Question 13 (1 point)

Which statement best describes how many chlorine atoms are needed when making

Aluminum chloride?

5

3 chlorine atoms are needed because each chlorine atom accepts one of

Aluminum three valence electrons to obtain a full octet and makes chlorine a

negatively charged anion

9

12

3 chlorine atoms are needed because each chlorine atom accepts one of

Aluminums three valence electrons to obtain a full octet and makes chlorine a

positively charged anion

15

1 chlorine atom is needed because chlorine accepts one electron from

Aluminum to obtain a full octet and makes chlorine a negatively charged anion.

01 chlorine atom is needed because chlorine accepts one electron from

Lontot and molec chlorine positively charged cation

3 chlorine atoms are needed because each chlorine atom accepts one of  Aluminum three valence electrons to obtain a full octet and makes chlorine a  negatively charged anion

Explanation:

How many chlorine atoms are needed when making Aluminium Chloride?

The formular for aluminium chloride is given as; AlCl3

In the compound, Aluminium has a valency of +3 and the three chlorine atoms each have a valency of +1 to make the compound a neutral compound.

That meas we can represent AlCl3 as Al³⁺ and 3Cl⁻

The correct statement is;

3 chlorine atoms are needed because each chlorine atom accepts one of  Aluminum three valence electrons to obtain a full octet and makes chlorine a  negatively charged anion

warm front forms when a moist, warm air mass slides up and over a cold air mass. as the warm air mass rises, it condenses into a broad area of clouds. a warm front brings gentle rain or light snow, followed by warmer, milder weather.
