7 valance electrons the Lewis structure for a chlorine atom show.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Lewis structure is used to keep track of the valance electrons of each atom and share them in bonding. Every valance electron is represented as a dot around the element to keep their count.  

Paired VE’s are shown as ‘:’ and unpaired as ‘.’ in the representation. A chlorine Cl atom has 17 electrons. & of them are valance electrons. Out of the seven six are paired electrons and one is unpaired.

Answer: D

Explanation:

Chlorine is in group 7 or (VII) in Roman numerals, which means it has 7 balance electrons. It only needs one electron to become stable, hence it is next to the noble gases

A sample of the chiral molecule limonene is 62% enantiopure. what percentage of each enantiomer is present? what is the percent
ikadub [295]

The mixture contains 62 % one isomer and 38 % the enantiomer.

Let’s say that the mixture contains 62 % of the (<em>R</em>)-isomer.

Then % (<em>S</em>) = 100 % -62 % = 38 %

ee = %  (<em>R</em>) - % (<em>S</em>) = 62 % -38 % = 24 %

_Na+ Cl2 - -&gt; _NaCl<br><br> A 2,4<br> B 1,2<br> C 3,3<br> D 2,2
Natali [406]

Answer:

D 2,2

Explanation:

We can see that there are 2 chlorines on the reactant side so there has to be a 2 on the product side

Now we have Na + Cl2 --> 2NaCl

The problem now is that there are 2 sodiums on the product side so add a 2 to the Na on the reactant side

2Na + Cl2 --> 2NaCl

Now it's balanced!
