Explanation:
- When an aqueous solution of a certain acid is prepared it is dissociated is as follows-
⇄ 
Here HA is a protonic acid such as acetic acid, 
- The double arrow signifies that it is an equilibrium process, which means the dissociation and recombination of the acid occur simultaneously.
- The acid dissociation constant can be given by -
= ![\dfrac{[H^{+}] [A^{-}]}{[HA]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B%5BH%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%20%5BA%5E%7B-%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BHA%5D%7D)
- The reaction is can also be represented by Bronsted and lowry -
⇄ ![[H_3O^+] [A^-]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D%20%5BA%5E-%5D)
- Then the dissociation constant will be
= ![\dfrac{[H_3O^{+}] [A^{-}]}{[HA]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B%5BH_3O%5E%7B%2B%7D%5D%20%5BA%5E%7B-%7D%5D%7D%7B%5BHA%5D%7D)
Here,
is the dissociation constant of an acid.
7 valance electrons and a atomic number of 9
Answer:
An element
It stays shiny
Explanation:
Pure Gold is an element.
An element is a distinct substance that cannot be split-up into simpler substances. Such substances consists of only one kind of atom.
There are over a hundred elements known to date.
As an element, Gold is classified as a metal due to its very unique set of properties.
One of the indicator that gold does not react with oxygen is that it stays shiny. It does not give rusty look when exposed to air.
Substances that combines with oxygen have a rusty look or change appearance when expose to air. For example, iron.
