Why is the symbol for a piece of aluminum foil written as AI, when it actually contains billions of aluminum atoms?

Chemistry

Answer:

Read Explanation

Explanation:

Aluminum foil does contain billions of atoms, but we write them just as Al because aluminum does not exist in single atom forms in normal circumstances but as billions in metallic bonds.

Which of the following claims may be made based on your observations? (You will recieve negative points for wrong answers.)
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

D, E and F

Explanation:

About tetrachloro cobalt complexes, the following facts have been observed  

  • Color of the tetrachloro cobalt complexes is blue.
  • They do not decompose on heating that means synthesis of tetra chloro is endothermic.

About hexa aqua cobalt complexes, the following facts have been observed  

  • Color of the hexa aqua cobalt complexes is pink color.
  • They decompose on heating and remain stable on cooling that means process of synthesis of hexa aqua cobalt complexes is exothermic.

Based on above, the correct statements are:

The correct is chloro cobalt complex is blue and aqua cobalt  

complex is pink.  

The chloro complex is favored by heating.

If the chloro complex is a product, then the reaction must be endothermic.

The correct options are D, E and F.

Use the following half-reactions to write three spontaneous reactions, calculate E°cell for each reaction, and rank the oxidizin
Ainat [17]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

1)

we know that

half cell with higher reduction potential is cathode

so

cathode :

N20 + 2H+ + 2e- ---> N2 + H20

anode :

Cr(s) ---> Cr+3 + 3e-

so

overall reaction is

3 N20 + 6H+ + 2 Cr ---> 3N2 + 3H20 + 2Cr+3

now

Eo cell = Eo cathode - Eo anode

so

EO cell = 1.77 + 0.74

Eo cell = 2.51 V

now

in this case

oxidizing agents are N20 and Cr+3

reducing agents are Cr and N2

higher the reduction potential , stronger the oxidizing agent

lower the reduction potential , stronger the reducing agent

so

oxidzing agents

N20 > Cr+3

reducing agents

Cr > N2

2)

cathode :

Au+ + e- --> Au

anode :

Cr ---> Cr+3 + 3e-

overall reaction

3Au+ + Cr ---> 3Au + Cr+3

Eo cell = 1.69 + 0.74

Eo cell = 2.43

now

oxidizing agents :

Au+ > Cr+3

reducing agents :

Cr > Au

3)

cathode :

N20 + 2H+ + 2e- ---> N2 + H20

andoe :

Au ---> Au+ + e-

overall

2 Au + N20 + 2H+ --> 2 Au+ + N2 + H20

Eo cell = 1.77 - 1.69

Eo cell = 0.08

oxidizing agents

N20 > Au+

reducing agents

Au > N2

What is the reason for the low solubility of LiF (0.27 g
Brut [27]

Answer:

The answer is C. The high solvation energy for LI+

Explanation:

LiF has lower solubility because of the high solvation energy of Li+ ion. This is due to the smaller  size and very big charge compared to Cs+ ion which has a bigger size and solvent molecules easily surround it.

Solvation energy is simply the amount energy that is required to make a solute dissolve in a solvent.
