It makes sense that an inner shell electron would be tougher to remove
than a valence electron because the inner shell electron is closer to
the positive nucleus of the atom. Seeing as an electron caries a
negative charge it would be too attracted to the positive core to leave
readily. Also, the inner shell electrons are constantly repelling
electrons outside of it's energy level (however the reason these
electrons outside innershell energy levels don't simply fly away is the
charge of the positive core overcomes the smaller charges of the
comparably negligible inner shell electrons, but that repulsion is still
there so keep that in mind) </span>
Look at the periodic table to find the charge on atoms.
Magnesium is +2 and Nitrogen is -3. Since there are two nitrogen charge 2*-3 = -6 there needs to be 3 Mg then (3*2+ = 6+) to pair with the two nitrogen.
3 Mg(+2) + 2 N(-3) = Mg3N2
Answer:
The number of moles of benzaldehyde = 0.0253 moles
Explanation:
The molecular formula of benzaldehyde is C₇H₆O
Its molecular mass is calculated from the atomic masses of the constituent atoms.
C = 12.0 g: H = 1.0 g; O = 16.0 g
Molecular mass = ( 12 * 7) + (1 * 6) + (16 * 1) = 106.0 g/mol
Number of moles of substance = mass of substance/ molar mass of the substance
mass of benzaldehyde = 2.68; molar mass = 106.0 g/mol
Number of moles of benzaldehyde = 2.68 g/ 106 g/mol = 0.0253 moles
Therefore, the number of moles of benzaldehyde = 0.0253 moles
8.4 grams. I think but I’m not 100% sure
