The gaining of electron by an atom results in the formation of anion shown by the negative charge on the atom whereas lose of electron results in the formation of cation shown by positive charge on the atom. The atom lose or gain electron to complete their octet and get stable in nature.
The chlorine atom will gain an electron and form chloride anion with one negative charge on it. The chloride ion is more stable in nature compared to the chlorine atom due to complete octet of chloride ion by gaining of electron.
Electronic configuration of chlorine atom is:
![[Ne]3s^{2}3p^{5}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNe%5D3s%5E%7B2%7D3p%5E%7B5%7D)
By gaining of one electron, electronic configuration of chloride ion is:
![[Ne]3s^{2}3p^{6}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BNe%5D3s%5E%7B2%7D3p%5E%7B6%7D)
Thus, the equation that shows the formation of the chloride ion from a neutral chlorine atom is:

srry the pic is not clear......
l cant see it.....
Balanced equation:
<span>2 NO + 5 H2 ------> 2 NH3 + 2 H2O
</span>
<span>2 moles NO react with 5 moles H2 to produce 2 moles NH3
</span>
<span>Molar mass of NO = 30.00 g/mol </span>
<span>86.3g NO = 86.3/30.00 = 2.877 moles of NO </span>
<span>This will require: 2.877*5 / 2 = 7.192 moles of H2 </span>
<span>Molar mass of H2 = 2 g/mol </span>
<span>25.6g H2 = 25.6/2 = 12.7 mol H2. </span>
<span>You have excess H2 means the NO is limiting </span>
<span>From the balanced equation: </span>
<span>2 moles of NO will produce 2 moles of NH3 </span>
<span>2.877 moles of NO will produce 2.877 moles of NH3 </span>
<span>Molar mass NH3 = 17g/mol </span>
<span>Mass NH3 produced = 2.877 * 17 = 48.91g
Hence the yield is = 48.91 g ~ 49 g</span>
Because magnesium loses its electrons easily than aluminum
