Answer:
P_2 =0.51 atm
Explanation:
Given that:
Volume (V1) = 2.50 L
Temperature (T1) = 298 K
Volume (V2) = 4.50 L
at standard temperature and pressure;
Pressure (P1) = 1 atm
Temperature (T2) = 273 K
Pressure P2 = ??
Using combined gas law:
Answer:
2KMnO4(aq) + 16HCl(aq) ------> 2MnCl2(aq) + 2KCl(aq) + 8H2O(l) + 5Cl2(g)
Explanation:
Chlorine is a diatomic halogen gas known for its greenish-yellow colour. It has a pungent smell and is only moderately soluble in water.
It is a very reactive gas and is never found in free state in nature.
Chlorine can be prepared in the laboratory by oxidation of hydrochloric acid using KMnO4 as follows;
2KMnO4(aq) + 16HCl(aq) ------> 2MnCl2(aq) + 2KCl(aq) + 8H2O(l) + 5Cl2(g)
The set up does not need to be heated.
In rubidium oxide - Rb₂O , the ions are Rb⁺ and O²⁻
Rb is a group one element with one valence electron. To become stable it loses its outer electron to gain a complete outer shell.
Electronic configuration of Rb is - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶ 5s¹
Once it loses its valence electron the configuration is;
- 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s² 4p⁶
The noble gas with this configuration is Krypton - Kr
Oxygen electron configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁴
Once it gains 2 electrons the configuration is - 1s² 2s² 3p⁶
The noble gas with this configuration is Neon - Ne
