Electronegativity values increase from left to right across a period in the periodic table because there is an increase in the c

First, let us define Electronegativity. Electronegativity is "the ability of an atom to attract electrons." In addition, electronegativity increases in elements from left to right, while on the other hand, electronegativity decreases from top to bottom in an element group. It decreases because the atomic radius increases as we go downward an element in the group.

Which of these statements best describes the formula unit for a compound made from Mg and Cl?

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

It is MgCl₂ because the total positive charge on Mg is two

Explanation:

The bond between the atoms that makes up the formula unit of the compound is an ionic bond. This bond involves the transfer of electrons between atoms.

Mg is in the second group on the period on the periodic table. It has two valence electrons and would readily lose it to have a stable atomic configuration like those of noble gases. This leaves magnesium with a net positive charge of 2. Each chlorine atom gains one electron to achieve their own octet.

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

$HCl conc=2.2M$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Mass of zinc $Mass_{z_n}=2.5g$

Initial conc of HCl $HConc_1=6.0M$

Initial volume of HCl $Hvol_1=20.0mL$

Molar mass of zinc $M_{Z_n}=65.38g/mol$

Generally the equation for reaction is mathematically given by

$2HCL+Zn\implies ZnCl_2 +H_2$

Generally the equation for moles of zinc $m_{z_n}$ is mathematically given by

$m_{z_n}=\frac{Mass_{Z_n}}{M_{Z_n}}$

$m_{z_n}=\frac{2.5g}{M_{65.38}}$

$m_{z_n}=0.038molZn$

Generally the equation for moles of $m_{HCl}$ is mathematically given by

$m_{HCl}=HConc_1*Hvol_1$

$m_{HCl}=6.0M*20.0mL$

$m_{HCl}=6.0M*20.0*10^{-3}L$

$m_{HCl}=0.12\ mol\ HCl$

Generally the reacted moles of HCl $HCl_[reacted]$ is mathematically given by

Since

Zn:HCl =1:2

Therefore

$HCl_[reacted]=0.038*\frac{2}{1}$

$HCl_[reacted]=0.076mol \ HCl$

Generally the moles of HCl after Zn oxidization X is mathematically given by

$x=0.12-0.076$

$x=0.044 mol HCl$

Generally the conc of hydrochloride acid X is mathematically given by

$X=\frac{0.044}{0.020}$

$X=2.2 M Hcl$

Therefore Conc of HCl

$HCl conc=2.2M$
