Calcium ions have oxidation state 2+ => Ca (2+).

Bromime ions (bromide) have oxidation state 1- => Br (-).

So, to be neutral the compound has to have two Br (-) ions per each Ca(2+) ion.

That is represented in the chemical formula as Ca Br2, where the number 2 to the right of Br is a subscript meaning that there are two atoms of Br per each atom of Ca (the lack of subscript means 1 atom).

Answer: Ca Br2.

The option that qualifies as a chemical formula of Ca2 and Br- would be CaBr2, the second option.

How much heat is released during the formation of 3.18 mol HCl(g) in this reaction: H2(g)+Cl2(g) → 2HCl(g) with a H of -184.6 kJ

Vikentia [17]

The given thermochemical reaction is between hydrogen gas and chlorine gas to form hydrogen chloride.

This can be represented as:

$H_{2}(g)+Cl_{2}(g)-->2HCl(g)$ Δ $H_{reaction}^{0}$ =-184.6 kJ/mol

So when two moles of HCl is formed, 184.6 kJ of energy is released.

Calculating the heat released when 3.18 mol HCl (g) is formed in the reaction:

$3.18 molHCl*\frac{184.6kJ}{2molHCl} =293.5 kJ$

Therefore, 293.5 kJ of heat is released when 3.18 mol HCl is formed in the reaction between hydrogen and chlorine.

Δs is negative for the reaction __________.

pickupchik [31]

ΔS =S(products) -S(reactants)

Where ΔS is the change of entropy in a reactions

a. ΔS = (2) - (2+1) = -1
b. ΔS = (1+1) -(1) = 1
c. ΔS = (1+2) - (1) = 2
d. ΔS = (2) - (2+1) = -1
e. ΔS = (1) - (1) = 0

ΔS is negative for reaction a. and d.
