Ammonium hydroxide is considered a weak base because it produces few hydroxide ions in aqueous solution. (Option a)

<h3>Strength of electrolytes</h3>
  • Strong electrolytes: are completely ionized in aqueous solution.
  • Weak electrolytes: are partially ionized in aqueous solution.

Let's consider the ionization of ammonium hydroxide, which is a weak base.

NH₄OH ⇄ NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

Why is it considered a weak base?

a. it produces few hydroxide ions in aqueous solution. Yes, since it dissociates partially.

b. it produces few hydrogen ions in aqueous solution. No, since it does not produce hydrogen ions.

c. it does not conduct electricity in aqueous solution. No, since it conducts electricity, although poorly.

d. it will not take part in a neutralization reaction. No, since it will be neutralized by acids.

Ammonium hydroxide is considered a weak base because it produces few hydroxide ions in aqueous solution.

The value of Zeff for a valence electron in an atom of silicon is?
lutik1710 [3]

Zeff is the effective nuclear charge wherein, Z resembles the number of protons in the nucleus while S corresponds to the number of non-valence electrons.

Zeff = Z - S

Silicon has 14 protons; its electron configuration is [Ne] 3s2 3p2. Its non-valence electrons is in the n = 1 and n =2 shells. There are 2 electrons in n = 1 and 8 in n = 2, so there are a total of 10 non-valence electron.

<span><span>Z<span>eff</span></span>= 14−10= 4</span>

So, the answer is 4.

Why do some atoms form positive ions and others form negative ions?
Scrat [10]
It is energetically favorable for all atoms to have a complete outer electron shell. Loosely, the atoms on the left hand side of the periodic table only have a few extra electrons in their outer shell so it is energetically favorable for them to lose them. The atoms on the right hand side of the periodic table almost have enough electrons in their outer shell and so they have a tendency to gain them. Once electrons have left an electron shell, an atom will have a positive charge because it has more protons (positive charges) than electrons (negative charges). Similarly, an electron which has gained electrons to complete its outer shell will have a negative charge because it now has more electrons (negative charge) than protons (positive charge).

Of the molecules below, the bond in __________ is the most polar. hbr hi hcl hf
Black_prince [1.1K]
<span>There's a trend in electronegativity. The bottom left of periodic table is the lowest (0.7) and the upper right is the highest (4.0). The most polar is the greatest difference in electronegavity. hbr- 1~ , hi- 0.5~ ,hcl - 1.3~ , hf-1.8 so,hf is the answer</span>
