(B) sulfur and phosphorus!!!
Neporo4naja [7]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

Some of the  elements of the third-period and periods below can have expanded octet because they have d- sub-level.

We have 2 possible answers. A and B. Because  lodine and chlorine. Sulfur and phosphorous are  in the 3d or lower periods.

In the compound P2S5, where P forms 5 bonds.

Iodine and chlorine do not have enough difference in electronegativity to form compound ICl7.

So, the answer is B.

The standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always:_________
sattari [20]

Answer: The standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always positive.

Explanation:

Electrolytic cells use electric currents to drive a non-spontaneous reaction forward.

Relation of standard free energy change and emf of cell

\Delta G^o=-nFE^0_{cell}

where,

\Delta G^o = standard free energy change

  n= no of electrons gained or lost

F= faraday's constant

E^0_{cell} = standard emf

E^0_{cell}   = standard emf = -ve  , for non spontaneous reaction

Thus  \Delta G^o=(-ve)(-ve)=+ve

Thus standard free energy change for a reaction in an electrolytic cell is always positive.

2.<br> Why does<br> a chemical equation<br> need to<br> be balanced?
arlik [135]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>Chemical equations must be balanced to satisfy the law of conservation of matter, that states that matter cannot be produced or destroyed in a closed system. The law of conservation of mass governs the balancing of a chemical equation.</em>

Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The molecular equation shows all the compounds involved in the reaction.

The molecular equation is as follows;

2NaF(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) -------> PbF2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

The complete ionic equation shows all the ions involved in the reaction

The complete ionic equation;

2Na^+(aq) + 2F^-(aq) + Pb^2+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq) -------->PbF(s) + 2Na^+(aq) +2NO3^-(aq)

The net Ionic equation shows the ions that actually participated in the reaction

The net ionic equation is;

2F^-(aq) + Pb^2+(aq)--------> PbF(s)
