Which of the following happens when chlorine forms an ion?

Jlenok [28]

What happens when chlorine form an ion is that it gains an electron and has an octet in its outer shell ( answer A)

<u><em> Explanation</em></u>

<u><em> </em></u>Chlorine is is in atomic number 17 in periodic table.

The electron configuration of chlorine is 1S2 2S2 2P6 3S2 3P5 or[Ne]3S2 3p5 or 2.8.7.

chlorine therefore has 7 valence electron therefore it gain 1 electron to form Cl- ( ion)

Cl- has 8 electron in its outer shell ( it obeys octet rule of eight valence in outer shell.

What is the (OH-) in a solution with a pOH of 6.48

inn [45]

Through manipulation of equations, we are able to obtain the equation:

$-pOH= log [ OH^{-}]$

Then we can transform the equation into:

$[ OH^{-}]= 10^{-pOH}$

Then we are able to plug in the pOH and directly get [OH-]:

$[ OH^{-}] = 10^{-6.48}$

$[ OH^{-}]=3.31* 10^{-7} M$

The specific heat of copper metal is 0. 385 J/(g °C). How much energy must be added to a 35. 0-gram sample of copper to change t

Rus_ich [418]

The amount of heat required for changing the temperature of copper has been 606 J. Thus, option B is correct.

Specific heat has been defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance by 1 degree Celsius.

The heat required to raise the temperature has been expressed as:

$\rm Heat=mass\;\times\;specific\;heat\;\times\;Change\;in\;temperature$

<h3>Computation for the heat energy required</h3>

The given specific heat of copper has been $\rm 0.385\;J/g^\circ C$

The mass of copper has been, $\rm 35\;g$

The initial temperature of copper has been, $\rm 20^\circ C$

The final temperature of copper has been, $\rm 65^\circ C$

The change in temperature has been, $\Delta T$

$\Delta T=\text{Final\;temperature-Initial\;temperature}\\\Delta T =65^\circ \text C-20^\circ \text C\\\Delta T=45^\circ \text C$

Substituting the values for the heat required as:

$\rm Heat=35\;g\;\times\;0.385\;J/g^\circ C\;\times\;45^\circ C\\Heat=606\;J$

The amount of heat required for changing the temperature of copper has been 606 J. Thus, option B is correct.

An object has a mass of 3.50 grams and a density of 5.61 g/mL. What is the volume of this object? *

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

$volume = \frac{mass}{density} \\$

From the question we have

$volume = \frac{3.50}{5.61} \\ = 0.6238859...$

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

During combustion, methane yields carbon dioxide and water. The unbalanced equation for this reaction is:CH4(g)+O2(g) → CO2(g)+

almond37 [142]

Answer:

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

Mole ratios for the balanced equation be:

1:2, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 2:2

Explanation:

CH4(g)+O2(g) → CO2(g)+ H2O(l)

To balance a chemical equation, you must have the same mole of each element in both sides of the reaction (reactant side and product side)

CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

2 C

8 H

8 O

In both side.

It takes 1 mole of methane to react with 2 mole of oxygen in order to produce 1 mol of dioxide and 2 mole of water.

Mole ratios for the balanced equation be:

1:2, 2:1, 1:1, 1:2, 2:2 - We should compare each compound

1 mol methane → 2 mole of oxygen

2 mole of oxygen → 1 mol of methane

2 mole of oxygen → 1 mol of dioxide

1 mole of dioxide → 1 mol of Methane

2 mole of water → 2 mole of oxygen (the same as opposite)

1 mol methane → 2 mole of water

2 mol of water → 1 mol of methane
