Answer:

In the given figure, There are two atoms -

Sodium ( Na )
Chlorine ( Cl )

sodium has one electron in valence shell and to get noble gas configuration ( stability ) it need to donate the outer most electron.

whereas,

chlorine has 7 electrons in valence shell and to get noble gas configuration ( stability ) it need to get one more electron.

in this condition Na ( sodium ) donates it's outermost electron to Cl ( chlorine ) and both became stable.

but now sodium has more number of protons than the electrons hence it get positive (+) charge and chlorine has more electrons than the protons hence it get negative (-) charge

so, they get stick to each other by strong electrostatic force acting on the charged atoms and forms a salt " NaCl " ( sodium chloride ) .

i hope it helped you.....

what is the molar mass of a gaseous flouride of sulfur containing 70.4% F and having a density of approximately 4.5g/L at 20 deg

zlopas [31]

Answer:

The molar mass is 180.2 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

% of F = 70.4 %

Density = 4.5 g/L

Temperature = 20 °C

Pressure = 1 atm

Step 2: Calculate the number of moles

PV = nRT

⇒ with P = the pressure = 1.00 atm

⇒ with V = the volume = Assume this is 1L

⇒ with n = the number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ T = the temperature : 20°C = 293 Kelvin

1 atm*1L= n(0.08206 L-atm/mol-K)*(293 K)

n = 0.04159 moles

Step 3: Calculate molar mass

Molar mass = Mass / moles

4.5 grams / 0.04159 moles = 108.2 g/mol

Step 4: Calculate moles of F

Moles = Mass / molar mass

Moles F = 70.4 g / 19 g/mol

Moles F = 3.70 moles

Moles S = 29.6g / 32.07 g/mol

Moles S = 0.923 moles S

Step 5: Divide by the smallest amount of moles

F = 3.70 / 0.923 = 4

S = 0.923 / 0.923 = 1

The empirical formula is SF4

The molar mass of SF4 = 32.07 + 4*19 = 108.07 g/mol

This means the empirical formula is the same as the molecular formula SF4

The molar mass is 180.2 g/mol

HELPP ME PLEASE!! What would be the density of a 40 g object that displaces 10 ml of water?

Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 4.0 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\$

From the question

mass = 40 g

volume = 10 mL

The density of the object is

$density = \frac{40}{10} = 4 \\$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

What mineral has the least hardness according to the scale?

kenny6666 [7]

The softest mineral in the Mohs Hardness Scale is talc.
Talc is often used in baby powder and corn starch, among other things. Talc cleaves into thin sheets, and it is held together only by van de Waals bonds, which allows these sheets to slip past each other. This gives the mineral its softness and it is often valued as a high-temperature lubricant.

A sample of gas in which [h2s] = 3.50 m is heated to 1400 k in a sealed vessel. after chemical equilibrium has been achieved, wh

Bond [772]

The value of Kc for the thermal decomposition of H₂S is 2.2 x 10⁻⁴ at 1400 K:
2 H₂S(g) ↔ 2 H₂(g) + S₂(g)
initial 3.5 M 0 0
at equilibrium 3.5 M - 2x 2x x
Kc = [S₂][H₂]² / [H₂S]²
2.2 X 10⁻⁴ = x(2x)² / (3.5 - 2x)²
2.2 x 10⁻⁴ = 4 x³ / (3.5)² Assuming x <<<<< 3.5
x = 0.088
Thus [H₂S] = 3.324 M
