Chemistry

ArbitrLikvidat [17]2 years ago

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

Magnesium is an alkali earth metal and chlorine is a nonmetal. Due to this, and their differences in electronegativity, the elements form an ionic bond. Since magnesium has two valence electrons, it will give them up to two chlorine atoms (which has 7 valence electrons), which needs them to complete its octet. From this, magnesium forms a cation, and will have the ion formula Mg(2+). The two chlorine atoms form anions, and will have the ion formula Cl(1-).

Terms:

  • Cation: a positively charged ion
  • Anion: a negatively charge ion.
  • Electronegativity: the tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself.

Which elements do not strictly follow the octet rule when they appear in the Lewis structure of a molecule?
Virty [35]

Thee question is incomplete; the complete question is;

Which elements do not strictly follow the octet rule when they appear in the Lewis structure of a molecule?

Select one or more:

A: Chlorine

B: Carbon

C: Hydrogen

D: Sulfur

E: Fluorine

F: Oxygen

Answer:

chlorine

sulphur

Explanation:

The octet rule states that, for  atoms to be stable, they must have eight electrons on their outermost shells.

This rule is not strictly followed  by some elements such as sulphur and chlorine. The atoms of these elements can sometimes expand their octet by utilizing the d-orbitals found in the third principal energy level and beyond.

These leads to formation of compounds in which the central atom has more than eight electrons in its outermost shell.

What type of bonding occurs in a sample of pure sodium, ? In other words, how is one sodium atom held to another sodium atom? A.
NeX [460]

Answer:

The answer to your question is B. metallic

Explanation:

Covalent bonding is a bond between two nonmetals and the difference in electronegativity is between 0 and 1.7. Sodium could not have this kind of bond because is a metal.

Ionic bonding is a bond between a metal and a nonmetal and the difference of electronegativity is higher than 1.7. Sodium can have this kind of bond it is necessary one nonmetal.

Metallic, sodium has a metallic bond because this bond is characteristic of metals.

Calculate the percentage composition of Mg3 (Po4)2
lutik1710 [3]
Mg3(PO4)2 - the molar mass would be 262g/mol, which is 100%

Atomic mass of Mg is 24, since we have 3Mg we multiply by 3 and get a mass of 72

262 : 100% = 72 : x%

x = 72*100 / 262

x = 27.5%

And do that for every element — get the molar mass of P and multiply by 2, use a ratio, and get the molar mass of O and multiply by 8 and use ratios :)
