What is the charge of an aluminum ion? (2 points) Select one: a. 2+ b. 3+ c. 2- d. 3-
choli [55]

Answer:- b. +3

Explanations:- Charge of a metal ion is equal to the number of valence electrons it has as it loses these electrons to have its nearest noble gas like electron configuration.

Al has 3 valence electrons and being a metal it loses all of these and so the charge of Al ion is +3. It could be shown as:

Al\rightarrow Al^+^3+3e^-

So, the right choice is b. 3+.

if an atom of polonium-218 were to undergo alpha emission, followed by two beta emissions, which nuclide would result? lead-214
tia_tia [17]
Po, (218, 84) - Alpha Particle (4, 2) =   (218 - 4, 84 - 2) = <span>(214 , 82)</span>

(214 , 82) - 2Beta =   (214, 82 - 2*(-1)) = (214 , 84)

Polonium has atomic number of 84.

So answer = Polonium-214

80.0 mL of 0.30 M NaOH and 80.0 mL of 0.30 M HCl are mixed together. What is the approximate pH
Licemer1 [7]

Answer:

  • <u><em>Neutral</em></u>

Explanation:

The number of moles of solute is equal to product of the molar concentration (molarity) and the volume (in liters) of solution.

Since the volumes and the molar concentrations of the<em> NaOH </em>and <em>HCl </em>solutions mixed are equal, each one of them contributes the same number of moles of solute.

Since every mol of NaOH produces one mol of OH⁻ ions and every mol of HCl produces one mol of H⁺ ion, the number of moles of OH ⁻ and H⁺ in solution are equal.

Thus, OH⁻ and H⁺ ions will be neutralized by the reaction:

  • OH⁻ (aq) + H⁺ (aq) ⇄ H₂O (l)

Which is strongly shifted to the right and has <em>neutral pH</em>.

Hence, you conclude that the approximate <em>pH of the solution is neutral.</em>

How many moles of Magnesium Oxide are in 35g?
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

0.88mol

Explanation:

The number of moles, n, contained in a substance can be calculated using the formula;

Moles (n) = mass (m) ÷ molar mass (MM)

Molar mass of Magnesium oxide (MgO) = 24 + 16

= 40g/mol

According to the question, Mass of MgO = 35grams

Mole = 35/40

Mole = 0.875

Mole = 0.88mol
