what is the mass of zinc required to combine with 0.5 mol of chlorine to produce zinc chloride, ZnCl^2 |
|
Answer» ong>Explanation: When forming an ion, a zinc atom loses its TWO valence ELECTRONS, becoming a Zn2+ ion. The chlorine atom has seven valence electrons, and will gain one valence electron to form a chloride ion, Cl1- . ... Therefore, two chloride IONS, Cl1- MUST bond with one zinc ion, Zn2+ . |
