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.

A sample of a compound is found to contain 40.0% carbon, 6.7% hydrogen, and 53.3% oxygen. What is the empirical formula of this

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The empirical formula is CH2O, and the molecular formula is some multiple of this

Explanation:

In 100 g of the unknown, there are 40.0⋅g12.011⋅g⋅mol−1 C; 6.7⋅g1.00794⋅g⋅mol−1 H; and 53.5⋅g16.00⋅g⋅mol−1 O.

We divide thru to get, C:H:O = 3.33:6.65:3.34. When we divide each elemental ratio by the LOWEST number, we get an empirical formula of CH2O, i.e. near enough to WHOLE numbers. Now the molecular formula is always a multiple of the empirical formula; i.e. (EF)n=MF.So 60.0⋅g⋅mol−1=n×(12.011+2×1.00794+16.00)g⋅mol−1.Clearly n=2, and the molecular formula is 2×(CH2O) = CxHyOz.

WHAT ARE SOME POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES IF A HUMAN BODY DOES NOT MAINTAIN HOMEOSTASIS

BARSIC [14]

Answer: If homeostasis is disrupted, it must be controlled or a disease/disorder may result.

Explanation: What happens if there's disruption? Your body systems work together to maintain balance. If that balance is shifted or disrupted and homeostasis is not maintained, the results may not allow normal functioning of the organism.

In a reaction between 6.0 g of oxygen gas, 4.0 g of hydrogen gas, and 5.0 g of solid sulfur at standard temperature and pressure

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

The limiting reagent is the O₂

Explanation:

We can think, this reaction

2O₂(g) + H₂(g) + S(s) → H₂SO₄

Mole of each = Mass / molar mass

6 g / 32 g/m = 0.187 mole O₂

4g / 2 g/m = 2 mole H₂

5g / 32.06 g/m = 0.156 mole S

Ratio between reactants is 2:1:1, 1:2:1, 1:1:2

For 2 mole of O₂, I need to react 1 mol of H₂ and 1 mol of S

0.187 mole of O₂, I need (the half)

0.093 mole of H₂ and 0.093 mole of S

For 1 mole of H₂, I need to react 2 mole of O₂ and 1 mol of S

2 mole of H₂, I need (the double of O₂ and the same for S)

4 mole of O₂ ; 2 mole of S

For 1 mol of S, I need to react 1 mol of H₂ and 2 mole of O₂

0.156 mole I need the same amount for H₂ and the double for O₂

0.156 mole of H₂ and 0.312 mole of O₂

In both cases, I can't make react, all the mass of oxygen, so this is the limiting reagent.

How do scientists predict the polarity of molecules, the distribution of non-polar and polar molecules?

EastWind [94]

Answer:

Explanation:

Polar molecules interact with other molecules of similar polarity to form solutions. Non-polar molecules do not interact the same way.

Look at the reaction below.

defon

Answer:

H2SO4

Explanation:

H2SO4 is actually one of the strongest acids, coming to pH value very close to 1 . Acids transfer their hydrogen ions to other substances , such as water , and usually have hydrogen their formula . In this case , H2SO4 has hydrogen in its formula and is acid in the case .

Hope it helps you !!
