<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equation is
<u>Explanation:</u>
There are 2 types of reactions that are classified based on enthalpy change:
- Endothermic reaction
- Exothermic reaction
Endothermic reactions: They are defined as the reactions where heat is absorbed by the reaction. The change in enthalpy of the reaction is always positive.
Exothermic reactions: They are defined as the reactions where heat is released by the reaction. The change in enthalpy of the reaction is always negative.
Given values:
Energy released for 1 mole of HCl reacted = -42.1 kCal
The chemical equation for the formation of ammonium chloride follows:
Answer:
Here's what I get
Explanation:
1. Trends in atomic size
Atomic size tends to decrease from left to right across the Periodic Table.
You are adding one electron at a time. the electrons repel each other, so the size should increase.
You are also adding a proton to the nucleus. The additional attraction should pull the electrons closer to the nucleus.
The nuclear pull wins, so the atoms get smaller from left to right
Atomic size increases from top to bottom of a Group.
You are adding electrons to an extra shell, so the size should increase.
You are also adding protons to the nucleus, so the size should decrease.
The size of the outer shell wins, so the atomic size increases going down a Group.
2. Lewis structures
(a) Ammonium ion
N is the central atom. The N atom has the positive charge.
(b) Sulfur trioxide
S is the central atom, with a double bond to each of the three O atoms.
(c) Hydrogen cyanide
C is the central atom, with a triple bond to the N atom.
3. COS
The best structure is that of O=C=S. It has no formal charges.
The Lewis structures for the other arrangements have formal charges.
