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

If 65.5 moles of an ideal gas is at 9.15 atm at 50.30 °C, what is the volume of the gas?

qwelly [4]

To calculate for the volume, we need a relation to relate the number of moles (n), pressure (P), and temperature (T) with volume (V). For simplification, we assume the gas is an ideal gas. So, we use PV=nRT.

PV = nRT where R is the universal gas constant
V = nRT / P
V = 65.5 ( 0.08205 ) (273.15 + 50.30) / 9.15
V = 189.98 L

Boiling point of a solution formed when 15.2 grams of CaCl2 dissolves in 57.0 g of water. kB= 0.512 c/m.

Nookie1986 [14]

100.133 degree celsius is the boiling point of the solution formed when 15.2 grams of CaCl2 dissolves in 57.0 g of water.

Explanation:

Balanced eaquation for the reaction

CaCl2 + 2H20 ⇒ Ca(OH)2 + HCl

given:

mass of CaCl2 = 15.2 grams

mass of the solution = 57 grams

Kb (molal elevation constant) = 0.512 c/m

i = vont hoff factor is 1 as 1 mole of the substance is given as product.

Molality is calculated as:

molality = $\frac{grams of solute}{grams of solution}$

= $\frac{15.2}{57}$

= 0.26 M

Boiling point is calculated as:

ΔT = i x Kb x M

= 1 x 0.512 x 0.26

= 0.133 degrees

The boiling point of the solution will be:

100 degrees + 0.133 degrees (100 degrees is the boiling point of water)

= 100.133 degree celcius is the boiling point of mixture formed.
