Explanation:
Metals are the species which readily lose electrons in order to attain stability. This electron lost by the atom is actually present in its outermost shell which is also known as valence shell.
Ionization energy is defined as the energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from a neutral gaseous atom.
When we move across a period from left to right then there occurs a decrease in atomic size of the atoms. Therefore, ionization energy increases along a period.
But when we move down a group then there occurs an increase in atomic size of the atoms due to addition of number of electrons in the atoms. Hence, ionization energy decreases along a group.
Thus, we can conclude that metals have low ionization energies and readily share their valence or outer electrons with each other to form an electron sea. These electrons are delocalized or shared among all the atoms that are bonded together and can therefore move freely throughout the metal structure.
This problem is providing the basic dissociation constant of ibuprofen (IB) as 5.20, its pH as 8.20 and is requiring the equilibrium concentration of the aforementioned drug by giving the chemical equation at equilibrium it takes place. The obtained result turned out to be D) 4.0 × 10−7 M, according to the following work:
First of all, we set up an equilibrium expression for the given chemical equation at equilibrium, in which water is omitted for it is liquid and just aqueous species are allowed to be included:
![Kb=\frac{[IBH^+][OH^-]}{[IB]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Kb%3D%5Cfrac%7B%5BIBH%5E%2B%5D%5BOH%5E-%5D%7D%7B%5BIB%5D%7D)
Next, we calculate the concentration of hydroxide ions and the Kb due to the fact that both the pH and pKb were given:
![[OH^-]=10^{-5.8}=1.585x10^{-6}M](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BOH%5E-%5D%3D10%5E%7B-5.8%7D%3D1.585x10%5E%7B-6%7DM)
Then, since the concentration of these ions equal that of the conjugated acid of the ibuprofen (IBH⁺), we can plug in these and the Kb to obtain:
![6.31x10^{-6}=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{[IB]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=6.31x10%5E%7B-6%7D%3D%5Cfrac%7B%281.585x10%5E%7B-6%7D%29%281.585x10%5E%7B-6%7D%29%7D%7B%5BIB%5D%7D)
Finally, we solve for the equilibrium concentration of ibuprofen:
![[IB]=\frac{(1.585x10^{-6})(1.585x10^{-6})}{6.31x10^{-6}}=4.0x10^{-7}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BIB%5D%3D%5Cfrac%7B%281.585x10%5E%7B-6%7D%29%281.585x10%5E%7B-6%7D%29%7D%7B6.31x10%5E%7B-6%7D%7D%3D4.0x10%5E%7B-7%7D)

Answer:
Yes, water can stay liquid below zero degrees Celsius. There are a few ways in which this can happen. The freezing point of water drops below zero degrees Celsius as you apply pressure. When we apply pressure to a liquid, we force the molecules to get closer together.
