Answer:

The compound represents that calcium chloride is an ionic salt made up of 1 calcium ion and 2 chloride ions.

Explanation:

The given chemical formula CaCl_2 is of calcium chloride salt.

The chemical formula represents that 1 atom calcium binds with two atoms of chlorine to form a single molecule of calcium chloride.

It is an ionic salt made up 1 calcium ion and 2 chloride ions.

Calcium has atomic number of 20 and chlorine has atomic number of 17. Calcium will loose 2 electrons to gain noble gas stability whereas chlorine atom will gain 1 electron to gain noble gas stability.

[Ca]=[Ar]4s^2

[Ca^{2+}]=1s^22s^2p^63s^23p^6

[Cl]=1s^22s^2p^63s^23p^5

[Cl^{-}]=1s^22s^2p^63s^23p^6

Ca^{2+}+2Cl^-\rightarrow CaCl_2

The list of options to answer this question is:

A.kinectic energy is transformed into thermal energy.

B.electrical energy is transformed into potential energy.

C.potential energy is transformed into kinectic energy.

D.mechanical energy is transformed into chemical energy.

The answer is the option A. A.kinectic energy is transformed into thermal energy.

As you know energy cannot be lost but transformed.

When friction force acts over the tyres it increases the speed of the particles in the tyres which is thermal energy, this thermal energy increase comes from kinetic energy loss.

Question 9. The first one is the smallest. Anything with a negative exponent is going to be less than 1, the .00000241. The exponent tells you the number of zeroes to the right of the decimal point. Farther to right gets smaller and smaller.

Question 10. The last one is true. If the last digit is smaller than 5, drop the digit, and do not change. (If it is a 5 or larger, the digit before it would round up)

How many ml of a 2.0 m nabr solution are needed to make 200.0 ml of 0.50 m nabr?
gogolik [260]

To solve this we use the equation,

 

<span> M1V1 = M2V2</span>

 

<span> where M1 is the concentration of the stock solution, V1 is the volume of the stock solution, M2 is the concentration of the new solution and V2 is its volume.</span>

 

<span>2.0 M x V1 = 0.50 M x 200 mL</span>

<span>V1 = 50 mL needed</span>
