The combustion method used to analyze for carbon and hydrogen can be adapted to give percentage N by collecting the nitrogen fro
12345 [234]

Answer:

The percentage of N in the compound is 0.5088

Explanation:

Mass of compound = 8.75 mg = 8.75×1000 = 8750 g

Mass of N2 = number of moles of N2 × MW of N2 = 1.59 × 28 = 44.52 g

% of N in the compound = (mass of N2/mass of compound) × 100 = (44.52/8750) × 100 = 5.088×10^-3 × 100 = 0.5088

Sodium metal (Na) reacts with chlorine gas ( Cl2 ) to produce solid sodium chloride (NaCl).
Fynjy0 [20]

The unbalanced equations are the equations with different atomic numbers on the sides of the reaction. The unbalanced reaction is Na + Cl₂ → NaCl

<h3>What are balanced equations?</h3>

Balanced equations are the chemical reaction representation that has an equal number of the atomic number of the same species on the left and the right side of the reaction.

An unbalanced equation between sodium metal and chloride can be shown as:

Na + Cl₂ → NaCl

The equation is unbalanced as the number of chloride ions is more on the reactant side than the product side.

The balanced reaction will be:

2 Na + Cl₂  2NaCl

Knowing the chemical properties of a substance will tell you how the substance
ratelena [41]
<span>Whereas physical properties of a substance tells us about how the substance looks, smells, etc, the chemical properties of a substance basically tells us how the substance will react with other substances. Therefore, knowing the chemical property of a substance tells us how the substance reacts with others.Hope this helps. Let me know if you need additional help!</span><span />

Create the Lewis structure of CF4. NOTE: do only the step asked for in each part and then click Check–don't work ahead to solve
Naya [18.7K]

To create the Lewis structure we need to take into account the octet rule: atoms tend to gain, lose or share electrons to complete their valence shell with 8 electrons.

C belongs to Group 4A in the periodic table so it has 4 valence electrons. It needs to share 4 pairs of electrons to complete the octet.

F belongs to Group 7A in the periodic table so it has 7 valence electrons. Each F needs to share 1 pair of electrons to complete the octet.

As a consequence, in CF₄, C will form a single bond with each F and all the octets will be complete.

When a barium atom loses two electrons what charge does it have
Darya [45]

Answer:

It becomes a positive ion and its radius decreases

Explanation:

As per the Octet rule, Barium has 2 electrons in its outermost shell. When it loses the two electron it gains two positive charge i.e Ba2+. As the barium loses the two electron from its outermost shell, the outermost shell becomes vacant and thus is no more considered as a part of atomic geometry of the barium atom and since the outermost shell is considered negligible the radius of barium atom reduces automatically.
