<u>Answer:</u> The strongest inter particle force in $MgCl_2$ is electrostatic force of attraction.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Magnesium chloride is an ionic compound which is formed by the combination of magnesium ions and chloride ions.

Ionic compounds are defined as the compounds which are formed by the complete transfer of electrons from one atom to another atom.

In these compounds, oppositely charged ions are attracted towards each other to form a compound.

The attraction between oppositely charged species is very strong and is known as electrostatic force of attraction.

Hence, the strongest inter particle force in $MgCl_2$ is electrostatic force of attraction.

A compound is formed when 12.2 g Mg combines completely with 5.16 g N. What is the percent composition of this compound? Please

STALIN [3.7K]

3Mg + N₂= Mg₃N₂
n(Mg)=12,2g÷<span>24,4g/mol=0,5mol-limiting reagent
</span>n(N₂)=5,16g÷28g/mol=0,18mol
n(Mg₃N₂):n(Mg)=1:3, n(Mg₃N₂)=0,166mol, m(Mg₃N₂)=0,166·101,2=16,8g.
%(N)= 2·Ar(N)÷Mr(Mg₃N₂) = 2·14÷101,2=27,66%=0,2766
%(Mg) = 3·Ar(Mg)÷Mr(Mg₃N₂)= 3·24,4÷101,2=72,34% or 100% - 27,66%= 72,34%.

Which of the following Period 4 elements has the most metallic characteristics?

stealth61 [152]

The scale of most metal characteristics goes from the bottom left-hand corner.

The least metallic is the top right-hand.

So then that means that

Calcium-YES, second column
Germanium-No, to far, in the middle
Arsenic-Non-metal,
Bromine, same for this

Calcium

A mysterious white powder could be powdered sugar (C12H22O11), cocaine (C17H21NO4), codeine (C18H21NO3), norfenefrine (C8H11NO2)

rodikova [14]

Norfenefrine (C₈H₁₁NO₂).

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

We will solve a case related to one of the colligative properties, namely freezing point depression.

The freezing point of the solution is the temperature at which the solution begins to freeze. The difference between the freezing point of the solvent and the freezing point of the solution is called freezing point depression.

$\boxed{ \ \Delta T_f = T_f(solvent) - T_f(solution) \ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ \Delta T_f = K_f \times molality \ }$

<u>Given:</u>

A mysterious white powder could be,

powdered sugar (C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁) with a molar mass of 342.30 g/moles,
cocaine (C₁₇H₂₁NO₄) with a molar mass of 303.35 g/moles,
codeine (C₁₈H₂₁NO₃) with a molar mass of 299.36 g/moles,
norfenefrine (C₈H₁₁NO₂) with a molar mass of 153.18 g/moles, or
fructose (C₆H₁₂O₆) with a molar mass of 180.16 g/moles.

When 82 mg of the powder is dissolved in 1.50 mL of ethanol (density = 0.789 g/cm³, normal freezing point −114.6°C, Kf = 1.99°C/m), the freezing point is lowered to −115.5°C.

<u>Question: </u>What is the identity of the white powder?

<u>The Process:</u>

Let us identify the solute, the solvent, initial, and final temperatures.

The solute = the powder
The solvent = ethanol
The freezing point of the solvent = −114.6°C
The freezing point of the solution = −115.5°C

Prepare masses of solutes and solvents.

Mass of solute = 82 mg = 0.082 g
Mass of solvent = density x volume, i.e., $\boxed{ \ 0.789 \ \frac{g}{cm^3} \times 1.50 \ cm^3 = 1.1835 \ g = 0.00118 \ kg \ }$

We must prepare the solvent mass unit in kg because the unit of molality is the mole of the solute divided by the mass of the solvent in kg.

The molality formula is as follows:

$\boxed{ \ m = \frac{moles \ of \ solute}{kg \ of \ solvent} \ } \rightarrow \boxed{ \ m = \frac{mass \ of \ solute \ (g)}{molar \ mass \ of \ solute \times kg \ of \ solvent} \ }$

Now we combine it with the formula of freezing point depression.

$\boxed{ \ \Delta T_f = K_f \times \frac{mass \ of \ solute \ (g)}{molar \ mass \ of \ solute \times kg \ of \ solvent} \ }$

It is clear that we will determine the molar mass of the solute (denoted by Mr).

We enter all data into the formula.

$\boxed{ \ -114.6^0C - (-115.5^0C) = 1.99 \frac{^0C}{m} \times \frac{0.082 \ g}{Mr \times 0.00118 \ kg} \ }$

$\boxed{ \ 0.9 = \frac{1.99 \times 0.082}{Mr \times 0.00118} \ }$

$\boxed{ \ Mr = \frac{0.16318}{0.9 \times 0.00118} \ }$

We get $\boxed{ \ Mr = 153.65 \ }$

These results are very close to the molar mass of norfenefrine which is 153.18 g/mol. Thus the white powder is norfenefrine.

Answer:

The first energy level is closest to the nucleus. The second energy level is a little farther away than the first. ... The electrons in the energy level farthest from the nucleus are called valence electrons. Atoms in the same column (group) in the periodic table have the same number of valence electrons.
