Magnesium is divalent. This means that one magnesium atom needs to lose 2 electrons in order to become stable.
Chlorine, on the other hand, is monovalent. This means that one chlorine atom needs to gain one electron in order to become stable.
Based on this, one magnesium atom will combine with two chlorine atoms, where the magnesium loses two electrons, one for each chlorine.
The formula of the compound formed is: MgCl2
Answer:
5.15 moles
Explanation:
2zn + o2 = 2zno
5.15 2.57 5.15 moles
nzno=500/(16x2+65)= 5.15 moles
-> nzn = 5.15 x 2 ÷ 2 = 5.15 moles
Answer: HCI + KOH → KCI + H20
Explanation:
HCI(aq) + KOH(aq) → KCI(aq) + H20(l)
Acid + base → Salt + Water.
The above is a neutralization reaction in which an acid, aqeous HCl reacts completely with an appropriate amount of a base, aqueous KOH to produce salt, aqueous KCl and water, liquid H2O only.
This is a neutralization reaction since, the hydrogen ion, H+, from the HCl is neutralized by the hydroxide ion, OH-, from the KOH to form the water molecule, H2O and salt, KCl only.
With the info given i would have to say their is no kinetic energy, it's all potential energy.
