Answer: option C. Copper (II) chloride

Explanation:

To name CuCl2, we need to know the oxidation state of Cu in the compound as chlorine always have oxidation on —1 in all its compound. The oxidation state of Cu can be calculated as follows:

Cu + 2Cl = 0 (since the compound has no charge)

Cl = —1

Cu + 2(—1) = 0

Cu —2 = 0

Collect like terms

Cu = 0 +2

Cu = +2

Therefore, the oxidation state of Cu in CuCl2 is +2.

The name of the compound will be copper(ii) chloride, since cupper has oxidation state +2 in the compound.

How many dimes could you trade for 360 pesos? $1 = 1500 pesos.
sveta [45]

Answer:

The correct option is (d).

Explanation:

It is given that,

1$ = 1500 pesos

We need to convert 360 pesos into dimes

We can convert 360 pesos to dollars as follows:

360\ \text{pesos}=\$\dfrac{1}{1500}\times 360\\\\=$0.24

360 pesos is equal to $0.24

Also, 1 dollar = 10 dimes

We can covert 0.24 dollar to dimes as follows :

0.24 dollar = 10 × 0.24 dimes

0.24 dollar = 2.4 dimes

or

360 pesos = 2.4 dimes

The reaction 2a + b --> c + d has an activation energy of 80.0 kj/mol. at 320°c, the rate constant k = 1.80 x 10-2 l mol-1 s-
Naddik [55]
To determine the k for the second condition, we use the Arrhenius equation which relates the rates of reaction at different temperatures. We do as follows:

ln k1/k2 = E / R (1/T2 - 1/T1) where E is the activation energy and R universal gas constant.

ln 1.80x10^-2 / k2 = 80000 / 8.314 ( 1/723.15 - 1/593.15)

k2 = 0.3325 L / mol-s
