Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that metals are the species which readily lose an electron and tend to attain a positive charge.

For example, atomic number of sodium is 11 and its is an alkali metal. It electronic distribution is 2, 8, 1.

And, in order to attain stability it readily loses an electron and thus it become $Na^{+}$ ion.

Also, it is known that species which tend to transfer or donate their valence electrons to other atoms tend to form ionic bond and the compound formed is known as ionic compound.

Therefore, we can conclude that the statement metal atoms held together by ionic bonds best describes a metal solid.

7. Disulfur dichloride can be made by reacting chlorine gas with molten sulfur. What is the yield of S2Cl2 expected in a laborat

Pie

Answer:

11.4g of S₂Cl₂ is the expected yield

9.69g of S₂Cl₂ are produced with a 85% yield

Explanation:

The reaction of sulfur S₈ with Cl₂ to produce S₂Cl₂ is:

S₈ + 4Cl₂ → 4S₂Cl₂

<em>Where 1 mole of sulfur reacts with four moles of chlorine to produce four moles of disulfur dichloride.</em>

To find the limiting reactant you need to convert mass of each reactant to moles using its molar mass, thus:

S₈ (Molar mass: 256.52g/mol): 10.0g ₓ (1mol / 256.52g) = 0.0390 moles S₈

Cl₂ (Molar mass: 70.9g/mol): 6.00g ₓ (1mol / 70.9g) = 0.0846 moles Cl₂

For a complete reaction of 0.0390 moles of sulfur, there are necessaries:

0.0390 mol S₈ ₓ (4 mol Cl₂ / 1 mol S₈) = <em>0.156 moles Cl₂. </em>As you have just 0.0846 moles of chlorine, Cl₂ is the limiting reactant.

As 4 moles of Cl₂ produce 4 moles of S₂Cl₂.<em> 0.0846 moles of Cl₂ produce, in theory, 0.0846 moles of S₂Cl₂ (Molar mass: 135.04g/mol). </em>In mass:

0.0846 moles S₂Cl₂ ₓ (135.04g/mol) =

<h3>11.4g of S₂Cl₂ is the expected yield</h3>

If you produce just the 85.0% of yield, mass of S₂Cl₂ is:

11.4g ₓ 85% =

Identify the Bronsted-Lowry acid, the Bronsted-Lowry base, the conjugate acid and the conjugate base for each of the following r

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

Acids → H₂CO₃ from equilibrium 1 and water, from equilibrium 2.

Bases → Water from equilibrium 1 and ammonia from equilibrium 2.

In 1st equilibrium, H₃O⁺ is the conjugate acid and HCO₃⁻ the conjugate base.

In 2nd equilibrium, NH₄⁺ is the conjugate acid, and OH⁻, the conjugate base.

Explanation:

By the Bronsted-Lowry you know that acids are the one that release protons and base are the ones that catch them.

For the first equilibrium:

H₂CO₃(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ H₃O⁺(aq) + HCO₃⁻(aq)

Carbonic acid is the acid → It donates the proton to water, so the water becomes the base. As H₂CO₃ is the acid, the bicarbonate is the conjugate base (it can accept the proton from water to become carbonic acid, again) and the hydronium is the conjugate acid (it would release the proton to become water).

For the second equilibrium:

NH₃(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ NH₄⁺ (aq) + OH⁻(aq)

This is the opposite situation → Water relase the proton to ammonia, that's why water is the acid and NH₃, the base (it accepted to become ammonium). The NH₄⁺ is the conjugate acid (it can release the H⁺ to become ammonia) and the OH⁻ is the conjugate base (It can accept the proton to become water, again).
