Answer: 1Ca + 2O + 2H

Explanation:

Ca is 1 since there is no subscript

O and H each have 2 because the subscript 2 is outside the parenthesis so you multiply their subscript (1) by 2

What is the main exception in the atomic radius? Explain.

yarga [219]

Answer:

The atomic radius of atoms generally decreases from left to right across a period. There are some small exceptions, such as the oxygen radius being slightly greater than the nitrogen radius. Within a period, protons are added to the nucleus as electrons are being added to the same principal energy level.

hope this helps!

Answer:

this is fairly simple if you have a periodic table with you.

Explanation:

atomic number 17 is Cl mass numer is 35.45 for protons neutron and electron you can just look that up on google. atomic number is where it is at on the periodic table and the mass number is in the little square at the bottom.

Classify which compounds will dissolve in water and which ones will not dissolve in water.

vredina [299]

Answer:

Dissolves in water: Acetone, 1-propanol, Methanol

Do not dissolve in water: Hexane, Decane

Explanation:

From the principle that like dissolves like,polar substances will dissolve in polar solutions, while non-polar substances will dissolve in non-polar substances.

Water is a polar solution, therefore, polar substances will dissolve in it.From the given options:

Acetone is a polar molecule, therefore, it will dissolve in water.

1-propanol is a polar molecule, therefore, it will dissolve in water.

Hexane is a non-polar molecule, therefore, it will not dissolve in water.

Methanol is a polar molecule, therefore, it will dissolve in water.

Decane is a non-polar molecule, therefore, it will not dissolve in water

Question 43 please. i’m not sure if i got the right answer

hram777 [196]

a) The reaction is exothermic since the overall enthalpy change is negative. this means that the system has lost energy to the environment, namely, the apparatus and due to drought.

b) We first calculate the number of moles in 3.55 grams of magnesium.

number of moles= mass/ atomic mass

=3.55/24

=0.1479 moles(to 4sf)

now, if 2 moles of magnesium give -1204kJ

How much energy is given by 0.1479 moles

= (0.1479×-1204kJ)

=-89.0358kJ (don't forget the negative sign)

c) two molesof MgO produces -1204kJ of energy

then -234kJ will be produced by

=(-234kJ×2moles)/1204kJ

=0.3887moles

one mole of MgO weighs 24+16=40

therefore the mass produced is 0.3887moles×40=15.548grams

(d) we first find the number of moles of MgO in 40.3 grams

number of moles=mass/RFM

=40.3g/40= 1.0075moles

if 2 moles of MgO give 1204 kJ then decomposing 1.0075 moles requires

(1.0075 moles×1204kJ)/2=606.515kJ
