What action would you expect an atom of Aluminum to undergo?

Chemistry
1 answer:
KATRIN_1 [288]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

C. Lose three electrons to have a full outer shell  

Explanation:

Al is in Group 13 of the Periodic Table, so it has three valence electrons.

It must either lose three electrons or gain five to achieve a stable octet.

It is easier to lose three electrons than it is to gain five, so Al loses three electrons.

D. is wrong, for the same reason.

A. is wrong. If Al lost three electrons, it would be breaking into a stable inner shell.

C. is wrong. Al is a metal, so it will lose electrons in a reaction.

A little boy has placed his pet squirrel into a balloon with a volume of 3L at a pressure of 1.0 atm. If the boy takes his pet s
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: The squirrel's balloon will be 0.86 L

Explanation:

To calculate the new volume, we use the equation given by Boyle's law. This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.

The equation given by this law is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1\text{ and }V_1 are initial pressure and volume.

P_2\text{ and }V_2 are final pressure and volume.

We are given:

P_1=1.0atm\\V_1=3L\\P_2=3.5atm\\V_2=?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.0\times 3L=3.5\times V_2\\\\V_2=0.86

Thus the squirrel's balloon will be 0.86 L

Write the balanced equation for the equilibrium reaction for the dissociation ofsilver chloride in water, and write the K expres
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the the concentrations are not given, and not even the Ksp, we can solve this problem by setting up the chemical equation, the equilibrium constant expression and the ICE table only:

AgCl(s)\rightleftharpoons Ag^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)

Next, the equilibrium expression according to the produced aqueous species as the solid silver chloride is not involved in there:

Ksp=[Ag^+][Cl^-]

And therefore, the ICE table, in which x stands for the molar solubility of the silver chloride:

       \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ AgCl(s)\rightleftharpoons Ag^+(aq)+Cl^-(aq)

I          -                   0             0

C        -                   +x           +x

E        -                    x             x

Which leads to the following modified equilibrium expression:

Ksp=x^2

Unfortunately, values were not given, and they cannot be arbitrarily assigned or assumed.

Regards!

Calculate the number of moles of ethanol acid in 30 cm³of 1 mol dm-³ solution ​
muminat

Answer:

May I assume "ethanol acid is just ethanol (it has one slightly acidic H atom).  If so, the molar mass is 46.02 g/mole.

Explanation:

We have 30 cm^3 [30 ml] of 1.0 M (1 mole/liter)  [1 dm³ = 1 liter].

That is 1 mole/liter.  30 ml would contain (0.030 liter)*(1 mole/1 liter) = 0.03 moles.

Give an example of a solution that can be seperated by simple distilation.​
Juliette [100K]

Answer: Evaporation of salt water

Explanation: During the process of evaporating salt water which involves simple distillation, pure water is separated with salt molecules.

When heated water evaporates from the solution since it is less dense. When condensed it becomes pure water and salt is left out since it is more denser.
