Answer:
Option B
Explanation:
Magnesium is an alkali earth metal and chlorine is a nonmetal. Due to this, and their differences in electronegativity, the elements form an ionic bond. Since magnesium has two valence electrons, it will give them up to two chlorine atoms (which has 7 valence electrons), which needs them to complete its octet. From this, magnesium forms a cation, and will have the ion formula Mg(2+). The two chlorine atoms form anions, and will have the ion formula Cl(1-).
Terms:
- Cation: a positively charged ion
- Anion: a negatively charge ion.
- Electronegativity: the tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself.
Answer:
300 mL
Explanation:
the unit formula of calcium phosphate is Ca3(PO4)2
molar mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = (3×40 + 2×31 + 8×16) g/mol = 310 g/mol
n = m/M = 35 g/(310 g/mol)
c = n/V
V = n/c = [35 g/(310 g/mol)]/0.375 mol/L
V = 0.30 L = 300 mL
i think that the answer is d. millions of small rocky objects
Answer:
Explanation:
We are asked to find how many moles are in 4.8 × 10²³ fluorine atoms. We convert atoms to moles using Avogadro's Number or 6.022 × 10²³. This is the number of particles (atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance. In this case, the particles are atoms of fluorine.
We will convert using dimensional analysis and set up a ratio using Avogadro's Number.
We are converting 4.8 × 10²³ fluorine atoms to moles, so we multiply the ratio by this number.
Flip the ratio so the units of atoms of fluorine cancel each other out.
Condense into 1 fraction.
Divide.
The original measurement of atoms has 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the hundredths place. The 7 in the thousandths tells us to round the 9 in the hundredths place up to a 0. Then, we also have to round the 7 in the tenths place up to an 8.
4.8 × 10²³ fluorine atoms are equal to <u>0.80 moles of fluorine.</u>
