How many chlorine ions are required to bond with one aluminum ion and why??

antiseptic1488 [7]

3 Chlorine ions are required to bond with one aluminum ion.

In ionic bonds, metals atoms loses all its outermost shell electrons to form a cation. While, non metal atoms gains however many electrons in order to make its outermost electron shell be 8 (or 2 if there's only one shell).

Therefore, form the periodic table, we can see that aluminum has a atomic number of 13, which makes its electron arrangement be 2,8,3. So, in order to form a aluminum ion, an Al atom must lose 3 electrons. On the other hand, Chlorine has a atomic number of 17, which means it has the electron configuration of 2,8,7. It has to gain only 1 electron to have 8 outermost shell electron.

Thereofre, 3 Chlorine atom are required to gain all 3 electrons given out by just 1 aluminum ion.

A student estimated the volume of a liquid in a beaker as 200.0 mL. When she poured the liquid into a graduated cylinder she MEA

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 0.91 %</h3>

Explanation:

The percentage error of a certain measurement can be found by using the formula

$P(\%) = \frac{error}{actual \: \: number} \times 100\% \\$

From the question

actual volume = 198.2 mL

error = 200 - 198.2 = 1.8

So we have

$P(\%) = \frac{1.8}{198.2} \times 100 \\ = 0.90817356205...$

We have the final answer as

What is an air mass? Where on Earth might you find a hot and dry air mass?

igor_vitrenko [27]

An air mass is a large volume of air in the atmosphere thats mostly uniform in temperature and moisture. Air masses can extend thousands of kilometers across the surface of the Earth, and can reach from ground level to the stratosphere/10 miles into the atmosphere. an air mass over northern Canada is a continental polar air mass and is cold and dry. One that forms over the Indian Ocean is called a maritime tropical air mass and is warm and humid.

<u>Answer:</u> The final temperature of the mixture is 49°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:

$\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}$
