Nitella [24]

<h2>The compound formed is NaCl and $CaCl_{2}$ </h2>

Explanation:

PART 1:

Atomic number of sodium is 11.
Sodium(Na, Z = 11, Group 1A) will lose 1 electron to become $Na^{1+}$ which is isoelectronic to Neon (Ne ,Z = 10).
The symbol for the sodium ion is $Na^{+}$ .
Chlorine atom ( $Cl$ , Z = 17, Group 7A or 17) gains 1 elecron to be isoelectronic to neon.
The symbol for the compound formed is NaCl.
PART 2:
Atomic number of calcium is 20
Calcium(Ca, Z = 20 ,Group 2A) will lose two electrons to become $Ca^{2+}$ which is isoelectronic to argon.
The symbol for the ion is $Ca^{2+}.$
Two chlorine atoms (Cl, Z = 17, Group 7A or 17) each gains one electron to be isoelectronic to argon(Z = 18)
The symbol for the compound formed is $CaCl_{2}$ .

Chlorine pentafluoride gas is collected at -17.0 °C in an evacuated flask with measured volume of 35.0 L. When all the gas has b

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

1. The mass of Chlorine pentafluoride, ClF5, is 39.16g

2. The number of mole of Chlorine pentafluoride, ClF5, is 0.3mole

Explanation:

1. To solve the mass of Chlorine pentafluoride, ClF5, first, let us calculate the molar mass of ClF5. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of ClF5 = 35.5 + (5 x 19) = 35.5 + 95 = 130.5g/mol

From the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT (1)

Recall:

Number of mole(n) = mass (m) /Molar Mass(M)

n = m/M

Now substituting the value of n in equation 1, we have:

PV = nRT

PV = mRT/M

Now we can obtain the mass of Chlorine pentafluoride ClF5 as follow:

Data obtained from the question include:

T (temperature) = -17.0 °C = - 17 + 273 = 256K

V (volume) = 35L

P (pressure) = 0.180 atm

R (gas constant) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol

m (mass of Chlorine pentafluoride) =?

M (molar mass of Chlorine pentafluoride) = 130.5g/mol

PV = mRT/M

0.180 x 35 = m x 0.082 x 256/ 130.5

Cross multiply to express in linear form as shown below:

m x 0.082 x 256 = 0.180x35x130.5

Divide both side by 0.082 x 256

m = (0.180x35x130.5) /(0.082x256)

m = 39.16g

Therefore, the mass of Chlorine pentafluoride, ClF5, is 39.16g

2. The number of mole of ClF5 can be obtained as follow:

Mass of ClF5 = 39.16g

Molar Mass of ClF5 = 130.5g/mol

Mole of ClF5 =?

Number of mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Mole of ClF5 = 39.16/130.5g

Mole of ClF5 = 0.3mole

What are some changes that can be caused by sound energy? by electromagnetic energy?

Pavel [41]

Hearing loss due to sound energy damaging the nerve cells in the inner ear. Many animals behavior is influenced by sound energy. They learn to associate events with sounds, so they run when something crunches in the dry grass (might be a coyote), but won't be bothered by the sound of a waterfall. Mood is affected by sound energy. A wine glass can break with sound energy, if the frequency matches the resonant frequency of the wine glass and the amplitude is great enough (one Mythbusters show featured a professional singer who broke a wine glass with his voice without any amplification).
