What is an ion and how is it formed?

Chemistry
1 answer:
grin007 [14]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: Ions are an atom or molecule with a net electric charge due to the loss or gain of one or more electrons. They are formed when atoms lose or gain electrons in order to fulfill the octet rule and have full outer valence electron shells.

Explanation:

When they lose electrons, they become positively charged and are named cations. When they gain electrons, they are negatively charged and are named anions.

The permanent electric dipole moment of the water molecule 1H2O2 is 6.2 * 10-30 C m. What is the maximum possible torque on a wa
stellarik [79]

Answer:

3.1 x 10⁻²¹ Nm

Explanation:  

When placed in an external electric filed, an electric dipole experiences a torque. and this torque is represented mathematically with the equation:

torque (τ) = dipole moment vector (P) x electric field vector (E)

τ = P. E . sin θ

where θ is the angle between the water molecule and the electric field, which in this case is 90° (because this is where the torque is maximum)

τ = 6.2x10⁻³⁰Cm . 5.0x10⁸ N/C . sin90

τ = 6.2x10⁻³⁰Cm . 5.0x10⁸ N/C . 1

solve for τ

τ = 3.1 x 10⁻²¹ Nm

the maximum possible torque on the water molecule is therefore 3.1 x 10⁻²¹ Nm

Answer: HOPE THIS HELPED! :D

Water vapor is the most abundant and dominant GHG in the atmosphere. Its concentration depends on temperature and other meteorological conditions, and not directly upon human activities.

What temperature in degrees c is the freezing point of water?
guajiro [1.7K]
The freezing point of water is 0° C. The Celsius (centigrade) scale is based off of water, with the freezing point at 0° and the boiling point at 100°. (Google will probably tell you this in 10 seconds, then you wouldn't have had to wait 7 hours!)
