Why is cl2 a subcript​

Chemistry
1 answer:
vazorg [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

In Cl_2, the 2 is a subscript because it indicates there are 2 of the same elements. The Lewis structure would display it as Cl-Cl.

On the other hand, a superscript would indicate a specific charge.

All subscripts show the amount of the specific element there is.

An example would be O_2\\ or N_2, they both show that there are 2 of the same elements.

If the subscript is outside a parenthesis such as Ca_3(PO_4)_2 it indicates there are 2 PO_4 molecules.

The Henry's law constant (kH) for O2 in water at 20°C is 1.28 × 10−3 mol/(L·atm). (a) How many grams of O2 will dissolve in 4.00
Burka [1]

Answer:

Solubility of O₂(g) in 4L water = 3.42 x 10⁻² grams O₂(g)

Explanation:

Graham's Law => Solubility(S) ∝ Applied Pressure(P) => S =k·P

Given P = 0.209Atm & k = 1.28 x 10⁻³mol/L·Atm

=> S = k·P = (1.28 x 10⁻³ mole/L·Atm)0.209Atm = 2.68 x 10⁻³ mol O₂/L water.

∴Solubility of O₂(g) in 4L water at 0.209Atm = (2.68 x 10⁻³mole O₂(g)/L)(4L)(32 g O₂(g)/mol O₂(g)) = <u>3.45 x 10⁻² grams O₂(g) in 4L water. </u>

What is the difference between a state and a microstate of a system?
Brut [27]

Answer:

a) A microstate is a snapshot of positions and speeds at a particular instant.

b) A thermodynamic state is a single possible arrangement of the positions and kinetic energies of the molecules.

c) A thermodynamic state is a set of conditions, usually temperature and pressure, that defines the properties of a bulk material.

d) A microstate is a single possibility for all the positions and kinetic energies of all the molecules in a sample.

e) A thermodynamic state is a set of conditions, usually temperature, volume and number of moles, that defines the properties of a bulk material.

Explanation:

A state of a system in thermodynamics give the properties that a material is been made up, these properties could be pressure, temperature, volumes and others , they are been called thermodynamic property

Microstates helps us to know how molecules is been arranged in single instant. Kinetics energy as well as position of molecules in a particular substance can be known in single instant.
