There are two big advantages of using molarity to express concentration. The first advantage is that it's easy and convenient to use because the solute may be measured in grams, converted into moles, and mixed with a volume.
The second advantage is that the sum of the molar concentrations is the total molar concentration. This permits calculations of density and ionic strength
Answer: 8 electrons
Explanation: Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom and they are important in chemical reactions.
Atoms are <em>happy</em> when they follow the octet rule which states that 2 electrons can go in the first shell and 8 electrons can go in the other shells.
Electrons are happy when they have a full outer shell which usually needs to be 8 electrons. However, some of the smaller elements like helium are happy because they can hold a max of 2 electrons and helium has 2 electrons since it has 2 protons in its core as well as 2 electrons in its energy levels.
Answer:
0.282 M
General Formulas and Concepts:
<u>Chemistry - Solutions</u>
- Reading a Periodic Table
- Using Dimensional Analysis
- Molarity = moles of solute / liters of solution
Explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
5.85 g KI
0.125 L
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
Molar Mass of K - 39.10 g/mol
Molar Mass of I - 126.90 g/mol
Molar Mass of KI - 39.10 + 126.90 = 166 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Convert</u>
<u />
= 0.035241 mol KI
<u>Step 4: Find Molarity</u>
M = 0.035241 mol KI / 0.125 L
M = 0.281928
<u>Step 5: Check</u>
<em>We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.</em>
0.281928 M ≈ 0.282 M
I do believe the answer is A. I'm sure
