Explanation:
There are two direct factors that affect solubility: temperature and pressure. Temperature affects the solubility of both solids and gases, but pressure only affects the solubility of gases.
Answer:
because no chemical change is happening

Explanation:
A)
Remember that positive number superscripts mean electrons lack and negative numbers mean electrons 'excess' (if we compare it with the neutral element). So, for the case of Fe2+ which is converted to Fe3+, we know that in Fe2+ there is a two electrons lack, while in Fe3+ there is a 3 electrons lack; it means that Fe2+ was converted to Fe3+ but releasing one electron:
⇒
The same analysis is applied to Br2; Br2 is a molecule which is said to have a zero superscript because it is an apolar covalent bond; and it is converted to Br-, which, according to what I wrote above, means that there is a one electron excess. So, Br2 must have received an electron in order to change to Br-; but Br2 can't change to Br- as simple as that because Br2 is a molecule, not an atom; it is a molecule that has two Br atoms, so, Br2 must give two Br- ions as products, but receiving one electron for each one:
⇒
b)
Applying the same, in Mg2+ there is a 2 electrons lack, and in Mg is not electron lack (its superscript is zero), so Mg must have released two electrons in order to change to Mg2+:
⇒
Cr3+ has a 3 electrons lack, and Cr2+ a two electrons one, so, Cr3+ must receive an electron to convert to Cr2+:
⇒
This is a tricky question. All that matters are ratios of percentages, not percentages themselves. So no one should directly compare 27.2 with 42.9. We must and shall compare the ratios (27.2 to 72.8) and (42.9 to 57.1).
Take them both down to 1 to and see what happens.
Working out the formulas knowing atomic masses is a bit beside the point; this is how people first DISCOVERED the idea of atomic mass.
A
Carbon Oxygen
27.2g 72.8g (100-27.2)
Moles 27.2/12 72.8/16
2.27 4.55
Ratio 1 2
Do the same with the other
Answer: Electronegativity increases as the size of an atom decrease.
Explanation: Electronegativity is the measure of the ability of an atom in a bond to attract electrons to itself.
Electronegativity increases across a period and decreases down a group.
Towards the left of the table, valence shells are less than half full, so these atoms (metals) tend
to lose electrons and have low electronegativity. Towards the right of the table, valence shells are more than half full, so these atoms (nonmetals) tend to gain electrons and have high electronegativity.
Down a group, the number of energy levels (n) increases, and so does the distance between the nucleus and the outermost orbital. The increased distance and the increased shielding weaken the nuclear attraction, and so an atom can’t attract electrons as strongly.
