When an ionic solid is added into a solvent, you can see that the ionic solid dissociates into its respective cations and anions

. The solvent molecules immediately cluster around the ions. This is known as solvation. When the solvent is water, the solvation process is called hydration. Dissolution and hydration occur simultaneously, and salt is said to be dissolved in water. You can observe that some of the ions dissolved in the solution recrystallize or deposit to form the solid salt. When the rate of dissolution equals the rate of recrystallization (deposition), dynamic equilibrium is reached.

The order of the steps, from first to last, is as follows based on the information in the question:

1. Salt is broken down into cations and anions.

2. Anion hydration.

3. Cation hydration.

4. Cations and anions that have been dissolved start to settle as a solid salt.

5. The rate of dissolution and recrystallization are equal.

Without hydration of the ions, the cation and anion cannot get separated. The three processes of ion dissociation, cation hydration, and anion hydration must all take place at once.

<h3>Why water is an effective solvent?</h3>

Water is a great solvent that can dissolve a wide variety of compounds due to its polarity and capacity to create hydrogen bonds.

Where is the fulcrum of this lever? circle and label its location on the diagram above
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) A fulcrum is a pivot point that plays a central role (not necessarily located at the center) in a lever. The fulcrum of the attached picture has been circled (in blue).

2) The object placed on this lever's measurement tray is balanced by placing it at the center of the tray. This is the standard way of placing objects on any balance.

which of the following correctly identifies the composition of an oxygen atom? A.8 protons, 8 electrons, and 8 neutrons. B.6 pro
Ulleksa [173]
<span>You can answer this question by getting the atomic number and atomic mass of Oxygen from a periodic table. There you will find that the atomic number is 8, that means, by definition, that it has 8 protons. This is, because atomic number is defined as the number of protons of an element. Given that the atom is neutral, that implies that the atoms have the same number of electrons than protons. So you already know that the oxygen atoms has 8 protons and 8 electrons. The number of neutrons can vary, which is what defines the isotopes. Given that the atomic mass of oxygen is 15.999, that means that most atoms of oxygen has 8 neutrons (8 protons +8 neutrons = 16 atomic mass). But you can not be sure that a specific atom of oxygen has 8 neutrons, nevertheless, given that the other options are discarded (because they do not have 8 protons and 8 electrons), the only correct answer is the option A. 8 protons, 8 electrons, and 8 neutrons.</span>

At a certain temperature, 4.0 mol NH3 is introduced into a 2.0 L container, and the NH3 partially dissociates by the reaction. 2
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

K = 3.37

Explanation:

2 NH₃(g) → N₂(g)  + 3H₂(g)

Initially we have 4 mol of ammonia, and in equilibrium we have 2 moles, so we have to think, that 2 moles have been reacted (4-2).

              2 NH₃(g)    →    N₂(g)  + 3H₂(g)

Initally       4moles             -            -

React        2moles           2m   +   3m

Eq             2 moles          2m        3m

We had produced 2 moles of nitrogen and 3 mol of H₂ (ratio is 2:3)

The expression for K is:  ( [H₂]³ . [N₂] ) / [NH₃]²

We have to divide the concentration /2L, cause we need MOLARITY to calculate K (mol/L)

K = ( (2m/2L) . (3m/2L)³ ) / (2m/2L)²

K = 27/8 / 1 → 3.37
