It is <span>a homogeneous, noncrystalline substance consisting of large molecules or ultramicroscopic particles of one substance dispersed through a second substance. Colloids include gels, sols, and emulsions; the particles do not settle and cannot be separated out by ordinary filtering or centrifuging like those in a suspension! :) I hope this helps!</span>

What happens to an Atom when it gains two electrons
gregori [183]
When an atom gains two electrons, it becomes increasingly negative. In a neutral atom, there is the same number of protons and electrons to keep the atom charge free. By adding two electrons, you have thrown off the balance, making the atom negative

30. What is the Bronsted base of H2PO4- + OH- ⟶HPO42- + H2O?
romanna [79]

Answer:

OH⁻ is the Bronsted-Lowry base.

Explanation:

A Bronsted-Lowry base is a substance that accepts protons. In the chemical equation, OH⁻ accepts a proton from H₂PO₄⁻ to become H₂O. H₂PO₄⁻ would be a Bronsted-Lowry acid because it donates a proton to OH⁻ and becomes HPO₄²⁻.

Hope that helps.

If we mix 25 grams of sodium bromide with a large amount of potassium chloride, what will our theoretical yield of sodium chlori
erik [133]

Answer:

Theoretical yield of sodium chloride = 14.04 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium bromide = 25 g

Theoretical yield of sodium chloride = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

NaBr + KCl  → NaCl  + KBr

Number of moles sodium bromide:

Number of moles = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles = 25.0 g / 102.9 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.24 mol

Now we will compare the moles of NaCl with NaBr  .

                  NaBr         :               NaCl

                    1               :               1

                 0.24           :            0.24

Theoretical yield of sodium chloride:            

Mass  = moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.24 mol ×  58.5 g/mol

Mass =  14.04 g
