I need help with these 2 questions below:

Allena and Charissa were discussing whether Cl2 is an element or a compound. Allena said that it is an element because it has on

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer is: Allena is correct. It is an element because it is only made of chlorine atoms.
A chemical element bonded to an identical chemical element is not a chemical compound since it is made from only one element and not from two different elements. Chlorine is molecule, but not compound.

Describe the observation Robert Brown made.

12345 [234]

Answer:

In 1827, Brown observed, using a microscope, that small particles ejected from pollen grains suspended in water executed a kind of continuous and jittery movement, this was named “Brownian motion”. ... This random movement of particles suspended in a fluid is now called after him.

The potential energy diagram shows the gain and loss of potential energy as water molecules decompose into hydrogen and oxygen.

Dovator [93]

Answer:

The diagram with the five labels of the parts is in the image attached. Please, see the image.

Explanation:

1) General explanation: a potential chemical energy diagram is used to show how the reactants gain energy until they reach the activation energy, form the activated complex, and release part of the energy to form the products.

The difference between the chemical potential energy of the products and the reactants is the enthalpy of the reaction:

ΔH rxn = ΔH products - ΔH reactants.

The labels that correspond to each part of the diagram are explained next.

2) Reactants:

This is the substances at the start, so they appear on the left bottom side of the diagram.

3) Activation energy:

It is the energy that the reactants must reach (the highest point) in order to the reaction occurs.

4) Activated complex:

This is the intermediate state and of highest energy. The reactants have formed a complex at mid way between the reactants and the products.

5) Products:

These are the substances formed when the reaction is completed. They are lower in energy than the activated complex. They can be either higher or lower in energy than the reactants. The products are shown to the right of the diagram.

6) Enthalpy of the reaction:

The enthalpy of the reaction is the difference in energy of the products and the reactants. In this case, since, the products are higher in energy, it means that the reaction absorbed energy and it is an endothermic reaction.

Nitrogen ion (Nitride) is ... Cation/Anion/Neither? # of protons? # of electrons? Charge (1-, 2-, 3-, 1+, 2+, 3+, or 0) Number o

OLga [1]

Answer:

3- is the charge and 8 dots on its Lewis dot structure.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since nitrogen is an element with five valence electrons (electrons on its outer shell), we infer that it needs three bonds to complete the octet, for which its charge, when forming nitride ions is 3-, which means it has received three electrons. Thus, when drawing the Lewis dot structure, it is evident that is will have 5+3 = 8 dots due to the electron reception.

Regards!
