Answer:

Option A. 1:1

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Li => 1s² 2s¹

Cl => 1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²2p⁵

Lithium (Li) will form compound with Cl by losing 1 electron as shown below:

Li —> Li⁺ + e¯ ..... (1)

Cl on the other hand will accept 1 electron from Li to form the chloride ion, Cl¯ as shown below:

Cl + e¯ —> Cl¯ ...... (2)

Combining equation 1 and 2, we have:

Li + Cl + e¯ —> Li⁺ + Cl¯ +

Cancel e¯ from both side

Li + Cl —> Li⁺Cl¯

Thus, the ratio of metallic cation (+) to non-metallic anion (-) in the compound is 1:1

Given that <span>sample a has a higher melting point than sample
b. Therefore, sample a is a longer chain of a </span><span>fatlike solid substance. It could also be that the bonds present in sample a is much stronger which will require more energy to break. Hope this answers the question.</span>

Consider separate samples of water and carbon dioxide, each with the same mass. Which contains the greater number of molecules?
Ahat [919]

Answer: The sample that contains the greater number of molecules is water.

Explanation: To calculate the number of molecules, it is used the Avogadro's number ( 6.02*10^{23} particles/molecules). So, considering that the mass to water and carbon dioxide is 1g (it can be any other number), the relationship between moles and molar weight is:

moles =\frac{mass}{molar weight}

To water: moles = \frac{1g}{18 g/mol} = 0.05 moles.

Therefore,

1 mol ---- 6.02*10^{23} molecules

0.05 moles ---- x

x = 0.30*10^{23} molecules of water.

To carbon dioxide: moles = \frac{1g}{44 g/mol} = 0.02 moles.

Therefore,

1 mol ---- 6.02*10^{23} molecules

0.02 moles ---- y

y = 0.12*10^{23} molecules of carbon dioxide.
