The statement which is true is
metals lose electrons to become cations
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
- metals tends to loss electrons to attain noble gas electrons configuration.
- When metal loses electrons they form a positive charged ions.
- The positively charged ion is known as cations.
- for example sodium metal (Na) loses 1 electron to form a cation with a charge of positive 1 ( Na^+)
Molarity is expressed as the number of moles of solute per volume of the solution. For example, we are given a solution of 2M NaOH this describes a solution that has 2 moles of NaOH per 1 L volume of the solution. To calculate the moles of NaCl in 1.0 M of solution, we simply multiply the volume given of the solution.
moles NaCl = 1.0 M (0.100 L ) = 0.10 mol NaCl --------> OPTION B
Answer:
Explanation:
Just saw your request regarding answering this so here it is:
All of them belong of Group 1 in periodic table and thus are highly reactive! Pattern of reactivity for Group 1 (Alkali metals) increases as you move down the group as their radius keeps increasing and thus electrons can be easily lost. Thus, to ID the lumps, Sheena should look at their reactivity and she should get the following trend:
Most reactive: Potassium (K)
Intermediate: Sodium (Na)
Least reactive: Lithium (Li)
Hope it helps!
