Aluminum is a metal and its oxidation state is +3. That means that it may lose three electrons and form cation Al +3. So the correct answer is option A. threee electrons are lost creating Al +3.

You can base your answer in the fact is in the group 13, that means that it has 3 electrons in its valence shell. Those are the three electrons that it can lose to form Al +3.

Also, you can search for the atomic number and do its electron configuration.

Z Al = 13 => 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p1. So, the electrons 3s2 3p1 are the three electrons that it can lose to form Al +3.

Three electrons are lost, creating AL+3! (So the correct answer is A.)

I can confirm this because I took the test! :D

Hope that helped!

Cheers, mate!

If a 300.0 ml sample of a gas is heated at constant pressure from 25.0ºc to 55.0ºc, its new volume is _____ ml?
jekas [21]

 The new  volume is    330.2 ml


<u><em>calculation</em></u>

 The new  volume is  calculated using  the Charles  law formula

that is  V1/T1= V2/T2

where T1= 25.0  c  into kelvin  =  25 +273  = 298 K

         V1=  300.0 ml

       T2  = 55.0  c  into kelvin = 273   +55  =328  K

      V2 =  ? ml


make V2  the   subject of the formula  by  multiplying  both side by T2

V2= V1T2/ T1

V2 =[ (300.0 ml x 328 k)  / 298 k}  = 330.2 ml

What is the concentration of an alcl3 solution if 150. ml of the solution contains 550. mg of cl- ion?
valina [46]

The concentration of AlCl3 solution if 150 ml of the solution contains 550 mg of cl- ion is 0.0344 M


calculation


concentration = moles /volume in liters


volume in liters = 150 /1000= 0.15 L


number of moles calculation

write the equation for dissociation of Al2Cl3

that is AlCl3 ⇔ Al^3+ + 3 Cl ^-


find the moles of Cl^- formed

moles =mass/molar mass

mass in grams= 550/ 1000 =0.55 grams

molar mass of Cl^- =35.5 g/mol


moles is therefore= 0.55/35.5 =0.0155 moles


by use of mole ration betweem AlCl3 to Cl^- which is 1:3 the moles of AlCl3 is =0.0155 x 1/3= 5.167 x10^-3 moles



concentration of AlCl3 is therefore= 5.167 x10^-3/ 0.15 =0.0344 M

Molecular bromine is 24 percent dissociated at 1600 k and 1.00 bar in the equilibrium br2 (
dlinn [17]
Br2 == 2Br

24% dissociated => n total moles, 0.24 mol*n of Br, and 0.76*n mol of Br2

=> partial pressure of Br, P Br = 0.24 bar, and
     partical pressure of Br2, P Br2 = 0.76 bar

kp = (P Br)^2 / P Br2 = (0.24)^2 / 0.76 = 0.0758

10. A solution contains 130 grams of KNO3 dissolved in 100 grams of water When 3 more grams of KNO3 is added, none of it dissolv
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

We will check the solubility graph for potassium nitrate,  KNO 3. Based on the graph it can be said that the temperature of solution when 130 grams of KNO3 dissolves in 100 grams of water is near to 65 degree Celsius. Now if three grams of solute is increased then the temperature of the solution will increase by a degree or so and hence the most probable temperature would be 68 degree Celsius.

Hence, option B is correct
