the formula  of the compound that  is formed  between  chlorine and calcium  is CaCl2


explanation

chlorine (non  metal)  react  with Calcium ( a metal)  to  form an ionic compound  CaCl2

Ionic compound   is formed when metal  loses electrons to form cation ( a  positively charged ion)  while  non metal  gains electrons  to  form anion (  a  negatively  charged ion)

An ionic compound is formed when calcium   metal(Ca) loses two electron to form   Ca2+ cation ,  while   2 chlorine atom  gain  one electron each to form cl- anions.


  • when writing  down  the formula  of ionic compound  cation  symbol  is written first  followed by  anion symbol.

Therefore the formula  of ionic compound formed between chlorine  and calcium is CaCl2

The number of grams of H2 in 1470 mL of H2 gas. ​
Lorico [155]

Answer:

0.1313 g.

Explanation:

  • It is known that at STP, 1.0 mole of ideal gas occupies 22.4 L.
  • Suppose that hydrogen behaves ideally and at STP conditions.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

1.0 mol of hydrogen occupies → 22.4 L.

??? mol of hydrogen occupies → 1.47 L.

∴ The no. of moles of hydrogen that occupies 1.47 L = (1.0 mol)(1.47 L)/(22.4 L) = 6.563 x 10⁻² mol.

  • Now, we can get the no. of grams of hydrogen in 6.563 x 10⁻² mol:

<em>The no. of grams of hydrogen = no. of hydrogen moles x molar mass of hydrogen</em> = (6.563 x 10⁻² mol)(2.0 g/mol) = <em>0.1313 g.</em>
