IRISSAK [1]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Radicals

Explanation:

A radical refers to a chemical specie that contains unpaired electrons in their dot electron diagrams.

Radicals contain an odd number of electrons. They are commonly called odd electron species.

Radicals participate in a number of important reactions. A typical example is the halogenation of alkanes in the presence of light.

Examples of radicals include; Br. , Cl. , F. etc

Which of the following processes is endothermic? Group of answer choices water droplets condensing on a soda can on a hot summer
fgiga [73]

Answer: an ice pack getting cold (due to ammonium nitrate dissolving in water inside the pack)

Explanation:

Endothermic reactions: These are the reactions in which energy is required in the reaction. The energy of the products are more than the energy of the reactants.

Exothermic reactions: These are the reactions in which energy is released in the reaction. The energy of the products is less than the energy of the reactants.

a) water droplets condensing on a soda can on a hot summer day : As the gaseous molecules are changing into liquid phase, energy is released and is exothermic

b) an ice pack getting cold (due to ammonium nitrate dissolving in water inside the pack) : As the temperature is decreasing , energy is absorbed by the surroundings and thus is endothermic

c) thermite reaction between iron(III) oxide and aluminium (spectacular flames are observed)  : As flames are produced, the energy is released and thus is exothermic

d) freezing water to make ice cubes  : As the liquid molecules are changing into solid phase, energy is released and is exothermic

The atomic mass of chlorine is 17 give the electron configuration for a neutral atom of chlorine
Nana76 [90]
1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁵

Explanation:
In writing the first two electrons will go in the 1s orbital.
Since 1s can only hold two electrons the next 2 electrons for chlorine go in the 2s orbital. 
The next six electrons will go in the 2p orbital.
The p orbital can hold up to six electrons.
 We'll pull six in the 2p orbital  and then put the next two electrons in the 3s.
Since the 3s is now full we'll move to the 3p where we'll place the remaining five electrons.

 Hope this helped ;)

Why does magnesium nitrate solution react with zinc nitrate solution, but not magnesium nitrate solution?
zhannawk [14.2K]
When answering this question, you must consider the reactivity series. Mg is much higher than Zn in the reactivity series, therefore it can displace the Zn from the solution - displacement reaction.

It seems odd that you'd react Magnesium nitrate with zinc nitrate. Maybe you meant magnesium with zinc nitrate or vice Versa. Because in your case each compound would remain as it is as both Mg and Zn are happy in a relatively stable compound.

As for magnesium nitrate and magnesium nitrate, you cannot achieve a reaction between two substances that are the same. The same applies for Mg and magnesium nitrate. No displacement happens.

Hope it helps!
