Yes that’s right, but where’s the question then?:)))
The answer to your question is option b, a base. This is because the question clearly tells you that one reactant is an acid. Then, it tells you that an acid plus something gives you a salt and water, as products
From background knowledge, we know that a base plus acid gives you a salt and water. The hydroxide ions from the base neutralise the hydrogen ions from the acid, which gives you water ( as it has a pH of 7).
Therefore, your answer is b, a base
Iodine has 7 valence electrons. It needs therefore only 1 electron to be stable this is why it is so reactive.
Answer:
CeO₂
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since we are given the mass of both cerium and the cerium oxide, we can first compute the moles of cerium and the moles of oxygen as shown below:
Now, we simply divide each moles by 0.03 as the fewest moles in the formula to obtain the simplest formula (empirical formula) of this oxide:
Thus, the formula turns out:
Regards!
Answer:
Explanation:
Covalent bond:
It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.
The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards itself and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.
Non polar covalent bond:
It is the bond where both bonded atoms share the pair of electron equally.
For example:
Hydrogen gas (H₂) is non polar covalent compound because the electronegativity of both bonded atoms are same. No poles are created that's why this is non polar covalent compound.
Polar covalent bond:
It is the bond where both bonded atoms share the pair of electron unequally.
For example:
In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive and bond is polar.
