Answer:
The answer to your question is: b
Explanation:
a. Magnesium shares an electron somewhat unevenly from its 3s orbital with the 3p orbital of chlorine producing a mildly polar covalent bond. This option is wrong because Mg does not share electrons it loses electrons.
b. Magnesium loses and electron from the 3s and gives it up to the 3p of chlorine producing an ionic bond. This option is correct, Mg loses one electron and Cl receives it, the bond formed between Mg and Cl is ionic.
c. Magnesium does not react chemically with chlorine because magnesium gives up electrons, but chlorine only shares electrons. This answer is wrong, Mg and Cl react and produce MgCl₂.
d. Magnesium shares an electron from the 3s orbital with the 3p orbital of chlorine producing a covalent bond. Mg does not share electrons and is not able to produce covalent bonds.
Mechanical, because the other two make no sense and mechanical energy is the combination of kinetic and potential energy, or moving and still respectively.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
C. The electronegativity value of calcium is lower than the electronegativity value of silicon
is the only correct statement.
Answer:
6H2 + P4→ 4PH3
Explanation:
Phosphorus has 4 in it and hydrogen has 3 in it. in order to balance it, we have to put 4 in front of phosphine so that the phosphorus on the product side has an equal amount as to the one on the reactant side.
the only one left to balance is hydrogen and so in order to balance it we put a 6 on h2 because the hydrogen in the product size becomes 12 (4 * 3).
therefore the hydrogen on the reactant side becomes 12 as well (6 * 2)
Answer: (a) Neon, Nitrogen; (b) Neon, Nitrogen; (c) Neon is lower than Nitrogen; (d) It doesn't affect;
Explanation: The kinetic-molecular theory studies the behavior of particles under pre-determinated situation. In cases of gases, the particles moving around colliding with each other and the walls of the container, without loss of energy. In the case in question, all the parameters are the same (same temperature, volume and pressure), except for the gases, which has different molar masses. In this sense, Neon has lower average speed due to its molar mass being higher, which means, its particles moves slower for being heavier. Related to pressure, as velocity is lower, it collides less with the walls of the tank, and so pressure is lower. For density, it doesn't affect the behavior of the system nor the kinetic energy.
