Answer:
5.00 grams of salt contain more particles than 5.0 grams of sugar
Explanation:
Salt = NaCl
Molar mass = 58.45 g/mol
Sugar = C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁
Molar mass = 342.3 g/mol
Sugar's molar mass is higher than salt.
So 1 mol of sugar weighs more than 1 mol of salt
But 5 grams of salt occupies more mole than 5 grams of sugar
5 grams of salt = 5g / 58.45 g/m = 0.085 moles
5 grams of sugar = 5g/ 342.3 g/m = 0.014 moles
In conclusion, we have more moles of salt in 5 grams; therefore there are more particles than in 5 g of sugar.
The correct answer is a metal atom forms a cation, and a nonmetal atom forms an anion. This is because metals are less electronegative than nonmetals and will therefore give electrons to nonmetals. Atoms that give up electrons will have a positive charge therefore becoming a cation while atoms that accept electrons will have a negative charge therefore becoming an anion.
Ions that have the same charge can't be attracted to each other since it takes a positive and negative charge to cause attractive forces.
A less electronegative atom will transfer electrons to a more electronegative atom.
A metal (cation) can pull electrons from another metal (not an ion) but that does not form an attractive force between the two metals (You will learn more about this when you go over reduction potentials, redox reactions, and electrochemistry).
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
