic mass of each isotope is multiplied by the relative abundance (the percent abundance in decimal form) and then the individual masses are added together. The atomic mass of chlorine is 35.45 amu.
Answer:it is in group 7
Explanation:it is in this group because in the increasing number of atomic number the element is found in group seven. The element is likely to receive 3 electrons while bonding with another element to make it stable.
