Answer:

The correct option is B) One atom of sodium and one atom of fluorine.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is produced between metallic and non-metallic atoms, where electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another. During this process, one atom loses electrons and another one gains them, forming ions. Usually, the metal gives up its electrons forming a cation to the nonmetal element, which forms an anion. In this way, the octet rule is fulfilled, which establishes that the atoms of the elements bind each other in the attempt to complete their valence layer, leaving the atom stable with 8 electrons in its last layer.

Given this, the correct option is option B). Sodium is a metal forming the cation and fluorine is a nonmetal, then it will form the anion.

harina [27]

Answer:

86.3 g  of N₂ are in the room

Explanation:

First of all we need the pressure from the N₂ in order to apply the Ideal Gases Law and determine, the moles of gas that are contained in the room.

We apply the mole fraction:

Mole fraction N₂ = N₂ pressure / Total pressure

0.78 . 1 atm = 0.78 atm → N₂ pressure

Room temperature → 20°C → 20°C + 273 = 293K

Let's replace data: 0.78 atm . 95L = n . 0.082 . 293K

(0.78 atm . 95L) /0.082 . 293K = n

3.08 moles = n

Let's convert the moles to mass → 3.08 mol . 28g /1mol = 86.3 g

How do you boil water less than 100​
natita [175]

Answer: When pressure cooker is used steam is trapped in the pot and it increases the pressure above the water. this causes the water to boil at a temperature more than 100 C. when you pull back on the plunger, the pressure in the syringe is reduced and the liquid boils at a lower temperature

3. If the percent by volume is 2.0% and the volume of solution is 250 mL, what is the volume of solute in solution? (1 point) 0.
igor_vitrenko [27]
Volume percent = Volume of solute
                              ----------------------------------
                                Volume of the solution
  
                  2                    Volume of the solute
               -------   =           ------------------------------
                100                               250
                     
         Volume of the solute = 2 x 250
                                                ------------
                                                  100         

                                             =   5 mL.

Hope this helps!
