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>

Answer: The entire water/ice solution is at the melting/freezing point, 32°F (0°C). Adding rock salt — or any substance that dissolves in water — disrupts this equilibrium.

Explanation: Hope this helps! Have a great day :)

Which of the following is most likely to form multiple (double or triple) bonds? 1. Li 2. Cl 3. N 4. H 5. F
alukav5142 [94]

Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number of lithium is 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1. So, to attain stability it will loose an electron and hence, it forms a single bond.

Atomic number of chlorine is 17 and it has 7 valence electrons. Hence, in order to attain stability it will gain one electron and therefore, it forms a single bond only.

Atomic number of nitrogen is 7 and its electronic distribution is 2, 5. Therefore, to attain stability it needs to gain 3 more electrons. Hence, a nitrogen atom is able to form a triple bond and also it is able to form a double bond.

Hydrogen has atomic number 1 and it attains stability by gaining one electron. Therefore, a hydrogen atoms always forms a single bond.

Atomic number of fluorine is 9 and its electronic distribution is 2, 7. To complete its octet it needs to gain one electron. Hence, a fluorine atom always forms a single bond.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options nitrogen is most likely to form multiple (double or triple) bonds.

Answer:

Double replacement

Precipitation reaction

Explanation:

You have the reaction:

         REACTANTS                          PRODUCTS

BaCl₂ (aq) + Na₂SO₄ (aq) ⇒ 2NaCl (aq) + BaSO₄(s)

The general form of a double replacement reaction is the following:

AB + CD ⇒ CD + AB

The reactants basically, exchanged partners. In the case of your problem, Barium(Ba) and Sodium(Na) switched places. So this makes it a double-replacement reaction.

Now how do I know it is a precipitation reaction. A precipitation reaction occurs when two solutions combine and salt is formed. Salt is solid, so how do I know that's what occured? Look at your equation again:

BaCl₂ (aq) + Na₂SO₄ (aq) ⇒ 2NaCl (aq) + BaSO₄(s)

aq means aqueous (liquid)

s means solid

If you look at the product formed in the reaction, from two solutions, it formed a solid. So this is your clue as to why it is a precipitation reaction.
