Chemistry
1 answer:
nikitadnepr [17]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Explanation:

The positive (protons) and negative (electrons) charges balance each other in a neutral atom, which has a net zero charge. Because protons and neutrons each have a mass of 1, the mass of an atom is equal to the number of protons and neutrons of that atom.

What is the metal cation in K,SO,? (cation is pronounced cat-ion and refers to a positively charged ion)
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

Potassium cation = K⁺²

Explanation:

The metal cation in K₂SO₄ is K⁺². While the anion is SO₄²⁻.

All the metals have tendency to lose the electrons and form cation. In given compound the metal is potassium so it should form the cation. The overall compound is neutral.

The charge on sulfate is -2. While the oxidation state of potassium is +1. So in order to make compound overall neutral there should be two potassium cation so that potassium becomes +2 and cancel the -2 charge on sulfate and make the charge on compound zero.

2K⁺²  ,  SO₄²⁻

K₂SO₄

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

The molarity of a solution is found to be 10 M.

Explanation:

  • Molarity of a solution = <u>moles solute</u>

                                        Litres solution

  • Therefore,M =<u> 50</u>

                        5
