Sodium loses a negative electron when forming chemical bonds. When it loses an electron, it becomes a sodium ion with a net charge of +1.

It has to be noted that sodium is an element which belongs in the first column of the periodic table. This means that it has  a valence electron of 1 which further means that it is capable of donating one of its electron to another element during reaction. This is exactly the explanation as to why it becomes charged +1 after the reaction.

Q3. A student wanted to make blue copper sulfate crystals from green copper carbonate powder
CaHeK987 [17]

Heat the sulfuric acid solution and adding copper carbonate in it.

<h3>Improvement require in this experiment</h3>

The method could be improved by heating sulfuric acid solution and add copper carbonate into the solution of sulfuric acid. Add the copper carbonate until it is present in excess amount. After that filter the extra amount of copper carbonate so in this way the blue copper sulfate crystals are produced.

What is the molar concentration of the acid if 35.18 mL of hydrochloric acid was required to neutralize 0.745 g of ALUMINUM hydr
Makovka662 [10]

The mass number of aluminium hydroxide is 78 thus, the number of moles in 0.745 g is:

no. of moles= mass/ RFM

= 0.745/78

=0.00955moles

Therefore the 0.00955 moles should be in the 35.18 ml

therefore 1000ml of the solution will have:

(0.00955ml×1000ml)/35.18

=0.2715moles

The  solution will be 0.27M hydrochloric acid
