Answer:
CaCl2 (aq) + K2CO3(aq) ---------> CaCO3(s) + 2KCl(aq)
Explanation:
We have the reactants as calcium chloride and potassium carbonate. Recall that we are expecting that the reaction will yield a precipitate. We must keep that in mind as we seek to write its balanced chemical reaction equation.
So we now have;
CaCl2 (aq) + K2CO3(aq) ---------> CaCO3(s) + 2KCl(aq)
Recall that the rule of balancing chemical reaction equation states that the number of atoms of each element on the right side of the reaction equation must be the same as the number of atoms of the same element on the left hand side of the reaction equation.
Answer:
A heatwave occurs when a system of high atmospheric pressure moves into an area and lasts two or more days.
Explanation:
In such a high-pressure system, air from upper levels of our atmosphere is pulled toward the ground, where it becomes compressed and increases in temperature.
The options
Select one:
a. a 3- ion forms.
b. the noble gas configuration of argon is achieved.
c. the result is a configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6.
d. the atom gains five electrons.
Answer:
c. the result is a configuration of 1s2 2s2 2p6.
Explanation:
Aluminium atom has atomic number of 13 , hence the number of electron is 13 for a neutral atom of aluminium. When aluminium atom reacts with other elements it usually gives out three electron to attain the octet configuration.
The cation representation of aluminium is Al3+ because it has loss three electron to attain the octet rule. Aluminium will be left with 10 electrons after losing 3 of it electrons. The electronic configuration will be represented as follows after losing three electrons;
1S² 2S² 2P∧6 .
At this stage the octet rule has been achieved as it will be represented as
2 8. The first energy shell now contains two electron and the second energy shell contains 8 electrons.
The configuration of Neon has been formed in the process.
Elements in the third row can break the octet rule
The correct option is this: THE CONCENTRATION OF THE PRODUCTS AND THE REACTANTS DO NOT CHANGE.
A reversible chemical reaction is said to be in equilibrium if the rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction. At this stage, the concentrations of the products and the reactants remain constant, that is, there is no net change in the concentration even though the reacting species are moving between the forward and the backward reaction.
