The answer is: Mg.

Sulfate anion (SO₄²⁻) has negative charge, so element X must be element with positive charge +2.

Magnesium (Mg) is metal from 2. group of Periodic table of elements, it lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺).

Magnesium has atomic number 12, which means it has 12 protons and 12 electrons.

It lost two electrons to form magnesium cation (Mg²⁺) with stable electron configuration like closest noble gas neon (Ne) with 10 electrons.

Electron configuration of magnesium atom: ₁₂Mg 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s².  

Electron configuration of magnesium ion: ₁₂Mg²⁺ 1s² 2s² 2p⁶.

I'd say it is an element. It is not a compound, it doesn't do things on its own like us. It's an element like fire and water.

10.00 mL of 0.10 M NaOH is added to 25.00 mL of 0.10 M HCl during a titration
bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

10 mL = .01 L .

25 mL = .025 mL .

10 mL of .1 M NaOH will contain .01 x .1 = .001 moles

25 mL of .1M HCl will contain .025 x .1 = .0025 moles

acid will neutralise and after neutralisation moles of acid remaining

= .0025 - .001 = .0015 moles .

Total volume = .01 + .025 = .035 L

concentration of remaining HCl = .0015 / .035

Option D is correct.

= .042857 M

= 42.857 x 10⁻³ M .

pH = - log [42.857 x 10⁻³]

= 3 - log 42.857

= 3 - 1.632

= 1.368 .
