<span>It is the valence orbit that controls the electrical properties of the atom. The valence electron is referred to as a "free electron.' Valence electrons have the highest energy of all electrons in an atom; they are also the most reactive, meaning they are usually the electrons involved in bonding. When silicon atoms combine to form a solid, they arrange themselves into an orderly pattern called a crystal.</span>
Answer is: 10 moles of water will be produced.
Balanced chemical reaction of formation of water:
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O.
n(H₂) = 10 mol; amount of hydrogen gas.
From balanced chemical reaction: n(H₂) : n(H₂O) = 2 : 2 (1 : 1).
n(H₂O) = n(H₂).
n(H₂O) = 10 mol; amount of water.
Answer:
The concentration of species in 500 mL of a 2.104 M solution of sodium sulfate is 4.208 M sodium ion and 2.104 M sulfate ion. (option E)
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Volume = 500 mL = 0.500 L
The concentration sodium sulfate = 2.104 M
Step 2: The equation
Na2SO4 → 2Na+ + SO4^2-
For 1 mol Na2SO4 we have 2 moles sodium ion (Na+) and 1 mol sulfate ion (SO4^2-)
Step 3: Calculate the concentration of the ions
[Na+] = 2*2.104 M = 4.208 M
[SO4^2-] = 1*2.104 M = 2.104 M
The concentration of species in 500 mL of a 2.104 M solution of sodium sulfate is 4.208 M sodium ion and 2.104 M sulfate ion. (option E)
Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Metals are the species which contain more number of electrons.
When a specie loses electrons then it acquires a positive charge. Whereas when an atom gains electrons then it acquires a negative charge.
Thus, as metals have more number of electrons, therefore, in order to gain stability metals readily lose electrons.
Hence, metals naturally form positive ions, by losing electrons to empty the valence shell.
The answer is: Cl2.
Chlorine is diatomic molecule made of two chlorine atoms.
Diatomic molecules are molecules made of two atoms.
They can be homonuclear (molecule made of two atoms of the same element) and heteronuclear (molecule made of two different atoms).
Chlorine (Cl) is halogen element.
Halogen elements are in group 17: fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br) and iodine (I). They are very reactive and easily form many compounds.
