ClF₃

The octet rule states that the element will try to attain 8 electrons in its outer-most shell. Following this, chlorine should share only electron but is sharing 3.

The answer is ClF3. This molecule is a good illustration of VSEPR (valence shell electron pair repulsion) theory with Cl as the central atom with 7 valence electrons and each F atom contributing 1 electron. This forms an "expanded octet" of 10 electrons (5 electron pairs).

you have a lead ball with a mass of 420 g. the density of lead is 10.5 g/cm³. what is the volume of the ball
IrinaK [193]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>40.0 mL</h2>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density}

From the question

mass = 420 g

density = 10.5 g/cm³

The volume is

volume =  \frac{420}{10.5}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>40.0 mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

Volatility and vapor pressure are ________. Volatility and vapor pressure are ________. not related directly proportional to one
alina1380 [7]

Answer:

directly proportional to one another

Explanation:

Volatility refers to how quickly a substance changes from liquid to gas.

If a substance has a high vapour pressure, the substance is highly volatile. Similarly, if a substance has a low vapour pressure, then the substance is much less volatile.

This implies that volatility and vapour pressure gives a direct proportionality.

Of the groups given, which are the least chemically reactive?
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Group 8A

Explanation:

This is because the elements in Group 8A is stable, what I mean is this elements have the maximum number of electrons in there last orbit so they dont need to form any compund with any other element in the periodic table.

while doing a lab, a student found the density of a piece of pure aluminum to be 2.85 g/cm^3. the accepted value for the density
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Percent error = 5.6%

Explanation:

Given data:

Measured value of density by students = 2.85 g/cm³

Accepted density of aluminium = 2.70 g/cm³

Percent error = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Percent error = [ Measured value - accepted value / accepted value ]× 100

Now we will put the values in formula:

Percent error = [ 2.85 g/cm³  - 2.70 g/cm³ / 2.70 g/cm³ ]× 100

Percent error = [0.15/2.70 g/cm³ ] × 100

Percent error = 0.056× 100

Percent error = 5.6%
