Leading up to this, calcium gave up 2 valence electrons and thus was denoted as a cation. These 2 electrons were transferred to bromine, which received an overall negative charge because of the addition of 2 valence electrons in its valence shell, and thus formed a negatively charged ion, an anion.

Both formed an ionic bond, due to the electrostatic charge of attraction between the 2 oppositely charged ions. If many ions of Ca and Br are present and numerous ionic bonds have formed it will undergo an arrangement which is that of an ionic lattice, type of structure.

When energy is transferred from the air to the water, what happens to most of the energy? A. It travels through the water. B. It
BigorU [14]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When energy is transferred from the air to the water then energy is absorbed by the water molecules.

This energy travels through one molecule of water to another molecule of water by the process of convection.

Thus, we can conclude that when energy is transferred from the air to the water, then it travels through the water.

A student placed 3.0 grams of Mg into some HCl in two different experiments. In each case, it reacted according to the following
lana [24]

Answer: -

A catalyst is a substance that speeds up the chemical reaction. In the first experiment it took 32 minutes for all the magnesium to react.

In the next it took 54 minutes for all the magnesium to react. So the reaction was slower the second time.

Thus a catalyst was not used.

Powdering up the Magnesium would mean increasing the surface area. More the surface area faster the reaction. Since the reaction is slowing down,

Magnesium was not powdered

If the temperature was decreased then kinetic energy would decrease of the reactant molecules and the reaction would slow down due to less number of collisions between reactant moleules.

So the temperature was decreased is a correct option.

A chemist obtains a 0.300 M solution of HCI and adds 10.0 mL of the HCI to CaCO3 how many moles of HCI did she add?
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

Number of moles = 0.003 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Molarity of HCl = 0.300 M

Volume = 10.0 mL (0.01 L)

Number of moles of HCl added = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in litter

Number of moles = Molarity ×  volume in litter

Number of moles =  0.300 mol/L × 0.01 L

Number of moles = 0.003 mol
