Which is more stable: neutral chlorine atoms or chlorine ions? Why?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
lubasha [3.4K]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

When we say "chlorine wants to gain one electron", we speak of the radical atom. Chlorine as a free radical, Cl⋅ , is the chlorine atom that we say has 7 valence electrons and wants its 8th to form an octet. So, Cl⋅ , chlorine radical, is less stable, and Cl− , chlorine ion, is more stable

Yet a third pair of compounds of manganese and oxygen is 50.48% and 36.81% oxygen respectively. In what small whole number ratio
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

The number ratio is 4:7

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Compound 1 has 50.48 % oxygen

Compound 2 has 36.81 % oxygen

Molar mass oxygen = 16 g/mol

Molar mass manganese = 54.94 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate % manganes

Compound 1: 100 - 50.48 = 49.52 %

Compound 2: 100 - 36.81 = 63.19 %

Step 3: Calculate mass

Suppose mass of compounds = 100 grams

Compound 1:

 50.48 % O = 50.48 grams

 49.52 % Mn = 49.52 grams

Compound 2:

36.81 % O = 36.81 grams

63.19 % Mn = 63.19 grams

Step 4: Calculate moles

Compound 1

Moles O = 50.48 grams / 16.0 g/mol = 3.155 moles

Moles Mn = 49.52 grams / 54.94 g/mol = 0.9013 moles

Compound 2

Moles O = 36.81 grams / 16.0 g/mol = 2.301 moles

Moles Mn = 63.19 grams / 54.94 g/mol = 1.150 moles

Step 5: calculate mol ratio

We will divide by the smallest amount of moles

Compound 1

O: 3.155/0.9013 = 3.5

Mn: 0.9013 / 0.9013 = 1

Mn2O7

Compound 2

O: 2.301 / 1.150 = 2

Mn: 1.150 / 1.150 = 1

MnO2

The number ratio is 2:3.5 or 4:7

A sealed flask contains Ne, Ar, and Kr gas. If the total pressure in the flask is 3.782 atm, the partial pressure of Ne is 0.435
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

P_{Ar}=1.734atm = partial pressure of Ar

Explanation:

Acccoding to dalton's law of partial pressure total pressure of system is equal to alzebraic sum of all partial pressure.

P_{total} =P_{Ne}+P_{Ar} +P_{Kr}

P_{total}=3.782atm

P_{Ne}=0.435 atm

P_{Kr}=1.613atm

P_{Ar}=P_{total}-P_{Ne}-P_{Kr}

P_{Ar}=3.782-0.435-1.613

P_{Ar}=1.734atm =partial pressure of Ar
