Answer:

No.

Explanation:

During chemical reaction, atomes cannot be created or destroyed, they can only react together to form <em>E</em><em>l</em><em>e</em><em>m</em><em>e</em><em>n</em><em>t</em><em> </em>or <em>C</em><em>o</em><em>m</em><em>p</em><em>o</em><em>u</em><em>n</em><em>d</em><em> </em>at the <em>P</em><em>r</em><em>o</em><em>d</em><em>u</em><em>c</em><em>t</em><em> </em>side.

Oliga [24]

Answer:

A chemical change because a temperature change occurred, the solid disappeared and a gas was produces

Explanation:

Magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid releasing energy, and leading to the formation of  magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. This is represented by the equation below:

Mg₍s₎ + 2HCl₍aq)⇒ MgCl₂₍aq₎ + H₂₍g₎

Convert from moles to particles 6.02x1023 particles 1 mole Question 2. 2.7 moles of lithium Question 3. 1.8 moles of sodium chlo
spayn [35]

Considering the definition of Avogadro's number:

  • the number of molecules of lithium is 1.62621×10²⁴ molecules.
  • the number of molecules of sodium chloride is 1.08414×10²⁴ molecules.

<h3>Definition of Avogadro's number</h3>

Avogadro's Number or Avogadro's Constant is called the number of particles that make up a substance (usually atoms or molecules) and that can be found in the amount of one mole of said substance. Its value is 6.023×10²³ particles per mole. Avogadro's number applies to any substance.

<h3>Amount of molecules in this case</h3>

You can apply the following rule of three, considering the Avogadro's number:  If 1 mole of lithium contains 6.023×10²³ molecules, 2.7 moles of lithium contains how many molecules?

amount of molecules of lithium= (6.023×10²³ molecules × 2.7 moles)÷1 mole

<u><em>amount of molecules of lithium=1.62621×10²⁴ molecules</em></u>

Finally, the number of molecules of lithium is 1.62621×10²⁴ molecules.

On the other hand you can apply the following rule of three, considering the Avogadro's number:  If 1 mole of sodium chloride​ contains 6.023×10²³ molecules, 1.8 moles of  sodium chloride​ contains how many molecules?

amount of molecules of sodium chloride= (6.023×10²³ molecules × 1.8 moles)÷1 mole

<u><em>amount of molecules of sodium chloride=1.08414 ×10²⁴ molecules</em></u>

Finally, the number of molecules of sodium chloride is 1.08414×10²⁴ molecules.

An ionic bond forms when atoms blank electrons
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

An ionic bond forms when atoms transfer electrons.

Explanation:

Ionic bonds are formed when atoms transfer electrons. (In contrast, covalent bonds are formed when atoms share electrons.)

There's a distinction between the two: when two atoms react to form an ionic bond, one atom would completely lose one electron, while the other would completely gain that electron. The atom that loses the electron becomes a positively-charged ion called a cation, whereas the atom that gains the electron becomes a negatively-charged ion called an anion.

For example, consider the reaction between a sodium \rm Na atom and a chlorine \rm Cl atom: \rm Na + Cl \to NaCl.

When the sodium atom and the chlorine atom encounter, the sodium atom would lose one electron to form a positively-charged sodium ion, \rm Na^{+}. The chlorine atom would gain that electron to form a negatively-charged chlorine ion \rm Cl^{-}.

These two ions will readily attract each other because of the opposite electrostatic charges on them. This electrostatic attraction (between two ions of opposite charges) is an ionic bond.

Overall, it would appear as if the sodium \rm Na atom transferred an electron to the chlorine \rm Cl atom to form an ionic bond.

In contrast, when two atoms react to form a covalent bond, they share electrons without giving any away completely. Therefore, it is possible to break certain covalent bonds apart (using a beam of laser, for example) and obtain neutral atoms.

On the other hand, when an ionic bond was broken, the result would be two charged ions- not necessarily two neutral atoms. The electron transfer could not be reversed by simply breaking the bond.

For example, when table salt \rm NaCl is melted (at a very high temperature,) the ionic bond between the sodium ions and chloride ions would (mostly) be broken. However, doing so would only generate a mixture of \rm Na^{+} and \rm Cl^{-} ions- not sodium and chlorine atoms.
