I think you mean “atoms”
And it’s 4 atoms

3 0

Answer: 4


Justification:


1) The dissolution of a formula unit of AlCl₃ is given by the chemical equation:


AlCl₃ (s) → Al₃⁺ + 3 Cl⁻


So, 1 unit of AlCl₃ yields 1 partilce of Al₃⁺ and 3 particles of Cl⁻.


2) You get that through a mass balance and the oxidation states (balance of charge).


i) Mass balance: the same number of atoms of each species must appear on the reactant and the product sides.


ii) The oxidation state of Al is 3+ and the oxidation state of Cl is 1-, so the total net charge is 3+ + 3(1-) = 3 - 3 = 0.

If a 0.320 mM solution of MnO41- has an absorbance of 0.480 at 525 nm in a 1.000 cm cell. What is the concentration of a MnO41-
larisa [96]

Answer:

Hence the concentration of a MnO41- solution that has absorbance of 0.490 in the same cell at that wavelength is 0.3266.

Explanation:

Now A = el, el=const

Then,

A2 / A1 = C2/ C1\\\\0.49/ 0.48 = C2 / 0.32\\\\C2 = 0.3266

Which of the following is not a physical change?

When you burn paper you are chemically altering it so that is the correct answer. When you do all the other choices all of the components stay the same. Just because it changes shapes doesn't mean it'll change chemically toom
