Answer:

The answer to your question is Mg loses its valence electrons and acquire a positive charge (Mg⁺²).

Explanation:

Valence electrons are important for an element to attach to another one, metals lose these electrons while nonmetals gain electrons to complete the octet rule.

Magnesium is a metal that loses these electrons so when it becomes an ion Magnesium will have a positive charge  Mg⁺².

Calculate the sublimation pressure of the solid at the melting point of 400.00 K assuming that the enthalpy of sublimation is no
nasty-shy [4]

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Tonksite is a solid at 300.00K.  At 300.00 K its enthalpy of sublimation is 66.00 kJ/mol. The sublimation pressure at 300.00 K is 5.00 × 10⁻⁴ atm

Calculate the sublimation pressure of the solid at the melting point of 400.00 K assuming that the enthalpy of sublimation is not a function of temperature.

Answer: the sublimation pressure of the solid at the melting point is  0.3727 atm

Explanation:

Given that;

T1 = 300 K

T2 = 400 K

H_sub = 66 kJ/mol = 66000 J/mol

P1 = 5.00 × 10⁻⁴ atm

p2 = ?

now using the expression

log( p2 / 5.00 × 10⁻⁴ ) = (H_sub / R ×  2.303 ) (( T2 - T1) / T1T2)

now we substitute of given values into the expression

log(p2/p1) = (66000 / 8.314 ×  2.303 ) (( 400 - 300) / 300 × 400 )

p2 = 0.3727 atm

therefore the sublimation pressure of the solid at the melting point is  0.3727 atm

How many moles of sodium hydroxide are there in 1.0mL of 2.0M NaOH
kvasek [131]
To find the moles, you can use the following formula

moles= Molarity x Liters

Molarity= 2.0 M
Liters= 0.0010 Liters  ---------------->>>>>>>>>> 1.0 mL= 0.0010 Liters

moles= 2.0 M x 0.0010 Liters= 0.0020 moles
