Answer:

CCl4 is a covalent bonded nonpolar molecule.

Explanation:

Although there is an electronegativity (small) difference between C and Cl, its structure with 4 chlorine atoms allows the polarity to be "canceled out." I have attached a picture of the molecule below where you can clearly see the dipole movement on either side gets canceled hence making it have no net dipole movement. Additionally, CCl4 has a total number of valence electrons to be 32. 7 for one chlorine atom and 4 for a carbon one. The octets are satisfied as well. It's covalent because carbon and chlorine are nonmetals.

How many moles of gallium chlorate, Ga(ClO3)3, must react in order to produce 674 kJ of energy according to the following reacti

Valentin [98]

Answer:

10.3 mol Ga(ClO₃)₃

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced thermochemical equation.

2 Ga(ClO₃)₃(s) ⇒ 2 GaCl₃(s) + 9 O₂(s) ΔH = - 130.4 kJ

According to the balanced thermochemical equation, 130.4 kJ of heat are released when 2 moles of gallium chlorate react. The number of moles of gallium chlorate that must react to produce 674 kJ of energy is:

674 kJ × 2 mol Ga(ClO₃)₃/130.4 kJ = 10.3 mol Ga(ClO₃)₃

What’s the formula equation for

jeyben [28]

If you have a magnesium for every oxygen, then you have to start with two magnesiums. So the balanced equation is 2 Mg + O2 2 MgO.

And

CaCO3———→CaO + CO2

I hope it helped!

All atoms of a given element have the same number of____

maksim [4K]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Protons

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

An atom is the smallest particle of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction.
All atoms of the same element are similar in that they have the same number of protons.
Atoms of the same elements may have a different number of electrons or neutrons but will always have the same number of protons.
Atoms of the same elements with a different number of neutrons are known as isotopes.
When neutral atoms gain or lose electron(s) they form charged atoms known as ions.
