In terms of electron transfer describe what happens when one atom of calcium reacts with two atoms of chlorine and give the ions that are formed.

When these atoms react together Calcium chloride, CaCl2, is formed. Calcium atoms have two electrons in their outer shell, which can be determined from the fact they are in group 2 of the perio...

Explain what is meant by Enthalpy

In nature, when 2 elements react, energy is taken in to break bonds and energy is given out to form new bonds. The net change in heat energy during a reaction at constant pressure is called the enthalpy c...

Explain the 3 pieces of evidence that disprove Kekule's model of benzene.

Kekulé's model of benzene is that it has 3 double bonds, in a ring of 6 carbons.
One - Benzene isn't very reactive, so if Kekulé's model were to be correct, there would be 3 double bonds in benzene, ...

2HCl (aq)+CaCO3 (s)->H20(l)+CaCl2(aq)+CO2(g). If using 40cm^3 of 2.5mol.dm^-3 Hcl and 5.67g of CaCO3, determine the limiting reagent and how much CO2(g) could be theoretically produced by this reaction.

First, we have to convert the starting measurements for the HCl and CaCO3 content into moles so we can compare the ratios to the formula. 40cm^3=0.04dm^30.04dm^32.5mol.dm^-3=0.1 moles of HClmass/molar...

How do endothermic and exothermic reactions differ?

Endothermic reactions take in heat from the surroundings, whereas exothermic reactions release heat to the surroundings. Exothermic reactions release heat as the energy released from the bonds being made ...
