Answer:
3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
Explanation
This is a redox reaction.
- Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
- Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
- An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet or duplet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
- [Ne]= (1s²) (2s² 2p⁶)
A combination of both the reactions( Half-reactions) leads to a redox reaction.
Let us look at initial configurations of Al and Cl
[Al]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹
[Cl]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵
Hence, Al can lose 3 electrons to achieve octet config.
and, Cl can gain 1e to achieve nearest noble gas config. [Ar]
This reaction can be rewritten, by clearly mentioning the oxidation states of all the entities involved.
Al⁰ + Cl⁰ → (Al⁺³)(Cl⁻)₃
Here, Aluminum is undergoing an oxidation(i.e loss of electrons) from: 0→(+3)
Chlorine undergoes a reduction half reaction (i.e gain of electrons) from: 0→(-1). There are 3 such chlorine atoms, hence 3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
Answer:
C.
Explanation:
The Clean Air Act was enacted in 1973 and brought to action in 1990. The act was passed to supervise air emissions to ensure clean air and atmosphere for people. The act was passed in the wake of premature deaths of hundred of thousands people. The act works with NAAQS to ensure safe and clean air for the safety of public health.
<u>From the given options the correct one is C. The Clean Air Act supervises the activities which emits air and any activities that is found to pollute the air will be labelled as illegal</u>.
Therefore, option C is correct.
Answer: a rection will most likely occur if the colliding partilces have the proper orientation and energy.
The reactions occur becasue the molecules collide.
But not all the collisions result in a reaction.
The collisions have to meet some requirements.
Two of the basic requirements is that the collision has enough energy to overcome the activation energy and that the molecules collide in the riight way.
When two molecules react it is necessary that one element of one of the molecules interact when a specific element or group in the other molecule. That is the orientation must be the right one.
Collisions that to not have the proper orientation or enough energy will not cause reaction (changes in the bonds of the molecules).
Answer:
5.45*10⁻⁴ moles of silane gas (SiH₄) are present in 8.68 mL measured at 18°C and 1.50 atm.
Explanation:
An ideal gas is a theoretical gas that is considered to be composed of point particles that move randomly and do not interact with each other. Gases in general are ideal when they are at high temperatures and low pressures.
An ideal gas is characterized by three state variables: absolute pressure (P), volume (V), and absolute temperature (T). The relationship between them constitutes the ideal gas law, an equation that relates the three variables if the amount of substance, number of moles n, remains constant and where R is the molar constant of the gases:
P * V = n * R * T
In this case:
- P= 1.5 atm
- V= 8.68 mL= 0.00868 L (being 1000 mL= 1 L)
- n= ?
- R= 0.082
- T= 18 C= 291 K (being 0 C= 273 K)
Replacing:
1.5 atm* 0.00868 L= n* 0.082 *291 K
Solving:
n= 5.45*10⁻⁴ moles
<u><em>5.45*10⁻⁴ moles of silane gas (SiH₄) are present in 8.68 mL measured at 18°C and 1.50 atm.</em></u>
It is B, I believe. Sorry if I am wrong! Hope I helped! ^_^
