Answer:The compound created by calcium and chlorine is calcium chloride, and the formula for this compound is CaCl2 .
Explanation:
Answer:The model states that electrons in atoms move in circular orbits around a central nucleus and can only orbit stably in certain fixed circular orbits at a discrete set of distances from the nucleus. These orbits are associated with definite energies and are also called energy shells or energy levels.
bohrs model and other models are really hard to understand but i hope this will help you!
Answer:
Cd is oxidized during the discharge of the battery
Explanation:
Based on the reaction:
2 NiOOH + Cd + 2H₂O → 2Ni(OH)₂ + Cd(OH)₂
And knowing Oxygen and hydrogen never change its charge, we must to find oxidation state of Ni and Cd before and after the reaction:
<em>Ni:</em>
In NiOOH: 2 O = -2*2 = -4 + 1H = +1, = -4 + 1 = -3. And as the molecule is neutral, Ni is 3+
In Ni(OH)₂: OH = -1. As there are 2 OH = -2. That means Ni is +2
The Ni is gaining one electron, that means is been reduced
<em>Cd:</em>
Cd before reaction is as pure solid with oxidation state = 0
Cd after the reaction is as Cd(OH)₂: 2 OH = -2. That means Cd is +2
The Cd is loosing 2 electrons, that means is the species that is oxidized.
