Answer: option <span>D. be given a positive charge produced by the movement of electrons to the other end of the ball.
</span>

Explanation:


This phenomenon is called electrostatic induction.


The excess of negative charge on the end of the rod will repel the electrons on the side of the pith ball that have been approached to it.

Then the electrons on the pith ball will move far away from this end with it will be left an excess of positive charge.

In this way the rod has induced that the ball acquires a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other end.

A chemistry student must write down in her lab notebook the concentration of a solution of sodium hydroxide. The concentration o
taurus [48]

Answer:

The concentration the student should write down in her lab is 2.2 mol/L

Explanation:

Atomic mass of the elements are:

Na: 22.989 u

S: 32.065 u

O: 15.999 u

Molar mass of sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3 = (2*22.989 + 2*32.065 + 3*15.999) g/mol = 158.105 g/mol.

Mass of Na2S2O3 taken = (19.440 - 2.2) g = 17.240 g.

For mole(s) of Na2S2O3 = (mass taken)/(molar mass)

= (17.240 g)/(158.105 g/mol) = 0.1090 mole.

Volume of the solution = 50.29 mL = (50.29 mL)*(1 L)/(1000 mL)

= 0.05029 L.

To find the molar concentration of the sodium thiosulfate solution prepared we use the formula:

= (moles of sodium thiosulfate)/(volume of solution in L)

= (0.1090 mole)/(0.05029 L)

= 2.1674 mol/L

What is the relationship between relative size of an ion and its neutral atom and the charge on the ions?
Vsevolod [243]
<span>With the addition of an electron causing a negative charge, an ion is larger than normal but with loss of an atoms electron, the positive ion is smaller. if the atom loses an electron, the ion is relatively smaller than the atom and it becomes positive. if the atom gains an electron, the ion is relatively bigger than the atom and it becomes negative.</span>
