When non metals form ions what ions do they tend to form?

Chemistry

Maurinko [17]4 years ago

Non-metals have a larger number of outer electrons called valence electrons. Therefore, it is easier for them to "steal" valance electrons from other elements with fewer valence electrons(usually metals) 

For example, Chlorine(Cl) has 7 ve-. When forming an ion it will steal one electron from a metal. and gain a charge of -1. Because the ion is NEGATIVELY charged, it will be called an anion. 

Nonmetals form anions.

Vocab:
cation: 
Paws-itively charged ions (get it? because its a CAT ion?) 
anion:
negatively charged ions

_____________ is a common and tasty compound made up of the elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Glucose

Explanation:

Glucose, also called dextrose is one of a group of carbohydrates known as simple sugars or monosaccharides. Glucose is derived from the Greek word 'glykys' meaning “sweet”. It has the molecular formula C6H12O6. It is commonly found in fruits and honey and is the major free sugar circulating in the blood of higher animals. It is the source of energy in cell function, and the regulation of its metabolism is of great importance. Molecules of starch, the major energy-reserve of carbohydrate of plants, consist of thousands of linear glucose units. Another major compound composed of glucose is cellulose, which is also linear. Dextrose is the molecule D-glucose.

Glucose is composed of carbon hydrogen and oxygen in a ratio of 1:2:1 as typified by its formula. It is known for its sweet taste. It can be combined with fructose in table sugar.

100 mL of a buffer that consists of 0.20 M NH3 and 0.20 M NH4Cl is titrated with 25 mL of 0.20 M HCl. Calculate the pH of the re
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

pH = 9.03

Explanation:

The equilibrium of the NH₄Cl / NH₃ buffer in water is:

NH₃ + H₂O ⇄ NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

Initial moles of both NH₃ and NH₄⁺ are:

0.100L ₓ (0.20 mol / L) = <em>0.0200 moles </em>

The NH₃ reacts with HCl producing NH₄⁺, thus:

NH₃ + HCl → NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻

<em>That means, moles of HCl added to the solution are the same moles are consumed of NH₃ and produced of NH₄⁺</em>

Moles added of HCl were:

0.025L ₓ (0.20mol / L) = 0.0050 moles of HCl. Thus, final moles of NH₃ and NH₄⁺ are:

NH₃: 0.0200 moles - 0.0050 moles = 0.0150 moles

NH₄⁺: 0.0200 moles + 0.0050 moles = 0.0250 moles.

Using H-H equation for bases:

pOH = pKb + log [NH₄⁺] / [NH₃]

<em>Where pKb is -log Kb =</em><em> 4.745</em><em>.</em>

Replacing:

pOH = 4.745 + log 0.0250mol / 0.0150mol

pOH = 4.967

As pH = 14- pOH

<em>pH = 9.03</em>

Which of the following phrases best describes the disposal method used for high-level nuclear waste?
m_a_m_a [10]

<u>Answer:</u>

The disposal method used for high-level nuclear waste Concentrate and contain

<u>Explanation:</u>

High intensity nuclear waste is an underlying issue for the world where the generated nuclear waste is one side very hazardous and on other side would help us  in many viable processes but the negative sides of a consequence  just outnumber the positive sides of the situation.

Concentrate and contain is a waste disposable method which enables the nuclear waste to be preserved and isolated and later be used when the time comes. Other methods would not be suggested because they could cause a huge amount of dangerous radioactivity in oceans which is often harmful for people.
