Answer:

atoms are electrically neutral because they have equal numbers of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). if an atom gains or loses one or more electrons, it becomes an ion.

hope this helps

It can be a compound or a single element. An element is a pure substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances by chemical or physical means. There are about 117 elements, but carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen are only a few that make up the largest portion of Earth.

A piece of wood near a fire is at 23°C. It gains 1,160 joules of heat from the fire and reaches a temperature of 42°C. The speci
Molodets [167]

Answer:

35.578g or 36g if you round

Explanation:

Q=mc ∆∅ where ∅ is temperature difference

1160= m x 1.716 x (42-23)

m = 1160/ 1.716 x19

m=35.578g

m = 36g to nearest whole number

Based on the equation, how many grams of Br2 are required to react completely with 36.2 grams of AlCl3?
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

65.08 g.

Explanation:

  • For the reaction, the balanced equation is:

<em>2AlCl₃ + 3Br₂ → 2AlBr₃ + 3Cl₂,</em>

2.0 mole of AlCl₃ reacts with 3.0 mole of Br₂ to produce 2.0 mole of AlBr₃ and 3.0 mole of Cl₂.

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 36.2 grams of AlCl₃:

<em>n = mass/molar mass</em> = (36.2 g)/(133.34 g/mol) = <em>0.2715 mol.</em>

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

2.0 mole of AlCl₃ reacts with → 3.0 mole of Br₂, from the stichiometry.

0.2715 mol of AlCl₃ reacts with → ??? mole of Br₂.

∴ The no. of moles of Br₂ reacts completely with 0.2715 mol (36.2 g) of AlCl₃  = (0.2715 mol)(3.0 mole)/(2.0 mole) = 0.4072 mol.

<em>∴ The mass of Br₂ reacts completely with 0.2715 mol (36.2 g) of AlCl₃ = no. of moles of Br₂ x molar mass</em> = (0.4072 mol)(159.808 g/mol ) = <em>65.08 g.</em>

When you are converting grams to moles , are you multiplying or dividing ?
Effectus [21]
When you are converting grams to moles, the operation that you will be doing is dividing by the molar mass to obtain the amount of moles of the given sample.
