Given :
A certain compound contains 4.0 g of calcium and 7.1 g of chlorine.
Its relative molecular mass is 111.
To Find :
Its empirical and molecular formulas.
Solution :
Moles of calcium , 
.
Moles of chlorine , 
.
The ratio calcium and chlorine is 1 : 2 .
So , the empirical formula is 
.
Now , molecular mass of is :
So , 
Therefore , the molecular formula is also .
Hence , this is the required solution .
Answer: The number of protons
Explanation:
Redox reactions are those <u>chemical reactions that involve the transfer of electrons between reactants</u>, altering the <em>oxidation state</em> of their elements.
In this type of reactions an element releases electrons that another element accepts, so there is a net transfer of charge.
When balancing redox reactions, not only must the chemical elements in the reactants and products be equalized (by the <em>law of conservation of the mass</em>), but also the charged that is transferred in the process must be balanced, since <u>the electrons that are lost in oxidation are the same as those that are gained in reduction (</u><em>law of conservation of charge:</em> <em>there is no destruction or net creation of electric charge</em>).
