Why does it make sense that if an atom loses electrons, it is left with a positive charge?

1 answer:

5 0

Electrons are negatively charged. If you remove negative particles, the leftover atom is positive and positive is really just another word for "less negative".

. In a titration, a 25.0 mL sample of 0.150 M HCl is neutralized with 44.45 mL of Ba(OH)2. a. Write the balanced molecular equat

choli [55]

Answer:

Equation of reaction:

a) 2HCl + Ba(OH)2 ==> CaCl2 + 2H2O

b) Molarity of base = 0.042 M.

Explanation:

Using titration equation

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

Where NA is the number of mole of acid = 2

NB is the number of mole of base = 1

CA is the molarity of acid =0.15M

CB is the molarity of base = to be calculated

VA is the volume of acid = 25 ml

VB is the volume of base = 44.45mL

Substituting

0.15×25/CB×44.45 = 2/1

Therefore CB =0.15×25×1/44.45×2

CB = 0.042 M.

Single and double replacement

MrMuchimi

Answer:

Explanation:

A single replacement or single displacement reaction is a reaction in which one substance replaces another.

A + BC → AC + B

The replacement of an ion in solution by a metal higher in the activity series is a special example of this reaction type.

The relative positions of the elements in the activity series provides the driving force for single displacement reactions.

A double replacement reaction is one in which there is an actual exchange of partners between reacting species. This reaction is more common between ionic substances;

AB + CD → AC + BD

Such reactions are usually driven by;
