MgCl2 plus H2O why is it a good conductor?
Because this reaction results in a solution containing free ions; a strong strong acid (due to the Cl) and a strong base (due to the Mg). Strong acids and strong bases are good conductors. (Do note that the general solution is pretty much neutral, just slightly acidic as Cl forms a stronger acid than the base formed by Mg) Regards, Zananok
What elements belong to the halogen family?
The halogens are: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At).They are the 2nd column from the right in the Periodic Table.fluorineChlorine, bromine, fluorine, iodine
Is the ionic bond stronger in NaCl or calcium carbonate?
Calcium Carbonate. Simple test, NaCl Dissociates in water, CaCO3 does not
What equation explains the solubility of p-chlorophenol in 15 percent sodium hydroxide?
p-chlorophenol forms salt with a base which is soluble in water. Cl-C6H4-OH + NaOH = Cl-C6H4-O-Na+ + H2O
Is hydrogen necessary in a hydrogen bond?
Yes,hydrogen is very essential.Hydrogen should be bound to O or F or N or may be Cl.
Is Cl a stronger base than Br?
yes it is, because HBr is a stronger acid than HCl, therfore, HBr will have a weaker conjugate base, Br, than HCl, Cl
Is Cl or Br a stronger base?
They are both strong acids/weak bases however Br is the stronger acid and by that definition the weaker base.
PF3Cl2 is a nonpolar molecule What is the f-p-f bond angle cl-p-cl angle bond and the f-p-cl angle bond?
the f-p-f bond angle is 120the cl -p-cl bond angle is 180and the f - p - cl bond angle is 90
Why F-F bond is weaker than Cl-Cl bond?
bond energy (in kJ/mol) F-F:158 Cl-Cl: 244 Hence, in order of decreasing bond strength: Cl-Cl => => (F-F) => Fluorine is an anomaly. Bond strength decreases from chlorine to iodine as down the group, the atomic size becomes larger and thus the valence electron orbitals become more diffused, causing the overlap of orbitals to become less effective. Therefore the halogen-halogen bond becomes weaker. Fluorine is an exception due to its extremely small size. The F-F bond length is so short that the lone pairs of electrons on the fluorine atoms repel each other and weakens the F-F bond. I hope that answers your question.
What bonds is a polar bond there may be more than one f-f h-h p-s h-f cl-cl p-cl?
P-S , H-F, P-Cl
What are the example of single bonds?
F-F Cl-Cl or any other halogen-halogen ;halogen- alkaline metal Na-Cl
Is Cl acid or base?
Base
Why are hydrogen bonds stronger?
least electronegative hydrogen and most electronegative F O N CL Br JOIN TOGETHER AND form a strong bond
Br you N Cl H O F?
Br I N Cl H O F
Why phenol chloride is more acidic in nature than phenol flouride?
in Cl the resonance occurs from 3p orbitals but in F resonance occurs from 2p orbitals due this reason F increase electron density in conjugate base more as compare to Cl .
Identify the smaller ion F or Cl?
F
What is the oxidation number of Cl in ClF3?
Total electrons --> 7+42-1=48 Cl as a central atom One lone pair on Cl (on the side) 4 F's up and down and the other two on the opposite side of lone pair. F I :- Cl - F - F I F This is the best I can do with plain text.
