Atoms are electrically neutral because they contain equal quantities of positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons. Electrons and protons have equal but opposite charges, so the result is no net charge.

Atoms have no electric charge because the protons and electrons "cancel out" each others charges. Neutrons have no charge. What is the atomic number of an element? The atomic number is the number of protons in the atom's nucleus.

Hope this helps have a great day :)

What is the empirical formula for a compound that contains 10.89% magnesium 31.77% chloride and 57.34% oxygen

Blizzard [7]

Answer: $Mg_{1}Cl_{2}O_{8}$

Explanation:

If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

Mass of Mg = 10.89 g

Mass of Cl = 31.77 g

Mass of O = 57.34 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of Mg= $\frac {\text{ given mass of Mg}}{\text{ molar mass of Mg}}= \frac {10.89g}{24g/mole}=0.45moles$

Moles of Cl = $\frac {\text{ given mass of Cl}}{\text{ molar mass of Cl}}= \frac {31.77g}{35.5g/mole}=0.89moles$

Moles of O = $\frac {\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}=\frac {57.34g}{16g/mole}=3.58moles$

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For Mg = $\frac {0.45}{0.45}=1$

For Cl = $\frac {0.89}{0.45}=2$

For O= $\frac {3.58}{0.45}=8$

The ratio of Mg :Cl : O= 1 : 2 : 8

Hence the empirical formula is $Mg_{1}Cl_{2}O_{8}$

In the laboratory, a student dilutes 18. 9 ml of a 10. 0 m perchloric acid solution to a total volume of 250. 0 ml. what is the

Sever21 [200]

The concentration of diluted solution is 0.756M.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume of stock solution (V1) = 18.9 mL

Molarity of stock solution (M1) = 10 M

Volume of diluted solution (V2) = 250 mL

Molarity of diluted solution (M2) =?

We can obtain the molarity of the diluted solution by using the dilution formula as shown follow:

M1V1 = M2V2

10 × 18.9 = M2 ×250

189 = M2 × 250

Divide both side by 100

M2 = 189 / 250

M2 = 0.756 M

Therefore, the molarity of the diluted solution is 0.756 M.

Thus the concluded that concentration of the dilute acid is 0.756 M.

When a nonmetal oxide reacts with water, it forms an oxoacid with the same oxidation number as the nonmetal. Give the name and f

vaieri [72.5K]

Addition of chlorine to water gives both hydrochloric acid (HCl) and hypochlorous acid (HClO)

What are Transition metal oxides ?

Transition metal oxides (TMOs) are another class of nanomaterials, frequently used as anode in alkaline batteries due to their distinctive properties such as abundant active sites, short diffusion pathways, low preparation cost, high theoretical capacity and distinct reaction mechanism.

Cl2 + H2O ⇌ HClO + HCl

Cl2 + 4 OH− ⇌ 2 ClO− + 2 H2O + 2 e−

Cl2 + 2 e− ⇌ 2 Cl−

The acid can also be prepared by dissolving dichlorine monoxide in water; under standard aqueous conditions, anhydrous hypochlorous acid is currently impossible to prepare due to the readily reversible equilibrium between it and its anhydride.

2 HClO ⇌ Cl2O + H2O K (at 0 °C) = 3.55×10−3 dm3 mol−1

The presence of light or transition metal oxides of copper, nickel, or cobalt accelerates the exothermic decomposition into hydrochloric acid and oxygen

2 Cl2 + 2 H2O → 4 HCl + O2
