3rd one:
it is very reactive because it does not have a full Valence shell.
this is because it's in group 1 so it has one electron in its outer shell, and it wants to have a full outer shell ( which it can gain by losing the electron in a reaction).
Hope this helps :)
<span>Reaction: CI2 + H2O ----> HCIO + HCI
Oxidations states:
The oxitation state of Cl2 = 0, because the oxidation state of an atom alone or a molucule with one kind of atom is always 0.
The
oxidation state of Cl in HClO is +1 because the oxidation state of H is
+ 1, the oxidation state of O is - 2, and the molecule is neutral, so
+1 + 1 - 2 = 0
The oxidation state of Cl in HCl is - 1, because the oxidation state of H is +1 and the molecule is neutral, so - 1 + 1 = 0.
Also,
you shall remember that when an atom increases its oxidation state is
is oxidized and when an atoms reduces its oxidations state it is
reduced.
With that you conclude that the right option is the last statement: </span>Cl
has an oxidation number of 0 in Cl2. It is then reduced to CI- with an
oxidation number of –1 in HCl and is oxidized to Cl+ with an oxidation
number +1 in HClO.
MgS2o3 weights (24.305) + 3(16) grams pre mole so if you divide 181 g by that number you will have the number of moles. Grams*(moles/grams)=moles
Ionic bonding is the answer
