3 Chlorine ions are required to bond with one aluminum ion.
In ionic bonds, metals atoms loses all its outermost shell electrons to form a cation. While, non metal atoms gains however many electrons in order to make its outermost electron shell be 8 (or 2 if there's only one shell).
Therefore, form the periodic table, we can see that aluminum has a atomic number of 13, which makes its electron arrangement be 2,8,3. So, in order to form a aluminum ion, an Al atom must lose 3 electrons. On the other hand, Chlorine has a atomic number of 17, which means it has the electron configuration of 2,8,7. It has to gain only 1 electron to have 8 outermost shell electron.
Thereofre, 3 Chlorine atom are required to gain all 3 electrons given out by just 1 aluminum ion.
Answer:
15.89grams
Explanation:
The mass of a substance can be calculated from it's mole value by using the formula:
mole = mass/molar mass
According to this question, there are 0.250 moles of copper. Hence, the mass of copper can be calculated as follows:
Molar mass of Cu = 63.55g/mol
0.250 = mass/63.55
mass = 0.250 × 63.55
mass = 15.8875
Mass of Cu in 0.250mol is 15.89grams.
