<span><span>Na: (2e)
Br: (7e, you don't count for the d orbitals)
Then, once you know this, you can deduce how many bonds each can do and you discover that bromine can do one bond since he has one electron missing in his p orbital, but that weirdly, since the s orbital of sodium is full and thus, should not make any bond.
However, it is possible for sodium to come in an excited state in wich he will have sent one of its electrons on an higher shell to have this valence configuration:</span></span>

</span>where here now it has two lonely valence electrons, one on the s and the other on the p, so that it can do a total of two bonds.</span><span>That's why bromine and sodium can form </span>

Answer:
mass of X extracted from the aqueous solution by 50 cm³ of ethoxy ethane = 3.33 g
Explanation:
The partition coefficient of X between ethoxy ethane (ether) and water, K is given by the formula
K = concentration of X in ether/concentration of X in water
Partition coefficient, K(X) between ethoxy ethane and water = 40
Concentration of X in ether = mass(g)/volume(dm³)
Mass of X in ether = m g
Volume of ether = 50/1000 dm³ = 0.05 dm³
Concentration of X in ether = (m/0.05) g/dm³
Concentration of X in water = mass(g)/volume(dm³)
Mass of X in water left after extraction with ether = (5 - m) g
Volume of water = 1 dm³
Concentration of X in water = (5 - m/1) g/dm³
Using K = concentration of X in ether/concentration of X in water;
40 = (m/0.05)/(5 - m)
(m/0.05) = 40 × (5 - m)
(m/0.05) = 200 - 40m
m = 0.05 × (200 - 40m)
m = 10 - 2m
3m = 10
m = 10/3
m = 3.33 g of X
Therefore, mass of X extracted from the aqueous solution by 50 cm³ of ethoxy ethane = 3.33 g
Mass of molecule (g) = Mr of substance over avarogado constant
In terms of a deeper scientific reason, I am not sure, but the basic reason is quite simple. "Mud" tends to look like a mix between a solid, dirt, and a liquid, water or some other liquid. Since it is, in fact, a cross between a solid and a liquid, it has properties of both. It has certain physical and visual properties that only a solid would have, such as texture and opaqueness, but it also has physical properties of a liquid. Since it leans more towards the liquid side than the solid side, we say mud "flows" rather than saying that it "rolls" or "bounces".
As,
Kw = [H+] [OH-]
For water, [H+] = [OH-]
Therefore we can write
Kw = [H+]²
9.311 × 10-14 = [H+]²
[H+] =
3.04 × 10-7 = [OH-]
Ph = - log [H+]
= - log (
3.04 × 10-7)
= 6.52
Thus, Ph = PoH = 6.52
