An atom that has gained or lost electrons is called _____.

2 answers:

7 0

It called cation, Well, When an atom gains or loses an electron, it attains a net charge and becomes an ion. When electrons are lost, the resulting ion is called cation and when electrons are gained, the resulting ion is called an anion. So, Cations have a net positive charge, while anions have a net negative charge. it is true.

Assuming the volumes are additive, what is the [Cl−] in a solution obtained by mixing 297 mL of 0.675 M KCl and 664 mL of 0.338

Elden [556K]

Answer: The concentration of chloride ions in the solution obtained is 0.674 M

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$ .....(1)

For KCl:

Molarity of KCl solution = 0.675 M

Volume of solution = 297 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.675=\frac{\text{Moles of KCl}\times 1000}{297}\\\\\text{Moles of KCl}=\frac{(0.675mol/L\times 297)}{1000}=0.200mol$

1 mole of KCl produces 1 mole of chloride ions and 1 mole of potassium ion

Moles of chloride ions in KCl = 0.200 moles

For magnesium chloride:

Molarity of magnesium chloride solution = 0.338 M

Volume of solution = 664 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.338=\frac{\text{Moles of }MgCl_2\times 1000}{664}\\\\\text{Moles of }MgCl_2=\frac{(0.338mol/L\times 664)}{1000}=0.224mol$

1 mole of magnesium chloride produces 2 moles of chloride ions and 1 mole of magnesium ion

Moles of chloride ions in magnesium chloride = $(2\times 0.224)=0.448mol$

Calculating the chloride ion concentration, we use equation 1:

Total moles of chloride ions in the solution = (0.200 + 0.448) moles = 0.648 moles

Total volume of the solution = (297 + 664) mL = 961 mL

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Concentration of chloride ions}=\frac{0.648mol\times 1000}{961}\\\\\text{Concentration of chloride ions}=0.674M$

Hence, the concentration of chloride ions in the solution obtained is 0.674 M

Which layer is the oldest layer? How can you tell?

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

The principle of superposition states that the oldest rock units are at rock bottom , and therefore the youngest are at the highest . Based on this, layer C is oldest, followed by B and A. So the full sequence of events is as follows: Layer C formed.

Which of the following pairs contains a conjugate acid-base pair?

zzz [600]

Remember that a conjugate acid-base pair will differ only by one proton.
None of the options you listed are conjugate acid-base pairs as none of them differ only by one proton (or H⁺)
An example of a conjugate acid-base pair would be NH₃ and NH₄⁺NH₃ + H₂O --> NH₄⁺ + OH⁻NH3 is the base, and NH₄⁺ is the conjugate acid

A chemistry student must write down in her lab notebook the concentration of a solution of sodium hydroxide. The concentration o

taurus [48]

Answer:

The concentration the student should write down in her lab is 2.2 mol/L

Explanation:

Atomic mass of the elements are:

Na: 22.989 u

S: 32.065 u

O: 15.999 u

Molar mass of sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3 = (2*22.989 + 2*32.065 + 3*15.999) g/mol = 158.105 g/mol.

Mass of Na2S2O3 taken = (19.440 - 2.2) g = 17.240 g.

For mole(s) of Na2S2O3 = (mass taken)/(molar mass)

= (17.240 g)/(158.105 g/mol) = 0.1090 mole.

Volume of the solution = 50.29 mL = (50.29 mL)*(1 L)/(1000 mL)

= 0.05029 L.

To find the molar concentration of the sodium thiosulfate solution prepared we use the formula:

= (moles of sodium thiosulfate)/(volume of solution in L)

= (0.1090 mole)/(0.05029 L)

= 2.1674 mol/L
