Answer:

[Cl-18]⁻ & [Cl-20]⁻

Explanation:

By definition isotopes are elements with the same number of protons by different number of neutrons. Elements X-18 & X-20 have 17 protons and represent Chlorine isotopes Cl-18 & Cl-20 each with 17 protons and 18 electrons to give the isotopes a -1 oxidation state. Both isotope of chlorine have 7 electron in its valence shell and 10 electrons in its core structure.  Gaining 1 electron fills the valence octet and establishes a -1 oxidation state.

Which of the following polyatomic ions will form an ionic compound with two sodium ions? CO32− HCO31− NO21− NO31−
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

CO32−

Explanation:

We have to consider the valencies of the polyatomic ions involved. Recall that it is only a polyatomic ion with a valency of -2 that can form a compound which requires two sodium ions.

When we look closely at the options, we will realize that among all the options, only CO32− has a valency of -2, hence it must be the required answer. In order to be double sure, we put down the ionic reaction equation as follows;

2Na^+(aq) + CO3^2-(aq) ---------> Na2CO3(aq)

Why is it difficult for hydrogen atoms to stick together
Rasek [7]

Answer:

So, the energy of two hydrogen atoms is lower when the two atoms are together than when the two atoms are apart; that is why they stay together.

35.0 mL of 12.0 M HCl is added to enough water to have a final volume of 1.20 L. What is the molarity of the final solution?
creativ13 [48]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

0.35 M

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

  • Initial volume as 35.0 mL or 0.035 L
  • Initial molarity as 12.0 M
  • Final volume is 1.20 L

We are required to determine the final molarity of the solution;

  • Dilution involves adding solvent to a solution to make it more dilute which reduces the concentration and increases the solvent while maintaining solute constant.
  • Using dilution formula we can determine the final molarity.

M1V1 = M2V2

  • Rearranging the formula;

M2 = M1V1 ÷ V2

     = (12.0 M × 0.035 L) ÷ 1.2 L

      = 0.35 M

Thus, the final concentration of the solution is 0.35 M
