Answer:

Alcoa Process:

Al Reaction 2.74: 23+2+32→23++2

Explanation:

2O3 from the Bayer process is chlorinated under reducing condition in the presence of C at (700-900)0 C to produce AlCl3, CO, CO2. AlCl3 vapour from the reaction is condensed at 700C in a fluid bed containing AlCl3 particles. The solid AlCl3 particles containing feed into an electrolytic cell containing a fused chloride electrolyte (AlCl3+NaCl+LiCl) at 7000 C. On electrolysis, Al (liquid) formed at the cathode, gaseous Cl2 liberated at the anode.

Instead, it is extracted by electrolysis. The ore is first converted into pure aluminium oxide by the Bayer Process, and this is then electrolysed in solution in molten cryolite - another aluminium compound. The aluminium oxide has too high a melting point to electrolyse on its own. The usual aluminium ore is bauxite.

What does the group number on the periodic table tell you about the electron configuration of a
jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The group number in the periodic table represents number of valence electrons of the elements in a certain group.

Explanation:

There are s, p, d, and f blocks, which you can see in periodic table

The s-block and p-block together are usually considered main-group elements, the d-block corresponds to the transition metals, and the f-block encompasses nearly all of the lanthanides (like lanthanum) and the actinides (like actinium)

There are three main principles, which may useful for you:

  • The Pauli exclusion rule basically says that at most, 2 electrons are allowed to be in the same orbital.
  • Hund’s rule explains that each orbital in the subshell must be occupied with one single electron first before two electrons can be in the same orbital.
  • The Aufbau process describes the process of adding electron configuration to each individualized element in the periodic table.

Hope this helps!

How many electrons does nitrogen (N) need to gain to have a stable outer electron shell
earnstyle [38]
It need "3 electrons" to have a stable electronic configuration. 

'cause it has 5 electrons in it's outer shell & every atom needs 8 electrons. So, it requires 3 more!

Hope this helps!

How many grams of carbonic acid were produced by the 3.00 g sample of NaHCO
stellarik [79]
I think the given is 3 g sample of NaHCO3. then if it will be reacted with an acid, it will produce H2CO3.
 so the reaction NaHCO3 + HCl --> NaCl + H2CO3

mas of H2CO3 = 3 g NaHCO3 ( 1 mol NaHCO3 / 84 g ) ( 1 mol H2CO3 / 1 mol NaHCO3) ( 62.03 g / 1 mol )
mass of H2CO3 = 2.22 g H2CO3
