What is the difference between an anion and a cation

Chemistry
1 answer:
Svetlanka [38]3 years ago
7 0

Cations and anions are both ions. The difference between a cation and an anion is the net electrical charge of the ion. Ions are atoms or molecules which have gained or lost one or more valencee electron giving the ion a net positive or negative charge. Cations are ions with a net positive charge.

The solvent was propanone. Which of the three basic colours is most soluble in propanone?​
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

Red dye

Explanation:

In the given question, the complete question has not been provided but the propanone is used as a solvent in paper chromatography. The paper chromatography was performed for the black ink in which the black ink got separated in the red, blue and yellow colour.

From these three colours that are red, blue and yellow, the dye which is most soluble in propanone was red as red colour moved the most in the given chromatogram and the dye which travelled the most is most soluble in propanone.

Thus, red dye is the correct answer.

1. How many moles of nitrogen monoxide can be made using 5.0 moles of oxygen in the following composition reaction?
Viktor [21]

Answer:

1)  10.0 moles of NO

2) 25 moles of NaCl

3) 1200 moles of CO2

1. How many moles of nitrogen monoxide can be made using 5.0 moles of oxygen in the following composition reaction?

N2 + O2 → 2NO

For 1 mol N2 we need 1 mol O2 to produce 2 moles of NO

For 5.0 moles of N2 we need 5.0 moles of O2 to produce 10.0 moles of NO

2. The neutralization of an acid with a base is a double replacement reaction in which a salt and water are formed. If you start with 25 moles of HCl and neutralize it with  NaOH how many moles of NaCl will be formed?

HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O

For 1 mol HCl we need 1 mol NaOH to produce 1 mol of NaCl and 1 mol H2O

For 25 moles of HCl we need 25 moles of NaOH to produce 25 moles of NaCl and 25 moles of H2O

3. A car burns gasoline (octane – C8H18) with oxygen. If you drive to Salt Lake and  burn 150 moles of octane how many moles of carbon dioxide are you producing?

2C8H18 + 25O2 → 16CO2 + 18H2O

For 2 moles of octane we need 25 moles of O2 to produce 16 moles of CO2 and 18 moles of H2O

For 150 moles of octane we need 25*75 = 1875 moles of O2

To produce 16*75 = 1200 moles of CO2 and 18*75= 1350 moles

Why do the pH scale generally range from 0 to 14 in aqueous solution?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

In aqueous solution the pH scale varies from 0 to 14, which indicates this concentration of hydrogen. Solutions with pH less than 7 are acidic (the value of the exponent of the concentration is higher, because there are more ions in the solution) and alkaline (basic) those with a pH higher than 7. If the solvent is pure water, the pH = 7 indicates neutrality of the solution

Explanation:

PH is a measure of how acidic or basic a liquid is. Specifically, from a dissolution. The acidity of a solution is essentially due to the concentration of hydrogen ions dissolved in it. In reality, the ions are not found alone, but are in the form of hydronium ions consisting of one oxygen molecule and three positively charged hydrogen. PH precisely measures this concentration. And to do it, we can use simple and very visual methods.
