32 electrons. as the orbitals get father away from the nucleus, they hold more electrons.
<span>Answer is: pH of solution of sodium cyanide is 11.3.
Chemical reaction 1: NaCN(aq) → CN</span>⁻(aq)
+ Na⁺<span>(aq).
Chemical reaction 2: CN</span>⁻ +
H₂O(l) ⇄ HCN(aq) + OH⁻<span>(aq).
c(NaCN) = c(CN</span>⁻<span>)
= 0.021 M.
Ka(HCN) = 4.9·10</span>⁻¹⁰<span>.
Kb(CN</span>⁻) = 10⁻¹⁴ ÷
4.9·10⁻¹⁰ = 2.04·10⁻⁵<span>.
Kb = [HCN] · [OH</span>⁻]
/ [CN⁻<span>].
[HCN] · [OH</span>⁻<span>] =
x.
[CN</span>⁻<span>] = 0.021 M - x..
2.04·10</span>⁻⁵<span> = x² / (0.021 M
- x).
Solve quadratic equation: x = [OH</span>⁻<span>] = 0.00198 M.
pOH = -log(0.00198 M) = 2.70.
pH = 14 - 2.70 = 11.3.</span>
Steel is practically one of the worlds most important metals to use in construction, it is harder and stronger than iron can be. You can say iron is the base metal of steel, if you need more info, just ask :>
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an element on the periodic table. Atoms want to be able to have a full outer shell and they can share or trade electrons in order to achieve this. Valence electrons are also super super important in chemical reactions. The number of valence electrons determines what group that specific atom or element is in on the periodic table. This affects the reactivity of the element.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The valence electrons are electrons found on the valence (outermost) shell of an atom.
When an atoms form compounds, there is an exchange of valence electrons between the atoms of one element and the atoms of another element.
Let us consider a typical example, sodium has one valence electron and chlorine has seven valence electrons. This means that chlorine needs one electron to complete its octet while sodium needs to release one electron in order to attain the octet structure.
So, sodium gives out its one electron and becomes a stable sodium ion and chlorine accepts that electron and becomes a stable chloride ion. This is how the compound sodium chloride is formed.
