Answer:

The formula of the original halide is SrCl₂.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation of this reaction is:

SrX₂ + H₂SO₄ → SrSO₄ + 2 HX, where X is the halide.

  • From the equation stichiometry, 1.0 mole of strontium halide will result in 1.0 mole of SrSO₄.
  • The number of moles of SrSO₄ <em>(n = mass/molar mass) </em>= (0.755 g) / (183.68 g/mole) = 4.11 x 10⁻³ mole.
  • The number of moles of SrX are  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles from the stichiometry of the balanced equation.
  • n = mass / molar mass, n =  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles and mass = 0.652 g.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ = mass / n = (0.652) / (4.11 x 10⁻³ moles) = 158.62 g/mole.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ (158.62 g/mole) = Atomic mass of Sr (87.62 g/mole) + (2 x Atomic mass of halide X).
  • The atomic mass of halide X = (158.62 g/mole) - (87.62 g/mole) / 2 = 71 / 2  g/mole = 35.5 g/mole.
  • This is the atomic mass of Cl.
  • <em>So, the formula of the original halide is SrCl₂</em>.

What is the electron configuration for<br> 08<br> 16
Elis [28]

The electron configuration for Oxygen : [He] 2s²2p⁴

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Writing electron configurations starts from the lowest to the highest sub-shell energy level. There are 4 sub-shells in the shell of an atom, namely s, p, d, and f. The maximum number of electrons for each sub-shell is  

• s: 2 electrons  

• p: 6 electrons  

• d: 10 electrons and  

• f: 14 electrons  

Charging electrons in the sub-shell uses the following sequence:  

<em>1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶, 5s², 4d¹⁰, 5p⁶, 6s², etc.  </em>

The element is Oxgen, with symbol O, and :

the atomic number=8=number of electron

the atomic mass=16

The electron configuration based on the number of electrons(for Oxygen=8), so the configuration :

\tt _8^{16}O:1s^22s^22p^4 or we can write with noble gas [He] 2s²2p⁴

How many moles of water are produced when 5 moles of hydrogen gas react with 2 moles of oxygen gas?
Marysya12 [62]

4 moles of water are produced

Explanation:

  • 4 moles of water are produced when 5 moles of hydrogen is reacted with 2 moles of oxygen gas
  • The balanced equation given is when 2 moles of hydrogen reacts with 1 mole of oxygen and it forms 2 moles of water.
  • The equation we have to solve is the 5 moles of hydrogen is reacting with 2 moles of oxygen gas, we can write the equation as 5H_{2} +2O_{2} -->  4H_{2} O + H_{2}
  • This is the balanced equation when 5 moles of hydrogen reacts with 2 moles of oxygen. The balanced equation means the number of hydrogen atoms and oxygen atoms on both sides would be equal in number.

How did the Bohr model of the atom affect scientific thought?
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

C. Scientists accepted the model at first but later rejected it.  

Explanation:

Scientists accepted the model at first because it explained the hydrogen emission spectrum.

However, with the development of quantum mechanics, scientists had to modify the model (not reject it).

Electrons still had specific energies, but they no longer travelled in fixed orbits.

Instead, electrons had a probability of being found in a given region of space.
