B. Three are lost creating Al+3. Because atoms have and equal amount of Protons and Electons when neutral losing 3 electrons will create a positive Al ion Al+3

The answer is; B.

This is called an aluminum cation. Aluminum forms bonds with anions in which it can donate its three valence electrons so it can achieve stable electron configuration. Stable electron configuration is having 8 electron in the outer shell. By donating its 3 outer valence electrons, the aluminium will have the more stable 2.8 electron configuration. The +3 means it has lost 3 electrons hence has 3 extra protons (that are not matched by an electron) in its nucleus (also indicating its valency).

A solution prepared by mixing 10 ml of 1 m hcl and 10 ml of 1.2 m naoh has a ph of
blagie [28]

Answer: pH of resulting solution will be 13

Explanation:

pH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

Moles of H^+ ion = Molarity\times {\text {Volume in L}}=1M\times 0.01L=0.01mol

Moles of OH^- ion = Molarity\times {\text {Volume in L}}=1.2M\times 0.01L=0.012mol

HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O

For neutralization:

1 mole of H^+ ion will react with 1 mole of OH^- ion

0.01 mol of H^+  ion will react with =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.01mole of OH^- ion

Thus (0.012-0.01)= 0.002 moles of OH^- are left in 20 ml or 0.02 L of solution.

[OH^-]=\frac{0.002}{0.02L}=0.1M

pOH=-log[OH^-]

pOH=-log[0.1]=1

pH+pOH=14

pH=14-1=13

Thus the pH of resulting solution will be 13

What is the study of acid-base chemistry called in the environment
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

An acid is a substance that donates protons (in the Brønsted-Lowry definition) or accepts a pair of valence electrons to form a bond (in the Lewis definition). A base is a substance that can accept protons or donate a pair of valence electrons to form a bond. Bases can be thought of as the chemical opposite of acids.
