Answer:

The correct alternative is "Option a".

Explanation:

Oxidation has become a mechanism whereby the physicochemical properties transform attributed to the formation of O₂.

  • The connection involving magnesium as well as O₂ requires the oxidation of the component named magnesium.
  • Even before exposed to the air, silicon is oxidized as well as generates silicon dioxide.

Other possibilities are not connected to the scenario in question. So Choice A is the best option.

Will bromine react with sodium and why?
Archy [21]

Br: </span></span>

<span><span>Na:  (2e)
Br:  (7e, you don't count for the d orbitals)

Then, once you know this, you can deduce how many bonds each can do and you discover that bromine can do one bond since he has one electron missing in his p orbital, but that weirdly, since the s orbital of sodium is full and thus, should not make any bond.

However, it is possible for sodium to come in an excited state in wich he will have sent one of its electrons on an higher shell to have this valence configuration:</span></span>

</span>where here now it has two lonely valence electrons, one on the s and the other on the p, so that it can do a total of two bonds.</span><span>That's why bromine and sodium can form </span>

Using the following equation for the combustion of octane calculate the heat associated with the formation of 100.0 g of carbon
natali 33 [55]

Answer:

The right solution is "-602.69 KJ heat".

Explanation:

According to the question,

The 100.0 g of carbon dioxide:

= \frac{100.0 \ g}{114.33\  g/mole}

= 0.8747 \ moles

We know that 16 moles of CO_2 formation associates with -11018 kJ of heat, then

0.8747 moles CO_2 formation associates with,

= -\frac{0.8747}{16}\times 11018 \ KJ \ of \ heat

= -0.0547\times 11018

= -602.69 \ KJ \ heat

Determine the electron-group arrangement, molecular shape, and ideal bond angle(s) for each of the following:
Alja [10]

The electron-group arrangement of CO₃²⁻ is trigonal planar. The molecular shape is trigonal planar, and the ideal bond angle(s) is CO₃²⁻ is 120°

<h3>What is the molecular geometry of a compound?</h3>

The position of the compound's electrons and nuclei can be seen in the molecular geometry. It demonstrates how the form of the complex is created by the interaction of electrons and nuclei.

Here, according to the VSEPR  theory, the shape of the carbonate ion is trigonal planar. The carbon will be in the center.

Thus, the electron-group arrangement and the shape of the carbonate ion are trigonal planar. The bond angle will be 120°.
