Answer:

Cs and I

Explanation:

Salts are formed when an ionic bond is formed between two elements in the compound. Let us recall that the kind of bond formed between any two elements depends on the magnitude of electronegativity difference between the two elements.

Among the options listed, the highest degree of electronegativity difference occurs for the bond between Cs and I. This implies that this bond is ionic and the combination of the two elements will lead to salt formation.

How many moles of chlorine (Cl) atoms are in a sample of 1.72 × 1022 atoms? 0.0286 mol Cl 35.0 mol Cl 1.03 × 1023 mol Cl 1.04 ×

kogti [31]

Given information : Sample of $1.72\times 10^{22} atoms$

We need to find the moles of Chlorine in the given sample.

We can say that we need to find moles from the given atoms.

Relation between mole and atom is given by : $1 mole = 6.022\times 10^{23} atoms$

Where $6.022\times 10^{23}$ is Avogadro number.

$1.72\times 10^{22} atoms\times \frac{1 mole}{6.022\times 10^{23} atoms}$

$1.72\times 10^{22}\times \frac{1 mole}{6.022\times 10^{23}}$

On solving the above equation , atoms(unit) gets cancelled out and we get 0.0286 mol.

In the given sample the moles of Chlorine (Cl) is 0.0286 mol , so option A is correct.

EastWind [94]

Answer :

(a) displacement reaction

(b) combination reaction

(c) disproportionation reaction

(d) displacement reaction

Explanation :

(a) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$Fe+H_2SO_4\rightarrow FeSO_4+H_2$

This reaction is a single replacement reaction or displacement in which the the more reactive element (Fe) replace the less reactive element (H).

(b) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$S+3F_2\rightarrow SF_6$

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the two reactants molecule combine to form a large molecule or single product.

(c) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$2CuCl_2\rightarrow Cu+CuCl_2$

This reaction is a disproportionation reaction in which the chemical species gets oxidized and reduced simultaneously. It is also considered as a redox reaction.

(d) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$2Ag+PtCl_2\rightarrow 2AgCl+Pt$

This reaction is a single replacement reaction or displacement in which the the more reactive element (Ag) replace the less reactive element (Pt).

Can someone help with this???

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

2Mg(s) +O₂(g) → 2MgO(s)

Explanation:

Mg(s) +O₂(g) → MgO(s)

When a chemical equation is balanced, the number of atoms of each element is equal on both sides of the arrow. We usually balance O and H last.

In this case, the number of Mg atoms is equal on both sides. Thus, let's move on to balance the O atoms. On the left side, there are 2 O atoms, while there is only 1 O atom on the left side. Thus, write a '2' in front of MgO.

Mg(s) +O₂(g) → 2MgO(s)

Now, the number of Mg atoms is not equal. Write a '2' in front of Mg to balance it.

2Mg(s) +O₂(g) → 2MgO(s)

The equation is now balanced with 2 Mg atoms and 2 O atoms on each side.
