A Bronsted-Lowry acid is a chemical species that donates one or more hydrogen ions in a reaction. In contrast, a Bronsted-Lowry base accepts hydrogen ions. When it donates its proton, the acid becomes its conjugate base. A more general look at the theory is as an acid as a proton donor and a base as a proton acceptor. :)
Answer:
Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹
Explanation:
Sodium is present in group 1.
It is alkali metal.
It has one valence electron.
The atomic number of sodium is 11.
Its atomic mass is 23 amu.
The longhand notation of electronic configuration of sodium can be written as,
Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹
The electronic configuration in shorthand notation( noble gas) would be written as,
Na₁₁ = [Ne] 3s¹
Sodium loses its one valence electron to complete the octet and get stable thus form +1 cation.
It react with halogen and form salt. Such as sodium chloride.
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
Answer:
+1
Explanation:
Na₂O₂
NOTE: the oxidation number of oxygen is always –2 except in peroxides where it is –1.
Thus, we can obtain the oxidation number of sodium (Na) in Na₂O₂ as illustrated below:
Na₂O₂ = 0 (oxidation number of ground state compound is zero)
2Na + 2O = 0
O = –1
2Na + 2(–1) = 0
2Na – 2 = 0
Collect like terms
2Na = 0 + 2
2Na = 2
Divide both side by 2
Na = 2/2
Na = +1
Thus, the oxidation number of sodium (Na) in Na₂O₂ is +1
<span>In normal conditions gas particles remain very distant from each other. They rarely collide and are stable. When temperature increases the gas particles begin to move faster and collide more, reducing the distance. When pressure increases the gas particles also pick up kinetic speed and are also closer to each other.</span>
