The model is made of an ionic compound of aluminum and chlorine. Aluminum has an oxidation number of 3 and chlorine has an oxidation number of -1. Based on the evidence, predict the chemical formula, chemical name and properties of the compound between aluminum and chlorine.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

                    Chemical Formula: AlCl₃

                    Chemical Name: Aluminium Chloride

                    Properties are given below.

Explanation:

Chemical Formula:

                              Chemical formula depicts the total number of elemants forming a particular compound. It is common that all compounds are neutral in nature despite of the internal charges they contain. As given Aluminium has a + 3 charge while Chlorine has a -1 charge, therefore, to make a neutral compound we will require 3 Cl⁻ ions to neutralize one Al³⁺ ion hence, the chemical formula will be AlCl₃.

Chemical Name:

                              According to rules ionic compounds are named by naming the positive part first followed by negative part. In this case Al³⁺ being is name d first followed by Cl⁻ (remember the -ine in anions is replaced by -ide) hence, this compound will be name as Aluminium Chloride.

Properties:

                 Few physical and chemical properties of AlCl₃ are;

 (i) It melts at 192.4 °C

 (ii) Highly Soluble in water

 (iii) It has a density of  2.48 g/cm³

 (iv) Poor conductor of electricity

 (v) It is used as catalyst in many organic reactions

 (vi) Reacts with silver nitrate to form silver chloride and Aluminium Nitrate

Which soil horizon contains a layer of partially weathered or unweathered rock? A. E
B. R
C. O
D. C

Answers

Answer:

B.  R

Explanation:

A layer of partially weathered or unweathered rock is present in R soil horizon

Answer: Option (B)

Explanation: The R-layer represents the unweathered rocks that are located below the surface and is the lowest layer in the soil profile. Here, hard rocks are found which are difficult to break, and are breakable with heavy machineries only. This R-layer makes the foundation of the soil profile that supports the entire overlying series of layers.

Thus, the correct answer is option (B).

What is the difference between conduction and convection?

Answers

These are both ways heat travel. Conduction is when something is touching something i.e. When you touch a hot pan. Convection is heat rising, then cooling so it sinks and heats back up and rises again repetitively i.e. A convection oven (think circulation of heat)
CONVECTION is the transfer of heat from high temperature to low temperature with movement of mass or medium due to temperature difference in the region. Although, convection is a bit similar to conduction, but convection involves movement of substances. Such as wind system in our planet. Air moves due to temperature difference in every part of our planet. Then, CONDUCTION is the transfer of heat, of course from high temperature to low temperature when two objects (such as metals) are in direct contact (without the movement of metals).

Which solution has the greater concentration?A. 0.500 mole LiCl dissolved in 250 ml solution

B. 0.250 mole LiCl dissolved in 250 ml of solution

C. Both the same

Answers

The higher concentrated solution is 0.250 mole LiCl dissolved in 250 ml of solution

( B).0.250mole of LiCl diluted in 250ml solution

Explanation:

Procedure to find the intensity of the solution:

To find the intensity of the solution, we have to use the following formula

M1V1=M2V2

250mL of a 0.500 M aqueous solution of LiCl is diluted with water

M1V1=(250) * (0.500)=125M

250 ml of a 0.250M aqueous solution of LiCl is diluted with water

M2V2=(250) * (0.250)=62.5M

Thus the PH level of a solution increases from ascending order, Therefore the Solution with 62.5M is a higher concentration than that of the solution with 125M.
