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

1 answer:

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

The complete combustion of ethanol, c2h5oh(l), to form h2o(g) and co2(g) at constant pressure releases 1235 kj of heat per mole

likoan [24]

Since it was specifically stated that heat is released, therefore heat is located on the right side of the reaction equation. Also stating the states of each compound, the complete balanced reaction would be:

C2H5OH (l) + 3 02 (g) -----> 2 CO2 (g) + 3 H2O (g) + 1235 kJ
