By either gaining or losing an electron. 

So for the halogens (group 17) they have 7 valence electrons so they need one more to have a full outer shell. They will form a bond with another element that can give an electron. Typically a halogen will bond with an alkaline metal because they have 1 valence electron in their outer shells. This sharing of electrons (covalent bond) satisfies both elements, giving them full outer shells.

A hot air balloon contains 40.0 liters of helium gas at 203 kilopascals. What will be the volume of the helium when the balloon
Anika [276]

<span>1.    </span>To solve this we assume that the gas is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant temperature and number of moles of the gas the product of PV is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

P1V1 =P2V2

V2 = P1 x V1 / P2

 V2 = 203 x 40.0 / 35.0

 V2 =232 L

In a solution of H2SO4, rank the concentration of H2SO4, H+, SO42- from highest concentration to lowest concentration.
Softa [21]

Answer:

  • [H⁺] > [SO₄²⁻] > [H₂SO₄]

Explanation:

H₂SO₄ is a strong acid, which means that most of it ionizes in aqueous solution.

Since it is a diprotic acid (two hydrogen ions) its ionization occurs in two steps:

  • H₂SO₄ (aq) → H⁺(aq) + HSO₄⁻(aq)

  • HSO₄⁻ (aq) → H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)

Thus, almost all H₂SO₄ has ionized and its final concentration is almost nothing.

After the first ionization, the conentrations of H⁺(aq) and HSO₄⁻ are equal but by the second ionization more H⁺ ions are produced along with SO₄⁻.

You can show it as one step dissociation, assuming 100% dissociation (given this is a strong acid):

By the stequiometry you can build this table:

                 H₂SO₄ (aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq)

Initial                A                 0              0

Change           - x               +2x          +x

Equilibrium       A - x           2x             x

As explained, A - x is very low, and 2x is twice x. Thus,

The rank of the concentrations from highest to lowest is:

  • [H⁺] > [SO₄²⁻] > [H₂SO₄]
