Answer:

Explanation:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. It is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion. Both atoms are bonded together electrostatic attraction occur between anion and cations.

Sodium atom have one valance electron by losing this one valance electron sodium atom get the complete octet. Chlorine atom has seven valance electrons and needed to lose seven valance electrons or to get one electron and thus complete the octet. It is very easy for chlorine atom to get one electrons instead of losing all seven electron. Thus when it react with sodium it gain the valance electron of sodium and form ionic compound.

That's why only one atom of  sodium combine with one atom chlorine.

Which of the following statements most likely
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Forming a problem requires the scientist to  use creativity to imagine new solutions.

Explanation:

Albert Einstein remains a critically prominent figure who conducted remarkable, ground-breaking research that not only formed the foundations of modern physics but also strongly affected the scientific world. It is difficult to teach imagination but it can be harnessed and accepted. Nothing incites our imaginative impulses we love more than the prospect of immediate creative inspiration. And creativity hits its full potential when paired with the experience, insights, and skills people gained by questioning the real-life problems.

A trial of this decomposition experiment, using different quantities of reactants than those listed in the question above produc
Paul [167]

Answer : The volume of O_2(g) produced at standard conditions of temperature and pressure is 0.2422 L

Explanation :

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of O_2 gas = (740-22.4) torr = 717.6 torr

P_2 = final pressure of O_2 gas at STP= 760 torr

V_1 = initial volume of O_2 gas = 280 mL

V_2 = final volume of O_2 gas at STP = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of O_2 gas = 25^oC=273+25=298K

T_2 = final temperature of O_2 gas = 0^oC=273+0=273K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{717.6torr\times 280mL}{298K}=\frac{760torr\times V_2}{273K}

V_2=242.2mL=0.2422L

Therefore, the volume of O_2(g) produced at standard conditions of temperature and pressure is 0.2422 L

• 1) The pressure of a sample of gas in a 2.00-L container is 876 mmHg.
kifflom [539]

Answer:

4380 mmHg

Explanation:

Boyle's Law can be used to explain the relationship between pressure and volume of an ideal gas. The pressure is inversely related to volume, so if volume decrease the pressure will increase. It can be expressed in the equation as:

P1V1=P2V2

In this question, the first condition is 2L volume and 876 mmHg pressure. Then the system changed into the second condition where the volume is 400ml and the pressure is unknown. The pressure will be:

P1V1= P2V2

876 mmHg * 2L = P2 * 400ml /(1000ml/L)

P2= 876 mmHg * 2L / 0.4L

P2= 4380 mmHg
