Answer : Hg (Mercury)
Explanation : In the given series of elements Na falls after the Cu in the reactivity series, for Pb it also falls after Cu, and for Mg it is the same.
Only Hg which is mercury can spontaneously donate its electrons to copper in the solution because it falls before Cu in the reactivity/activity series.
Answer:
Dear, your answer is
solubility is affected by current concentration, mechanical disturbance, temperature and pressure. So the answers are:
- Increasing temperature decreases the solubility of gases.
- Stirring increases the solubility of solids.
- Increasing pressure increases the solubility of gases.
- Decreasing the amount of solvent decreases the solubility of solids, liquids, and gases.
Answer:
electronegativity of bonded atoms and shape.
Explanation:
if the shape of molecule is symmetric it will non polar. The polar molecules are trigonal in shape.
Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion and compound is polar.
Covalent bond:
It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.
The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive and compound will polar.
For example:
In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.
Icing sugar dissolves quicker than granulated sugar because of its small fine like particles, icing sugar is made so fine that it almost acts like flour, so its easier to dissolve as it will rapidly dissolve in water due to its bigger surface area.
