a +2 Ne
Chemistry
1 answer:
irinina [24]3 years ago

Answer:

Ne.

Explanation:

Neutral argon, atomic number 18, has 18 electrons.

Cl⁻:

Neutral atom of Cl, atomic number 17, has 17 electrons.

When it gains electron and be Cl⁻, then it has 18 electrons a neutral Ar.

S²⁻:

Neutral atom of S, atomic number 16, has 16 electrons.

When it gains 2 electrons and be S²⁻, then it has 18 electrons a neutral Ar.

K⁺:

Neutral atom of K, atomic number 19, has 19 electrons.

When it losses electron and be K⁺, then it has 18 electrons a neutral Ar.

<em>Ca²⁺:</em>

Neutral atom of Ca, atomic number 20, has 20 electrons.

When it losses 2 electrons and be Ca²⁺, then it has 18 electrons a neutral Ar.

Ne:

It is a noble gas that has 10 electrons.

<em>So, the right choice is: Ne.</em>

How many minutes will it take to plate out 4.50 g of Cu from a solution of Cu(NO3)2 (aq) onto the cathode of an electrolytic cel
ipn [44]

Answer:

It will take 28.5 minutes

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: </u>Data given

Mass of Cu = 4.50 grams

8.00 A of current are used

Molar mass of Cu = 63.5 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate time needed

Cu2+ →Electricity → Cu

we notice a flow of 2 electrons ⇒ This means the Faraday constant = 2F

Since Molar mass of Cu is 63.5 g/mol

63.5 grams of Cu is deposited by 2*96500 C

4.50 grams of Cu ((2*96500)/63.5)  * 4.50 = 13677.17 C

Q = It

13677.17 = 8t*60 seconds

t = 28.5 minutes
