Which property of chlorine explains why it is likely to form a compound with an alkali metal

Chemistry
1 answer:
Aleksandr [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

a. It will accept one electron to complete its outer shell.

Explanation:

Chlorine is in Group 17, so it has <em>seven valence electrons</em>, one short of a complete outer shell.

Thus, it will accept an electron from sodium to complete its outer shell.

Determine the balanced chemical equation for this reaction. C8H18(g)+O2(g)→CO2(g)+H2O(g)
ankoles [38]

Answer: balanced reaction equation

C8H18(g) + 25/2 O2(g) ---------> 8CO2(g) + 9H2O(l)

Explanation:

Part A- coefficients

1, 25/2,8,9

Part B

Oxygen is the limiting reactant

Part C

If 1 mole of octane produced 9 moles of water from the balanced reaction equation

0.28 moles of octane will produce 0.28×9= 2.52 moles of water

Part D

If 12.5 moles of oxygen reacts with 1 mole of octane

0.63 moles of oxygen will react with 0.63/12.5=0.0504moles of octane

Amount of octane left= 0.280-0.0504=0.2296 moles

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST
dedylja [7]

Answer:

In order to be able to solve this problem, you will need to know the value of water's specific heat, which is listed as

c=4.18Jg∘C

Now, let's assume that you don't know the equation that allows you to plug in your values and find how much heat would be needed to heat that much water by that many degrees Celsius.

Take a look at the specific heat of water. As you know, a substance's specific heat tells you how much heat is needed in order to increase the temperature of 1 g of that substance by 1∘C.

In water's case, you need to provide 4.18 J of heat per gram of water to increase its temperature by 1∘C.

What if you wanted to increase the temperature of 1 g of water by 2∘C ?

This will account for increasing the temperature of the first gram of the sample by n∘C, of the the second gramby n∘C, of the third gram by n∘C, and so on until you reach m grams of water.

And there you have it. The equation that describes all this will thus be

q=m⋅c⋅ΔT , where

q - heat absorbed

m - the mass of the sample

c - the specific heat of the substance

ΔT - the change in temperature, defined as final temperature minus initial temperature

In your case, you will have

q=100.0g⋅4.18Jg∘C⋅(50.0−25.0)∘C

q=10,450 J

What would a scientist’s next steps be if his/her data failed to support their hypothesis?
Paul [167]
To change only one variable which is very important than to test the experiment to match the hypothesis again, I think. It’s been a while since I was on that lesson‍♀️
