Answer:

B. Ca(NO2)2

Explanation:

Ions (charged atoms) combine with one another to form stable ionic compounds. In this case, calicium ion (Ca2+) is said to react with NO2, which has a charge of -1 i.e. +1-1(2) = 1-2 = -1.

This means that calcium has a charge of +2 while nitrite ion has charge of -1, hence, when they combine, they exchange their charges, which become their subscript as follows:

Ca2+ + NO2- → Ca(NO2)2

Ca(NO2)2 is a stable ionic compound called calcium nitrite. Notice that it takes two atoms of NO2- to react with one atom of Ca2+.

An electron confined in a one-dimensional box is observed, at different times, to have energies of 12 eV, 27 eV, and 48 eV. What

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

$l=3.5*10^{-10}m$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

1st Energy $E_1=12eV=4(3eV)$

2nd Energy $E_2=27eV=9(3eV)$

3rd Energy $E_3=48eV=16(3eV)$

Generally the equation for Energy E for electron in one dimensional box at ground state $E_0$ is mathematically given by

$E_0=\frac{h}{8ml^2}$

Therefore Length a is mathematically given as

$l=\sqrt{\frac{h^2}{8mE_0} }$

$l=\sqrt{\frac{(6.625*10^{-34})^2}{8(9.1*19^{-31}{(3eV(1.6*10^{-19}))}}$

$l=3.5*10^{-10}m$

How many grams of copper (I) chloride can be produced from the reaction of 73.5 g of copper (I) oxide with hydrochloric acid acc

natulia [17]

The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows

Cu₂O + 2HCl ---> 2CuCl + H₂O

Molar ratio of Cu₂O to CuCl is 1:2

mass of Cu₂O reacted - 73.5 g

Number of moles of Cu₂O reacted - 73.5 g / 143 g/mol = 0.51 mol

According to the molar ratio,

when 1 mol of Cu₂O reacts then 2 mol of CuCl is formed

therefore when 0.51 mol of Cu₂O reacts then - 2 x 0.51 mol of CuCl is formed

number of CuCl moles formed - 1.02 mol

mass of CuCl formed - 1.02 mol x 99 g/mol = 101 g

mass of CuCl formed is 101 g

The atomic masses of any two elements contain the same number of

den301095 [7]

Answer:

They contain of atoms

Explanation:

That's because atomic weights or masses of each atom of each element are proportional to each other, the same number of atoms of each element will give masses that are also proportional to each other. If you start with 20 oxygen atoms, you will need 40 hydrogen atoms to make the water and you will get 20 molecules of water.
