How many chlorine molecules are in 35.5g of chlorine gas

Chemistry

Since chlorine is one of the 7 diatomic elements we know that chlorine appears as Cl₂ gas naturally.  That means that the molar mass of a chlorine gas is 70.9g/mol.  That being said, first you need to find the number of moles of chlorine gas that are present in a 35.5g sample.  To do this divide 35.5g by the molar mass of chlorine gas (70.9g/mol) to get 0.501mol of chlorine.  Then you have to multiply 0.501mol by 6.02×10²³ to get the number of chlorine gas molecules.  Therefore 3.01×10²³ molecules of chlorine gas are present in a 35.5g sample.

I hope that helps.  Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.

what is the  concentration of a NaCl solution, in Molarity, if you add 59.76 g of NaCl into 270 mL of H2O
enot [183]

Hey there!

Molar mass NaCl = 58.44 g/mol

Number of moles

n =  mass of solute / molar mass

n = 59.76 / 58.44

n = 1.0225 moles of NaCl

Volume in liters:

270 mL / 1000 => 0.27 L

Therefore:

M = number of moles / volume ( L )

M = 1.0225 / 0.27

= 3.78 M

Hope that helps!

Which scientist performed the cathode ray experiment leading to the discovery of electrons
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

The scientist that performed the cathode ray experiment leading to the discovery of electrons is J.J. Thomson.

<h3>What is a cathode ray?</h3>

A cathode ray is a tube that contains negatively charged electrode( that is the cathode) which emits electrons when heated at a low pressure.

The cathode ray was used by the scientist, J.J. Thomson to find the ratio of charge to mass (e/m) of the electrons.

Therefore, the scientist that performed the cathode ray experiment leading to the discovery of electrons is J.J. Thomson.

When elemental boron, B, is burned in oxygen gas, the product is diboron trioxide. If the diboron trioxide is then reacted with
zalisa [80]

<u>Answer:</u> The chemical equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Every balanced chemical equation follows law of conservation of mass.

This law states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form. This also means that total number of individual atoms on reactant side must be equal to the total number of individual atoms on the product side.  

The chemical equation for the reaction of elemental boron and oxygen gas follows:

4B+3O_2\rightarrow 2B_2O_3

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of elemental boron reacts with 3 moles of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of diboron trioxide.

The chemical equation for the reaction of diboron trioxide and water follows:

B_2O_3+3H_2O\rightarrow 2H_3BO_3

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of diboron trixoide reacts with 3 moles of water to produce 2 moles of boric acid.

Hence, the chemical equations are written above.

When h2o is added to a compound in a chemical equation, a new compound can be formed via what type of reaction?
Scorpion4ik [409]

When water is added to a compound in a chemical equation, a new compound can be formed, it is called a hydrolysis reaction.

<h3>What is hydrolysis reaction?</h3>

There are so many kinds of reaction in chemistry we know that a chemical reaction occurs between reactant molecules in order to yield products in the reactants.

The hydrolysis reaction is a breaking up reaction. In a hydrolysis reaction, water is used to break up a molecule. Hence in a hydrolysis reaction water could be regarded as one of the reactants in the reactions going on in the system.

We know that a hydrolysis is a reaction in which water reacts with another reactant molecule to yield products in the reaction. Thus, when water is added to a compound in a chemical equation, a new compound can be formed, it is called a hydrolysis reaction.
