Answer:

4. The valence electrons are given up by the Na and gained by the F.

Explanation:

Sodium and fluorine bond ionically, they do not share electrons. Instead, ionic bonding involves the each atom of the metal, sodium, giving up its one electron in it's valence shell to each atom of the non-metal, fluorine.

Kp = (p(P₄)  · p(Br₂)⁶) ÷ p(PBr₃)⁴. 
p(P₄) - partial pressure of phosphorus.
p(Br₂) - partial pressure of bromine.

PLEASE HELP!!<br><br> How does temperature, agitation, and particle size affect solubility?
Rashid [163]

Answer:

At higher temperatures, particles move faster and collide more, increasing solubility rates.

Agitation increases solubility rates as well, by bringing fresh solvent into contact with the undissolved solute

The smaller the particle size, the higher (faster) solubility rate. Vice versa, the bigger the particle size, the lower (slower) solubility rate.

Which way will the equilibrium shift if you..... cool it to a low temperature?
igor_vitrenko [27]
If you can provide the reaction you are looking at, then we can provide a more satisfactory answer.

If the forward reaction is exothermic, then reducing the temperature where the reaction occurs will shift the equilibrium towards the right. This is because exothermic reactions release heat, and this will counteract the change as stated in Le Chatelier's Principle.

If the forward reaction is endothermic, then reducing the temperature will shift to the left. This occurs as the backward reaction is the exothermic reaction, and by Le Chatelier's Principle, the reaction will favor the reaction that produces more in to counter a reduction in temperature, in this case the backward direction reaction.
