Answer:

<u>Physical Properties</u>

1. Metals are shiny but most non - metals lack this property.

2. Metals are able to deform under compression (malleable) but most non - metals lack this property.

What is the pH of a solution with an [H+] of (a) 5.4 x 10-10, (b) 4.3 x 10-5, (c) 5.4 x 10-7?
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

a. 9.2

b. 4.4

c. 6.3

Explanation:

In order to calculate the pH of each solution, we will use the definition of pH.

pH = -log [H⁺]

(a) [H⁺] = 5.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ M

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 5.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ = 9.2

Since pH > 7, the solution is basic.

(b) [H⁺] = 4.3 × 10⁻⁵ M

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 4.3 × 10⁻⁵ = 4.4

Since pH < 7, the solution is acid.

(c) [H⁺] = 5.4 × 10⁻⁷ M

pH = -log [H⁺] = -log 5.4 × 10⁻⁷ = 6.3

Since pH < 7, the solution is acid.

What are atoms?
user100 [1]

Answer:

The smallest particle of a chemical element can be defined as an atom.

Explanation:

The number of protons in one atom of an element determines the atom's identity, and the number of electrons determines its electrical charge.

a single electron or one of two or more electrons in the outer shell of an atom that is responsible for the chemical properties of the atom is known as valence electrons.

An atom's reactivity is its tendency to lose or gain electrons. ... This is because they have one outer electron and losing it gives them the stability of a outer electron shell as the next level... The reactivities of elements can be predicted by periodic trends.
