False, it states that matter can be nether created nor destroyed
Given a mole each for iron and magnesium, the number of atoms of each element is equal. Iron has a greater mass due to its greater molecular weight. The correct statement among the choices is D.
Answer:
The magnesium atom loses 2 electron to the 2 atoms of chlorine. The 7 valency electrons of each chlorine atom will now be 8 to attain stable configuration. The final compound is written as MgCl2.
Explanation:
Ionic compounds are compound formed from the transfer of electron(s). One atom of the element loses electron(s) while the other atom gains electron(s).
The compound Magnesium chloride is an ionic compound . The bond between an atom of magnesium and 2 atoms of chlorine is an ionic bonding.
The valency electron of magnesium is 2 electron , for the atom of magnesium to attain octet rule, it will easily lose it 2 electrons to the chlorine atoms.
The chlorine atom on the other hand has 7 valency electrons, to attain octet configuration it will most likely gain 1 electron to become stable.
The magnesium atom loses 2 electron to the 2 atoms of chlorine. The 7 valency electrons of each chlorine atom will now be 8 to attain stable configuration. The final compound is written as MgCl2.
Answer:
3) NaCl.
Explanation:
<em>∵ ΔTf = iKf.m</em>
where, <em>i</em> is the van 't Hoff factor.
<em>Kf </em>is the molal depression freezing constant.
<em>m</em> is the molality of the solute.
<em>The van 't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass. </em>
<em></em>
- For most non-electrolytes dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is essentially 1.
<em>So, for sugar: i = 1.</em>
<em>∴ ΔTf for sugar = iKf.m = (1)(Kf)(2.0 m) = 2 Kf.</em>
<em></em>
- For most ionic compounds dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is equal to the number of discrete ions in a formula unit of the substance.
For NaCl, it is electrolyte compound which dissociates to Na⁺ and Cl⁻.
<em>So, i for NaCl = 2.</em>
<em>∴ ΔTf for NaCl = iKf.m = (2)(Kf)(1.0 m) = 2 Kf.</em>
<em></em>
<em>So, the right choice is: 3) NaCl.</em>
