Answer:

The oxidation number of chlorine in Al(ClO₄)₃ is +7  

Explanation:

As per the rule for assigning oxidation number, the oxidation number of Al and O is +3 and -2 respectively.

Lets us assume the oxidation number of Cl is x

+3 + [x + 4(-2)] x 3 = 0

+ 3 + 3x -24 = 0  

3x -21 = 0  

3x = 21

x = 7

It would be +7 oxidation number.
(All compounds are zero)
Al is in group lll ( or 13 depending on the system) so the oxidation state is 3.
You have 12 O at -2 each for -24. That leaves you at -24+3= -21. So 3 Cl atoms must be +21 to balance the -21 there which makes +21/3 or +7 for each Cl.

The solubility of an ionic compound can be expressed as the number of moles of the compound that will dissolve per liter of solu
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Number of moles  of sodium dissolved =  6.0 *10^23

Explanation:

The image for the question is attached

Solution

a) Total 181 ions of Na are dissolved

b)

The number of moles of sodium dissolved = 181/6.023 *10^23

Number of moles  of sodium dissolved = 5.987 * 10^23

Number of moles  of sodium dissolved =  6.0 *10^23

How are some mutations similar? Provide examples.
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Mutations can be caused by high-energy sources such as radiation or by chemicals in the environment. They can also appear spontaneously during the replication of DNA. Mutations generally fall into two types: point mutations and chromosomal aberrations. In point mutations, one base pair is changed. A single mutation can have a large effect, but in many cases, evolutionary change is based on the accumulation of many mutations with small effects. Mutational effects can be beneficial, harmful, or neutral, depending on their context or location. Most non-neutral mutations are deleterious.

Explain in words or using your diagrams how beryllium atoms would react with fluorine atoms.
Marysya12 [62]

Explanation:

To delineate the the nature of the bonds that would be formed between the two elements, let us first write the electronic configuration of the two species;

  Be  = 2, 2

  F  = 2, 7

 Beryllium is a metal with two valence electrons whereas fluorine is a halogen with seven valence electrons.

When Be loses two electrons it becomes isoelectronic with He;

                 Be →  Be²⁺ + 2e⁻  

Also, when fluorine gains  an electron, it becomes isoelectronic with Ne;

               F  + e⁻ →  F⁻

This loss and gain of electrons between the two elements creates an electrostatic attraction them and they enter into an electrovalent bond.

      Hence;

           Be²⁺  + 2F⁻ → BeF₂
