When bonding to other elements, it is easier for a sodium atom to gain seven electrons than to lose one electron.

Chemistry

MrRissso [65]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

it's easier to lose one electron because it's less work for the atom to do and easier to lose one than gain a whole 7, because the atom wants to gain a full outer shell as soon as possible

A gas has a volume of 45.0 mL and a pressure of .98 atm. If the pressure increased to 2.1 atm and the temperature remained the s
goblinko [34]

Answer: The new volume is 95.45 mL.

Explanation:

Given: V_{1} = 45.0 mL,         P_{1} = 0.98 atm

P_{2} = 2.1 atm,               V_{2} = ?

According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume.

Therefore, formula used to calculate the new volume is as follows.

\frac{P_{1}}{V_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}}{V_{2}}

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

\frac{P_{1}}{V_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}}{V_{2}}\\\frac{0.98 atm}{45.0 mL} = \frac{2.1 atm}{V_{2}}\\V_{2} = 95.45 mL

Thus, we can conclude that the new volume is 95.45 mL.

Solid calcium carbonate (CaCO3) reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCI) to form carbon dioxide, water, and
Pavlova-9 [17]

Using a more concentrated HCl solution and Crushing the CaCO₃ into a fine powder makes the reaction to occur at a faster rate.

<u>Explanation:</u>

CaCO₃(s) + 2HCl(aq) → CaCl₂(aq) + H₂O(aq) + CO₂(g)

When calcium carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid, it gives out carbon-dioxide in the form of bubbles and there is a formation of calcium chloride in aqueous medium.

The rate of the reaction can be increased by

  • Using a more concentrated HCl solution
  • Crushing the CaCO₃ into a fine powder

When concentrated acid is used instead of dilute acid then the reaction will occur at a faster rate.

When CaCO₃ is crushed into a fine powder then the surface area will increases thereby increasing the rate of the reaction.
