Covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between two nonmetals.
Potassium oxide has the antifluorite structure. The antifluorite structure have compounds with the stoichiometry X₂Y, where X is the cation and Y is the anion. In the antifluorite structure <span>positions of the </span>cations<span> and </span>anions<span> are reversed relative to their positions in calcium fluoride.</span>
Potassium ions coordinated to 4 oxide ions, <span>potassium ions are all in the tetrahedral holes.</span>
Answer:
1.70
Explanation:
The molar mass of perchloric acid is 100.46 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 484 mg (0.484 g) are:
0.484 g × (1 mol/100.46 g) = 4.82 × 10⁻³ mol
4.82 × 10⁻³ moles are dissolved in 240 mL (0.240 L) of solution. The molar concentration of perchloric acid is:
4.82 × 10⁻³ mol/0.240 L = 0.0201 M
Perchloric acid is a strong monoprotic acid, that is, it dissociates completely, so [H⁺] = 0.0201 M.
The pH is:
pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 0.0201 = 1.70
