The reactions produces an enormous amount of energy per unit mass compared to nuclear fission. Hope this helped
An ionic compound is composed of ionic bonds that are formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons acquires a positive charge (cation) while that which gains electrons acquires a negative charge.
In the case of sodium chloride; Sodium Na has 1 electron in its outer orbital while Chlorine Cl has 7 electrons. Thus, Cl requires 1 electron to complete its octet. This electron is donated by Na.
Thus, NaCl is essentially, Na⁺Cl⁻
Ans D) Chlorine becomes an anion by gaining an electron from sodium
Answer: -
6
Explanation: -
The given unbalanced chemical equation is As + NaOH -- > Na3AsO3 + H2
We see there 3 sodium on the right side from Na3AsO3.
But there are only 1 sodium on the left from NaOH.
So we multiply NaOH by 3.
As + 3 NaOH -- > Na3AsO3 + H2
Now we see the number of Hydrogen on the left is 3.
But the number of hydrogens is 2 on the left.
So, we multiply to get both sides 6 hydrogen.
As + 6NaOH -- > Na3AsO3 + 3 H2
Rebalancing for Na,
As + 6NaOH -- > 2Na3AsO3 + 3 H2.
Finally balancing As,
2 As + 6 NaOH -- > 2Na3AsO3 + 3H2
The coefficient of the NaOH molecule in the balanced reaction is thus 6
