Ionic bond is a chemical bond formed by the complete transfer of electrons between two atoms. The atom that loses electrons gains a positive charge (cation) and that which accepts electrons gains a negative charge (anion). Now, electronegativity is a parameter that measures the tendency of an atom to accept electrons. In the context of ionic bonding, two elements which show a significant difference in their electronegativity values form ionic bonds.

In the given examples, the difference in electronegativity is greatest between K and Br i.e. 0.8 and 2.8 respectively with a difference of 2.0. This also makes sense since K and Br are on the extreme ends of the periodic table. Hence, potassium with a valence electron configuration of 4s1 will lose its s electron to Br (4s24p6) and form an ionic molecule K⁺Br⁻

A solution is prepared by mixing 525 mL of ethanol with 597 mL of water. The molarity of ethanol in the resulting solution is 8.

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

$\Delta V = 234.736\,mL$

Explanation:

The quantity of moles of ethanol in the solution is:

$n_{C_{2}H_{5}OH} = \left(\frac{597\,mL}{1000\,mL} \right)\cdot \left(8.35\,\frac{mol}{L} \right)$

$n_{C_{2}H_{5}OH} = 4.985\,mol$

The mass and volume of ethanol in the solution are, respectively:

$m_{C_{2}H_{5}OH} = (4.985\,mol)\cdot \left(46.07\,\frac{g}{mol} \right)$

$m_{C_{2}H_{5}OH} = 229.658\,g$

$V_{C_{2}H_{5}OH} = \frac{229.658\,g}{0.7893\,\frac{g}{mL} }$

$V_{C_{2}H_{5}OH} = 290.964\,mL$

The difference between the total volume of water and ethanol mixed to prepare the solution and the actual volume of solution is:

$\Delta V = (525\,mL+597\,mL) - (597\,mL + 290.964\,mL)$

$\Delta V = 234.736\,mL$

Between a water molecule and an anion, like Cl-, a _____A_____ occurs between a _____B_____ of the water molecule and the anion.

AVprozaik [17]

Between a water molecule and an anion, like Cl-, a hydrogen bon occurs between hydrogen atom of the water molecule and the anion.

<h3>What is hydrogen bond?</h3>

Hydrogen bond is a weak bond between two molecules resulting from an electrostatic attraction between a proton in one molecule and an electronegative atom in the other. Hydrogen atom in water molecule attract anion due to presence of hydrogen bond.

So we can conclude that hydrogen bond occurs between hydrogen atom of the water molecule and the anion.
