Answer:
3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
Explanation
This is a redox reaction.
- Oxidation (loss of electrons or increase in the oxidation state of entity)
- Reduction (gain of electrons or decrease in the oxidation state of the entity)
- An element undergoes oxidation or reduction in order to achieve a stable configuration. It can be an octet or duplet configuration. An octet configuration is that of outer shell configuration of noble gas.
- [Ne]= (1s²) (2s² 2p⁶)
A combination of both the reactions( Half-reactions) leads to a redox reaction.
Let us look at initial configurations of Al and Cl
[Al]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p¹
[Cl]= 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁵
Hence, Al can lose 3 electrons to achieve octet config.
and, Cl can gain 1e to achieve nearest noble gas config. [Ar]
This reaction can be rewritten, by clearly mentioning the oxidation states of all the entities involved.
Al⁰ + Cl⁰ → (Al⁺³)(Cl⁻)₃
Here, Aluminum is undergoing an oxidation(i.e loss of electrons) from: 0→(+3)
Chlorine undergoes a reduction half reaction (i.e gain of electrons) from: 0→(-1). There are 3 such chlorine atoms, hence 3 e⁻ transfer has occurred.
Answer:
102g of crystals
Explanation:
When the Cr(NO₃)₃⋅9H₂O is dissolved in water at 15°C, the maximum mass that water will dissolve in the equilibrium is 208 g per 100g of water. When you heat the water, this mass will increases.
In this problem, at 35°C the water dissolves 310g in 100g of water, as in the equilibrium at 15°C the maximum mass is 208g, the mass of crystals that will form is:
310g - 208g = <em>102g of crystals</em>
<em>-Crystals are the Cr(NO₃)₃⋅9H₂O that is not dissolved-.</em>
I hope it helps!
Answer:
The mixing of two chemicals may result in the production of a gas which is lost to the air. This will reduce the mass of the chemical mixture, because mass is being lost in a gaseous form.
Answer:
What is the total number of valence electrons in the Lewis structure of nh4+?
Total valence electrons pairs
Total electron pairs are determined by dividing the number total valence electrons by two. For, NH4+, Total pairs of electrons are 4.
