When magnesium loses it's valence electrons, it has the atomic structure of what element?

Chemistry

Arte-miy333 [17]3 years ago
4 0

As far as I can tell the best answer for this would be (A) Neon. However, I would argue that this is at the very least a misleading question. Atoms are less identified by their electrons than their protons (which is represented always by its atomic number).  Although atoms can gain or lose electrons, the protons would never change (and remain the same element). Personally, I would have written the question as, "When Magnesium loses its valence electrons, its new number of electrons would most closely resemble _____"

Draw the Lewis structure for BrCl3. What are the approximate bond angles about the central atom?
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

BrCl₃ is an interhalogen compound with a hybridization of sp³d. The approximate bond angles can be predicted from the structure (attached below). Although, the lewis structure might be predicted to be trigonal bipyramidal from the structure, it is however a T-shaped geometry because of it's two lone pairs.

Also, from the structure attached, it can be predicted that the approximate bond angles about the central atom is 120° (360 ÷ 3) since each of the three chlorine atoms is equally spaced about the central atom.

A 33.0−g sample of an alloy at 93.00°C is placed into 50.0 g of water at 22.00°C in an insulated coffee-cup calorimeter with a h
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

THE SPECIFIC HEAT OF THE ALLOY IS 0.9765 J/g K

Explanation:

Mass of alloy = 33 g

Initial temperature of alloy = 93°C

Mass of water = 50 g

Initail temp. of water = 22 °C

Heat capacity of calorimeter = 9.20 J/K

Final temp. = 31.10 °C

specific heat of alloy = unknown

specific heat capacity of water = 4.2 J/g K

Heat = mass * specific heat * change in temperature = m c ΔT

Heat = heat capcity * chage in temperature = Δ H * ΔT

In calorimetry;

Heat lost by the alloy = Heat gained by water + Heat of the calorimeter

                     mc ΔT = mcΔT + Heat capacity * ΔT

33 * C * ( 93 - 31.10) = 50 * 4.2 * ( 31.10 -22) + 9.20 * ( 31.10 -22)

33 * C * 61.9 = 50 * 4.2 * 9.1 + 9.20 * 9.1

2042.7 C = 1911 + 83,72

C = 1911 + 83.72 / 2042.7

C = 1994.72 /2042.7

C =0.9765 J/g K

The specific heat of the alloy is 0.9765 J/ g K

The reaction below shows how silver chloride can be synthesized.
Vesna [10]
AgNO_{3} _{(aq)}  +  NaCl_{(aq)}  ----\ \textgreater \   NaNO_{3} _{(aq)}   +  AgCl _{(aq)}
mole ration of AgCl _{(aq)}  :  AgNO_{3} _{(aq)} =  1 : 1

∴ if moles of  AgNO_{3} _{(aq)} =  15.0 mol
then   "      "     AgCl _{(aq)}  =  15.0 mol

∴  the Option  2 is the answer.

How many atoms are in 8.28 moles of aluminum?
Lilit [14]

Answer:

49.86 × 10²³  atoms of Al

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Al = 8.28 mol

Number of atoms = ?

Solution:

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

For 8.28 moles of Al:

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³  atoms of Al

8.28 mol×6.022 × 10²³  atoms / 1mol

49.86 × 10²³  atoms of Al
