In order to get HgO you would need 2Hg+1O2=2HgO. Since oxygen is diatomic you need two when it stands alone causing you to need two mercuries to balance out the reactants and the product I hope this helps
Answer:
The charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a complete octet of valence shell electrons
Explanation:
A charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a valence shell that is not filled, <u>that's why it acts as an electrophile (or a Lewis base)</u>. This unfilled valence shell is also the reason of the nucleophilic attack that takes place during the second step of a SN1 reaction.
Answer:
<em>K</em><em>+</em><em>Cl</em><em /><em>KCl</em>
Explanation:
because the reaction is between metal Potassium and Non-metal Chlorine

Answer: b) 0.250 mol</h3>
============================================
Work Shown:
Using the periodic table, we see that
- 1 mole of carbon = 12 grams
- 1 mole of oxygen = 16 grams
These are approximations and these values are often found underneath the atomic symbol. For example, the atomic weight listed under carbon is roughly 12.011 grams. I'm rounding to 2 sig figs in those numbers listed above.
So 1 mole of CO2 is approximately 12+2*16 = 44 grams. The 2 is there since we have 2 oxygens attached to the carbon atom.
-------------------
Since 1 mole of CO2 is 44 grams, we can use that to convert from grams to moles.
11.0 grams of CO2 = (11.0 grams)*(1 mol/44 g) = (11.0/44) mol = 0.250 mol of CO2
In short,
11.0 grams of CO2 = 0.250 mol of CO2
This is approximate.
We don't need to use any of the information in the table.
The arrow doesn’t “point” to anything really, it means that the reactants form (or change) into the products.
