Why chlorine is more reactive than hydrogen​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lynna [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

<em>Hi Todoroki here!!! </em>

Explanation:

Chlorine has the electron configuration [Ne]3s 2 3p 5, with the seven electrons in the third and outermost shell acting as its valence electrons. Like all halogens, it is thus one electron short of a full octet, and is hence a strong oxidising agent, reacting with many elements in order to complete its outer shell.

<em>Your welcome!!</em>

Why are metals malleable,ductile,and good conductors
9966 [12]
The energy is transferred throughout the rest of the metal by the moving electrons. Metals are described as
malleable (can be beaten into sheets) and ductile (can be pulled out into wires). This is because of the ability of the atoms to roll over each other into new positions without breaking the metallic bond.

Burning one gallon of gasoline releases 20 pounds of CO2 into the air. Harry’s compact car can travel 25 miles on one gallon of
son4ous [18]
There are several information's already given in the question. Based on those information's, the answer can be easily deduced.
Amount of gasoline required by Harry's car to travel 25 miles = 1 gallon
Then
amount of gasoline required
by Harry's car to travel 15000 miles = 15000/25
                                                         = 600 gallons
So 
Amount of CO2 released by burning 1 gallon of gasoline = 20 pounds
Then
Amount of CO2 released
by burning 600 gallon of gasoline = 600 * 20
                                                      = 12000 pounds
From the above deduction, it can be concluded that the amount of CO2 that will be added by Harry's car to the atmosphere is 12000 pounds.

16.4 mL of 0.135 M NaOH is used to neutralize 46.9 mL of HCl. The concentration of the HCl solution is ____ M (3 decimal places)
marshall27 [118]

The concentration of the HCl solution is 0.047 M.

Explanation:

Data given about acid and base:

volume of acid Vacid = 46.9 ml

molarity of acid =?

volume of the base (NaOH) = 16.4 ml

molarity of the base = 0.135 M

To know the concentration of the acid in this reaction, the formula used in titration  is used. It is

Macid X Vacid = Mbase X Vbase

the formula is rewritten as:

Macid = \frac{Mbase X Vbase}{Vacid}

putting the values in the equation:

Macid = \frac{0.135 X 16.4}{46.9}

          = 0.047 M

the concentration of the acid i.e HCl in the solution is of 0.047 M.

How many moles are 5.55 x 102 atoms of Mg?<br> M2) an&gt; NU X 02.0
cupoosta [38]

Explanation:

number of atoms = moles × avegadro number

so 5.55 × 10^2 = moles × 6.023 × 10^23

moles = 5.55 × 10^2 ÷ 6.023 × 10^23 = 9.214×10−22 moles
