Bromine vs Chlorine | Br vs Cl

Halogens are group VII elements in the periodic table, and all are electronegative elements and have the capability to produce -1 anions.

Bromine

Bromine is denoted by the symbol Br. This is in the 4th period of the periodic table between chlorine and iodine halogens. Its electronic configuration is [Ar] 4s2 3d10 4p5. The atomic number of bromine is 35. Its atomic mass is 79.904. Bromine staChlorine is an element in the periodic table which is denoted by Cl. It is a halogen (17th group) in the 3rd period of the periodic table. The atomic number of chlorine is 17; thus, it has seventeen protons and seventeen electrons. Its electron configuration is written as 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5. Since the p sub level should have 6 electrons to obtain the Argon, noble gas electron configuration, chlorine has the ability to attract an electron. ys as a red-brown color liquid at room temperature.

117 milligrams (mg) of purified product was isolated from a chemical reaction. This experimental yield of product represents a 8

Brut [27]

Answer:

131 mg

Explanation:

Percent yield = 89%

Actual yield = 117 mg

Percent yield is given by

$\text{Percent yield}=\dfrac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100\\\Rightarrow 89=\dfrac{117}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100\\\Rightarrow \text{Theoretical yield}=\dfrac{117}{89}\times 100\\\Rightarrow \text{Theoretical yield}=131.46\approx 131\ \text{mg}$
