Answer:

Most metals have luster which means they reflect light

Explanation:

When light, which is made up of energetic photons, comes in contact with the surface of a metal, it is absorbed due to the corresponding energy gaps present between the metal orbital. The absorbed photons results in the raising of the energy levels of electrons within an atom of the metal which later drop back to a lower energy level and re-emit the photons which can now be observed as the metallic luster.

An analytical chemist is titrating of a solution of propionic acid with a solution of 224.9 ml of a 0.6100M solution of propioni

Svetllana [295]

Answer: The pH of acid solution is 4.58

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$ .....(1)

For KOH:

Molarity of KOH solution = 1.1000 M

Volume of solution = 41.04 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$1.1000M=\frac{\text{Moles of KOH}\times 1000}{41.04}\\\\\text{Moles of KOH}=\frac{1.1000\times 41.04}{1000}=0.04514mol$

For propanoic acid:

Molarity of propanoic acid solution = 0.6100 M

Volume of solution = 224.9 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.6100M=\frac{\text{Moles of propanoic acid}\times 1000}{224.9}\\\\\text{Moles of propanoic acid}=\frac{0.6100\times 224.9}{1000}=0.1372mol$

The chemical reaction for propanoic acid and KOH follows the equation:

$C_2H_5COOH+KOH\rightarrow C_2H_5COOK+H_2O$

Initial: 0.1372 0.04514

Final: 0.09206 - 0.04514

Total volume of solution = [224.9 + 41.04] mL = 265.94 mL = 0.26594 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{salt}]}{[acid]})$

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[C_2H_5COOK]}{[C_2H_5COOH]})$

We are given:

$pK_a$ = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of propanoic acid = 4.89

$[C_2H_5COOK]=\frac{0.04514}{0.26594}$

$[C_2H_5COOH]=\frac{0.09206}{0.26594}$

pH = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$pH=4.89+\log(\frac{(0.04514/0.26594)}{(0.09206/0.26594)})\\\\pH=4.58$

Hence, the pH of acid solution is 4.58

What is the relationship between metals and the number of electrons in the outer level?

gayaneshka [121]

Elements in group 1-2, 13-18, the number of valence electrons is related to the group number. For example, in the first group, the alkali metals there is one valence electron, however in group 13, there are 3 valence electrons. Valence electrons are also known as the outershell electrons.

When an atom gains electrons, it is called a (an) _____ and has a ______ charge.

jolli1 [7]

Answer:

When an atom gains/loses an electron, the atom becomes charged, and is called an ion. Gaining an electron results in a negative charge, so the atom is an anion
