B. This is the answer because this statement can be proven and is not an opinion.
Answer:
18
Explanation:
The atomic number of chlorine is 17 therefore the atom has 17 electrons, the ion however has 1 extra electron. The charge becomes negative because electrons have a negative charge. 17 + 1 = 18, therefore a chlorine ion with a charge of -1 has 18 electrons.
Answer:
NaI
Explanation:
In I₂, HI and IBr, both atoms are nonmetals and they form covalent bonds in which electrons are shared.
In NaI, Na is a metal and I a nonmetal, so they form an ionic bond, where Na loses an electron to form Na⁺ and I gains an electron to form I⁻. Anions and cations are attracted to each other through electrostatic forces.
Since ionic bonds are stronger than covalent bonds, more energy is required to break them in the melting process, thus having higher melting points.
All in all, NaI is the one with the highest melting point.
You didn't put a + charge on one of the Ag. It has to be on the left side
2H2O + MnO2 ==> MnO4^- + 3e + 4H^+
Ag^+ + e ==> Ag^+
Those are the two BALANCED half reactions. Multiply equation 1 by 1 and equation 2 by 3 and add them.
I answered that in your last question refer to your answer in section 2
