In a reaction, chlorine accepts an electron to form Cl-. What is true about the atomic size of the chlorine ion?
Lynna [10]

Answer is: The atomic size of the chlorine ion is larger than the size of the chlorine atom.

Covalent radii of chlorine atom (Cl) is 0.099 nm and ionic radii of chlorine anion (Cl⁻) is 0.181 nm.

Difference between an chlorine atom and chlorine anion is the number of electrons that surround the nucleus.

Chlorine atom has 17 electrons and chlorine anion has 18 electrons.

How are models useful in describing how molecules are formed
Nady [450]

Answer:

The purpose of molecular modeling is to provide a three-dimensional image (either physical or software-based) that allows a chemist to better see the manner in which atoms and molecules can interact. These models can be used to interpret existing observations or to predict new chemical behavior.

Explanation:

It can describe shape and how they connect while forming the electrons.

Which reactants would lead to a spontaneous reaction?
balandron [24]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The elements which have excess or deficiency of electrons will react readily.

Atomic number of Mn is 25 and electronic configuration of Mn^{2+} is [Ar]4s^{0}3d^{5}. This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Cr is 24 and electronic configuration of Cr is [Ar]4s^{1}3d^{5}. This configuration is not stable.

Atomic number of Fe is 26 and electronic configuration of Fe is [Ar]4s^{2}3d^{6}. This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Cu is 29 and electronic configuration of Cu^{2+} is [Ar]4s^{0}3d^{9}. This configuration is not stable.

Atomic number of Al is 13 and electronic configuration of Al is 1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{1}. This configuration is not stable.

Atomic number of Ba is 56 and electronic configuration of Ba^{2+} is [Kr]4d^{10}5s^{2}5p^{6}. This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Mg is 12 and electronic configuration of Mg^{2+} is 1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}. This configuration is stable.

Atomic number of Sn is 50 and electronic configuration of Sn is [Kr]4d^{10}5s^{2}5p^{2}. This configuration is stable.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, only Fe and Cu^{2+} reactants would lead to a spontaneous reaction as they have incomplete sub-shells. Therefore, in order to gain stability they will readily react.

Hydrogen sulfide gas is combusted with oxygen gas to produce sulfur dioxide gas and water vapour. If there is 48.4 L of oxygen a
Kitty [74]

Answer:

2H2S + 3O2 → 2SO2 + 2H2O

V(O2) = 48.4 L

p = 105 kPa = 1.036 atm

T = 190 + 273 = 463 K

Ideal gas law:

pV = nRT

n = \frac{pV}{RT}n=

R = 0.08206 L×atm/mol×K

n(O2) = \frac{1.036 \times 48.4}{0.08206 \times 463}=1.319 \; mol=  

0.08206×463

If one contraction cycle in muscle requires 55 kJ55 kJ , and the energy from the combustion of glucose is converted with an effi
Juliette [100K]

Answer:

18 moles

Explanation:

Here the combustion of one mole of glucose ----> carbon dioxide + water, releases 2870 kilojoules / moles.

_______________________________________________________

With one contraction cycle requiring 55 kilojoules,

2870 / 55 ≈ 52.18

And with the efficiency being 35 percent,

52.1818..... * 0.35 = ( About ) 18 moles

<u><em>Hope that helps!</em></u>
