The answer would be 2+ since the atomic number represents how many protons are in the element. In this case, there are 16 protons, but only 14 electrons, which means there are an additional 2 protons, hence the 2+ charge on the ion.
Answer:
I2; I–I bond length = 266 pm
Explanation:
Bond length is inversely related to bond strength. The longer the bond length, the weaker the bond. The shorter the bond length the stronger the bond. A large bond distance implies that there is poor interaction between the atoms involved in the bond. A long bond distance or bond length may even indicate the absence of covalent interaction between the atoms involved.
Answer:
4.16g of MgCl2
Explanation:
First, let us generate a balanced equation for the reaction:
Mg + 2HCl —> MgCl2 + H2
Molar Mass of Mg = 24g/mol
Molar Mass of MgCl2 = 24 + (2x35.5) = 24 + 71 = 95g
From the equation,
24g of Mg produced 95g of MgCl2.
Therefore, 1.05g of Mg will produce = (1.05x95)/24 = 4.16g of MgCl2
In the modern periodic table, the elements are arranged according to their atomic number - not their relative atomic mass.
In the periodic table the elements are arranged into:
rows, called periods, in order of increasing atomic number
vertical columns, called groups, where the elements have similar properties
