Answer: 1: 1

Explanation:

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. This bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal.

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.

Here potassium forms a cation $K^+$ ion by loss of one electron and bromine forms an anion $Br^-$ by gain of one electron.Thus one $K^+$ combine with one $Br^-$ to form neutral $KBr$ .

Which of the following can be mixed in solution with H₂CO3 to make a buffer?OA. Na₂CO3OB. HFOC. NH3OD. NaHCO3

masha68 [24]

A buffer system usually will need a weak acid, like H2CO3, which is carbonic acid, and a strong base, and the only compound that could figure a fairly strong base among the options given is Na2CO3. NH3 and NaHCO3 are weak bases and HF is a strong acid. Therefore the best answer will be letter A

Explain examples of a physical and chemical change of matter

monitta

HEY DEAR..

PHYSICAL CHANGE

Those Changes in which no new substances are formed are called physical changes. it is a temporary changes which can be reversed easily to form the original substance.

Example:- Melting of ice , Making a solution, Glowing of an electric bulb , freezing of water etc.

CHEMICAL CHANGE

Those changes in which new substances are formed are called chemical changes. it means it is permanent changes which are usually irreversible.

Example:- Burning of charcoal, fuels and cutting of trees, even digestion of food is in chemical change.

Answer:

The correct answer is - 14.

Explanation:

In the given molecular formula of the aluminum sulphite which is Al2(SO3)3, this molecular formula there different type of elements are bonded together to form this compound each element has a specific number of atoms present. This compound has three elements that are aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen and the atoms are present are:

Al = 2 atoms represented by subscript

S = 3 atoms represented as whole subscripts of sulfite

O = 9 atoms 3 inside bracket and 3 outside of bracket that multiplies.

Thus, total number of atoms are 2+3+9 = 14

Calculate the amount of water required to prepare 500g of 2.5% solution of sugar.

Snowcat [4.5K]

(i) We start by calculating the mass of sugar in the solution:

mass of sugar = concentration × solution mass

mass of sugar = 2.5/100 × 500 = 12.5 g

Then now we can calculate the amount of water:

solution mass = mass of sugar + mass of water

mass of water = solution mass - mass of sugar

mass of water = 500 - 12.5 = 487.5 g

(ii) We use the following reasoning:

If 500 g solution contains 12.5 g sugar

Then X g solution contains 75 g sugar

X=(500×75)/12.5 = 3000 g solution

Now to get the amount of solution in liters we use density (we assume that is equal to 1):

Density = mass / volume

Volume = mass / density

Volume = 3000 / 1 = 3000 liters of sugar solution
