Answer:
metal atoms lose electrons to form positive ions (cations)
Explanation:
metal atoms lose electrons to form positive ions (cations ) non-metal atoms gain electrons to form negative ions (anions )
Answer:
Tamoxifen is an irreversible, competitive inhibitor.
Explanation:
In order to binds to the active site of the estrogen receptor protein, tamoxifen have to compete with the other chemical compound, and inhibits the estrogen release, so it is a competitive inhibitor. Then, you said that when tamoxifen binds to the receptor, the protein is permanently deactivated, so it is also irreversible.
Lets assume x volume of NaOH and x volume of HCl are added together.
NaOH ---> Na⁺ + OH⁻
NaOH is a strong base therefore it completely ionizes and releases OH⁻ ions into the medium
HCl ---> H⁺ + Cl⁻
HCl is a strong base and completely ionizes and releases H⁺ ions in to the medium. number of NaOH moles in 1 L - 0.1 mol
Therefore in x L - 0.1 /1 * x = 0.1x moles of NaOH present
Similarly in HCl x L contains - 0.1x moles of HCl
H⁺ + OH⁻ ---> H₂O
Due to complete ionisation, 0.1x moles of H⁺ ions and 0.1x moles of OH⁻ ions react to form 0.1x moles of H₂O. Therefore all H⁺ and OH⁻are completely used up and yield water molecules.
Then at this point the H⁺ and OH⁻ ions in the medium come from the weak dissociation of water. This is equivalent to 1 x 10⁻⁷M
pH = -log [H⁺]
pH = -log [10⁻⁷]
pH = 7
pH is therefore equals to 7 which means the solution is neutral
The substance that releases the greatest amount of ions will have the greatest attractive forces within its solution, resulting in a reduced freezing point.
K₂SO₄ yields 3 ions
NH₄I yields 2 ions
CoCl₃ yields 4 ions
Freezing points:
CoCl₃ < K₂SO₄ < NH₄I
