<u>Answer:</u> The chemical symbol of the compound formed is XCl or NaCl

<u>Explanation:</u>

An ionic compound is formed when the complete transfer of electrons takes place from one element (usually metals) to another element (usually non-metals).

The element losing electron (metal) forms a positive ion known as a cation while the element gaining electron (non-metal) forms a negative ion known as an anion.

Element X has the atomic number 11 which is sodium. The electronic configuration of it is 1s^22s^22p^63s^1

This element will lose 1 electron to form X^+ ion of Na^+

Chlorine has the atomic number 17. The electronic configuration of it is 1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5

This element will gain 1 electron to form Cl^- ion

When these two ions combine, they lead to the formation of an ionic compound having a chemical formula of XCl or NaCl

Hence, the chemical symbol of the compound formed is XCl or NaCl

Give 3 safety measures in handling acids or basic
Mama L [17]
<span>Safety glasses are to be worn whenever working with acids, bases, or any flammable materials. Let the instructor know immediately about any glassware breakage or chemical spills that may occur so that proper cleanup procedures can be instituted.Use pipet fillers whenever pipeting any fluid.Whenever working with acids or bases, have the chemicals available at your work station, do not carry pipets with fluid across the room.When diluting acids, pour the acid into the water, NOT water into acid as this may cause spattering of the acid.When acid is mixed with another reagent, an exothermic reaction may occur which heats up the container, This is natural, so do not panic and spill contents.All volatile materials must be handled in a hood with the exhaust fan on.When refluxing any solutions, perform this operation under a hood, and use boiling beads in the reflux vessel to prevent any excessive "bumping" and possible glass breakage.Use heat-resistant gloves and/or tongs when handling hot glassware, chinaware, etc.Use plastic gloves when handling any hazardous materials to prevent skin contact.Label and date all chemical mixtures that are made up and kept for future use.Do not store basic solutions in glass containers with glass stoppers, use plastic or rubber stoppers.Dispose of all used solutions in an approved manner as directed by the instructor.Empty all used inoculated bacteriological media from test tubes or dishes into a designated container so that it may be sterilized before disposal.Before leaving, turn off all power and heat to the apparatus you have used, or place in the standby mode.Clean all spatulas, glassware, and dishes after use and before storage to prevent contamination.<span>Return all chemicals you are using to their proper storage space.Be familiar with the use of the eye-wash, the laboratory shower (if equipped), and the first-aid kit if they are needed at any time.</span></span>

Which of the following explains the conservation of mass during cellular respiration?
lord [1]

Answer:

The total number of atoms when glucose and oxygen reacts stays the same when carbondioxide and water are produced.

Explanation:

Chemical reaction:

C₆H₁₂O₆  +  6O₂  →  6CO₂ + 6H₂O

We can see that the number of atoms of each element remain same on both side of reaction so law of conservation of mass is followed by this reaction. Six number of carbon atoms twelve number of hydrogen atoms and eighteen number of oxygen atoms are present on both side.

There are two types of respiration:

1. Aerobic respiration  

2. Anaerobic respiration

Aerobic respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the presence of oxygen to yield large amount of energy. Water and carbon dioxide are also produced as a byproduct.

Glucose + oxygen → carbon dioxide + water + 38ATP

Anaerobic Respiration

It is the breakdown of glucose molecule in the absence of oxygen and produce small amount of energy. Alcohol or lactic acid and carbon dioxide are also produced as byproducts.  

Glucose→ lactic acid/alcohol + 2ATP + carbon dioxide

This process use respiratory electron transport chain as electron acceptor instead of oxygen. It is mostly occur in prokaryotes. Its main advantage is that it produce energy (ATP) very quickly as compared to aerobic respiration.
