Chemistry

Hello! Your answer would be a gain of electrons and a decrease in positive charge.

Contrary to how it sounds, reduction is actually a gain of electrons. It is part of a set of reactions known as a redox reaction, reduction being a gain of electrons and oxidation being a loss.

With the gain of electrons, the element would become more negative as electrons bring with them a negative charge. Therefore, this would decrease the positive charge.

Hope this helped!

Why don’t these gases tend to form chemical bonds?
erik [133]

If you’re talking about noble gases, the answer would be A. Since noble gases already have 8 electrons, they don’t tend to form chemical bonds. And elements need just 8 electrons on there shells to be stable.

If 550 mL of a 3.50 M KCl solution are set aside and allowed to evaporate until the volume of the solution is 275 mL, what will
tatiyna

Answer:

Explanation:

Molarity = number of moles / volume

If 550 mL of a 3.50 M KCl solution are set aside and allowed to evaporate until the volume of the solution is 275 mL, which is half of 550 mL, the molarity of the solution with the same number of moles of KCl is 3.5 * 2 = 7.00 M
