Answer:

General chemical equation

          2 M + 3 X₂ → 2 MX₃

Explanation:

When metal reacts with halogens metal halide as a product obtained.

Now oxidation state of metal assume (+3)

and oxidation state  for halogen = (+1)

So formula of the metal halide is (MX₃)

           Denote the metal as M and halogen as X

                    the balanced chemical equation

                         2 M + 3 X₂ → 2 MX₃

So the resulted general equation when metal react with halogen is

                                       2 M + 3 X₂ → 2 MX₃

Describe light with respect to its speed and its dual nature as both a wave and a particle.
Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Scientists have been debating over light being a wave or particle since its recognition.

Sir Issac Newton discovered that light had frequency and other properties. Newton described light to be a particle because it created shadows which were sharp and very clear.

Francesco Maria Grimaldi, claimed that light was a wave. This was because this scientist observed the diffraction of light and hence, claimed light to be a type of wave.

The speed of light is 299 792 458 m / s. Nothing can travel faster than light.

Sixty liters of a gas were collected over water when the barometer read 663 mmhg , and the temperature was 20∘c. what volume wou
lesya [120]
First, let's compute the number of moles in the system assuming ideal gas behavior. 

PV = nRT
(663 mmHg)(1atm/760 mmHg)(60 L) = n(0.0821 L-atm/mol-K)(20+273 K)
Solving for n,
n = 2.176 moles

At standard conditions, the standard molar volume is 22.4 L/mol. Thus,

Standard volume = 22.4 L/mol * 2.176 mol =<em> 48.74 L</em>
