<span>Silver is usually alloyed with copper to increase the hardness and strength of sterling silver. Pure silver is relatively soft and prone to tarnishing so other metals like those that copper is used to reduce tarnishing and act as a solute in sterling silver. Copper is usually soluble in most solvents.</span>

The components of the substance is the solute and the solvent. The one that exists in a larger amount is most referred to as the solvent and the one that is in smaller amount is the solute. Comparing the amounts of the substances, the solute would be the copper.

John and Alex were asked to make a 0.70 M solution. John measure out .35 L from the 2.0 M solution before asking how much soluti
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

1.0 L

Explanation:

Given data

  • Initial volume (V₁): 0.35 L
  • Initial concentration (C₁): 2.0 M
  • Final volume (V₂): ?
  • Final concentration (C₂): 0.70 M

John and Alex prepared a diluted solution from a concentrated one. We can find the volume of the diluted solution using the dilution rule.

C₁ × V₁ = C₂ × V₂

V₂ = C₁ × V₁ / C₂

V₂ = 2.0 M × 0.35 L / 0.70 M

V₂ = 1.0 L

Complete the paragraph about the formation of sodium phosphide.
Nadya [2.5K]
<h2>Let us complete it :</h2>

The sodium atom looses electrons and the phosphorus atoms  

gains electrons .

C. This transfer makes the sodium atoms  acquire positive charge and phosphorous acquire negative charge .

As a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly  bond with
