Chemistry

matrenka [14]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

In a neutral molecule, the sum of the bonding valance electrons must be equal. So the products of the negative element and its charges and the positive element and its charge must be equal.

Explanation:

C1×N1 = C2×N2

If we have a 3 valance electrons , the 'A' charge will be either +3 or -5 for a full octet and valance electron in 'B' atoms will mostly result in acquisition of additional electrons (2) for an octet and relative charge of -2.

Balancing the two,

3 × A = -2 × B

To be equal, A = 2 and B = 3

Therefore, A²B³

For the reaction of sodium bromide with chlorine gas
lina2011 [118]

The reaction of sodium bromide with chlorine gas is Cl₂(aq) + 2Na + 2Br? 2Na + 2Cl⁻ + Br²(aq).

<h3>What is sodium bromide?</h3>

Sodium bromide is an inorganic compound, white, crystalline with high melting point.

The reaction between halogens is redox reaction

Oxidation  – 2Br⁻ ? Br₂ + 2e⁻ loss of electron.

Reduction – Cl₂ + 2e⁻ ? 2Cl⁻ gains of electron.

Thus, the correct option is Cl₂(aq) + 2Na + 2Br? 2Na + 2Cl⁻ + Br²(aq).
