Answer:

WCl₂, WCl₄, WCl₅, WCl₆

Explanation:

Molar Mass of Tungsten = 184 g/mol

Mass of Chlorine = 35.5 g/mol

In the first compound;

Percentage of tungsten = 72.17 %

Upon solving;

72.17 % = 184

100 % = Total mass

Total mass of compound = 254.95g

Mass of chlorine = 254.95 - 184 = 70.95 (Dividing by 35.35; This is approximately 2 Chlorine atoms.

The Formular is WCl₂

In the second compound;

Percentage of tungsten = 56.45 %

Upon solving;

56.45 % = 184

100 % = Total mass

Total mass of compound = 325.95 g

Mass of chlorine = 325.95 - 184 = 141.95g (Dividing by 35.35; This is approximately 4 Chlorine atoms.

The Formular is WCl₄

In the third compound;

Percentage of tungsten = 50.91 %

Upon solving;

50.91 % = 184

100 % = Total mass

Total mass of compound = 361.42 g

Mass of chlorine = 361.42 - 184 = 177.42 (Dividing by 35.35; This is approximately 5 Chlorine atoms.

The Formular is WCl₅

In the fourth compound;

Percentage of tungsten = 46.39 %

Upon solving;

46.39 % = 184

100 % = Total mass

Total mass of compound = 396.64 g

Mass of chlorine = 396.64 - 184 = 212.64 (Dividing by 35.35; This is approximately 6 Chlorine atoms.

The Formular is WCl₆

Where is the ion charge located in the isotope symbol

Juliette [100K]

The ion charge located in the isotope symbol on the top right corner. The number part of an isotope's name is the Mass Number (P + N). A negativelycharged ion (anion) will have more Electrons than Protons. Cl 1- has one more electron than proton; 18 electrons, 17 protons. That's why its charge is 1-.

Part 1. A chemist reacted 12.0 liters of F2 gas with NaCl in the laboratory to form Cl2 gas and NaF. Use the ideal gas law equat

galben [10]

The mass of NaCl needed for the reaction is 91.61 g

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of F₂ that reacted.

Volume (V) = 12 L

Temperature (T) = 280 K

Pressure (P) = 1.5 atm

Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol

Number of mole (n) =?

PV = nRT

1.5 × 12 = n × 0.0821 × 280

18 = n × 22.988

Divide both side by 22.988

n = 18 / 22.988

n = 0.783 mole

Next, we shall determine the mole of NaCl needed for the reaction.

F₂ + 2NaCl —> Cl₂ + 2NaF

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of F₂ reacted with 2 moles of NaCl.

Therefore,

0.783 mole F₂ will react with = 0.783 × 2 = 1.566 moles of NaCl.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 1.566 moles of NaCl.

Mole = 1.566 moles

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g/mol

Mass of NaCl =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of NaCl = 1.566 × 58.5

Mass of NaCl = 91.61 g

Therefore, the mass of NaCl needed for the reaction is 91.61 g

Draw the structural formula of the major product of the reaction of (S)-2,2,3-trimethyloxirane with MeOH, H . Use the wedge/hash

Katarina [22]

Answer:

(S)-3-methoxy-3-methylbutan-2-ol

Explanation:

In this case, we have an epoxide opening in acid medium. The first step then is the protonation of the oxygen. Then the epoxide is broken to generate the most stable carbocation. The nucleophile ( $CH_3OH$ ) will attack the carbocation generating a new bond. Finally, the oxygen is deprotonated to obtain an ether functional group and we will obtain the molecule (S)-3-methoxy-3-methylbutan-2-ol.

See figure 1
