5 0

Answer:

a) Cl, 17 protons and 17 electrons

Explanation:

The elements of group 17 are called halogens. These are six elements Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, Astatine. The atomic number of chlorine is 17. Its means it has 17 protons and 17 electrons.

The sum of neutrons and protons is the mass number of an atom while the number of protons are number of electrons is the atomic number of an atom. Thus the atomic mass of chlorine will be 17+18 = 35 amu

Number protons = 17

Number of electrons = 17

Number of neutrons = 18

Properties of Chlorine:

1. it is greenish-yellow irritating gas.

2. its melting point is 172.2 K

3. its boiling point is 238.6 K

4. it is disinfectant and can kill the bacteria.

5. it is also used in manufacturing of paper, paints and textile industries.

What would be the mass of 9.03*10^21 molecules of hydrobromic acid
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

2.11 g hydrobromic acid (correct to 3SF)

Explanation:

Molecular formula of hydrobromic acid = C2H5BrO2

mass of C2H5BrO2 = 140.96g

Beginning with what we're given, 9.03*10^21 we then make a conversion by using Avegadro's number which is 6.02*10^23 per mole (Oct. 23 at 6:02 am is national mole day :) Then, we need to convert out of moles, 140.96g hydrombromic acid per mole.

It looks like this:

9.03*10^21 molecules • (1 mol C2H5BrO2 / 6.02*10^23 molecules) • (140g C2H5BrO2 / 1 mol) = 2.1144 g C2H5BrO2
