Chlorine has 7 valence electrons. Describe the type of bond that sodium would have

1 answer:

4 0

As chlorine has 7 valence electrons and sodium has 1 valence electron so to become stable and complete their octets sodium will become a cation by losing one electron and chlorine will form an anion and will gain one electron in this way both will become stable and an ionic bond will form between sodium and chlorine
Chemical formula:
Na + Cl —> NaCl

a flask was filled with SO2 at a partial pressure of 0.409 atm and O2 at a partial pressure of 0.601 atm. The following gas-phas

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

The equilibrium partial pressure of O2 is 0.545 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Partial pressure of SO2 = 0.409 atm

Partial pressure of O2 = 0.601 atm

At equilibrium, the partial pressure of SO2 was 0.297 atm.

Step 2: The balanced equation

2SO2 + O2 ⇆ 2SO3

Step 3: The initial pressure

pSO2 = 0.409 atm

pO2 = 0.601 atm

pSO3 = 0 atm

Step 4: Calculate the pressure at the equilibrium

pSO2 = 0.409 - 2X atm

pO2 = 0.601 - X atm

pSO3 = 2X

pSO2 = 0.409 - 2X atm = 0.297

X = 0.056 atm

pO2 = 0.601 - 0.056 = 0.545 atm

pSO3 = 2*0.056 = 0.112 atm

Step 5: Calculate Kp

Kp = (pSO3)²/((pO2)*(pSO2)²)

Kp = (0.112²) / (0.545 * 0.297²)

Kp = 0.261

The equilibrium partial pressure of O2 is 0.545 atm

SVEN [57.7K]

The energy released from 1 gram of uranium is more than 1 million times greater than the energy released from 3 grams of coal is True.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Nuclear Fission is the process in which splitting of a nucleus takes place that releases free neutrons and lighter nuclei. The fission of heavy elements like "Uranium is highly exothermic" and releases "200 million eV" compared to the energy that is released by burning coal which gives a few eV.

In the given example, it is obvious that the energy released from 1 gram of uranium is more than that of the energy released from 3 grams of coal because the amount of energy released during nuclear fission is millions of times more efficient per mass than that of coal considering only $\frac{1}{10}^{th}$ part of the original nuclei is converted to energy.
