The answer is [Ne] 3s^2 3p^5 because chlorine is the fifth element in the 3rd row of elements in in p orbital
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
A reaction in which heat and light are produced is a combustion reaction. Combustion is said to have occurred when a substance is burnt in oxygen.
The balanced equation of the reaction is;
4Li(s) + O2(g) ------->2Li2O(s)
This reaction is exothermic because heat was produced. The reaction has a low activation energy as the metal easily burst into flames in oxygen. A catalyst is not needed in this reaction because it has a low activation energy.
According to the law of conservation of mass. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. What this means is that in a chemical reaction, the number of atoms of each element on the left hand side must be the same as the same as the number of atoms of the same element on the right hand side.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
when elements reacts to form a compound the elements properties changes completely. This happens due to the fact that a chemical reaction has taken place. In a chemical change new substances are formed and the properties of the products differ entirely from that of the reactant.
for example if hydrogen combines with oxygen to form water, the property of hydrogen differs from oxygen and also both differs chemically when compared to water.

Answer:
atomic mass of X is 48.0 amu
Explanation:
Let y be the atomic mass of X
Molar mass of O_2 is = 2×16 = 32 g / mol
X + O2 -----> XO_2
According to the equation ,
y g of X reacts with 32 g of O_2
24 g of X reacts with Z g of O_2
Z = ( 32×24) / y
But given that 24.0 g of X exactly reacts with 16.0 g of O_2
So Z = 16.0
⇒ (32×24) / y = 16.0
⇒ y = (32×24) / 16
y= 48.0
So atomic mass of X is 48.0 amu
