Nina [5.8K]4 years ago

3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Element A has 3 electrons in outermost shell so its valency is 3. It will loose 3 electrons to attain stability, as loss of 3 electrons is easier than gain of 5 electrons.

Valency of B is −2 as it will gain 2 electrons to attain stability and combine with other atom.

Valency of A⟶+3

Valency of B⟶−2

(Refer to Image)

Cross multiply valency of A and B

∴A2B3 compound will be formed.

What is the concentration of OH − and pOH in a 0.00066 M solution of Ba ( OH ) 2 at 25 ∘ C? Assume complete dissociation.

Allushta [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The hydroxide ion concentration and pOH of the solution is $1.32\times 10^{-3}M$ and 2.88 respectively

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Concentration of barium hydroxide = 0.00066 M

The chemical equation for the dissociation of barium hydroxide follows:

$Ba(OH)_2\rightarrow Ba^{2+}+2OH^-$

1 mole of barium hydroxide produces 1 mole of barium ions and 2 moles of hydroxide ions

pOH is defined as the negative logarithm of hydroxide ion concentration present in the solution

To calculate pOH of the solution, we use the equation:

$pOH=-\log[OH^-]$

We are given:

$[OH^-]=(2\times 0.00066)=1.32\times 10^{-3}M$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$pOH=-\log(1.32\times 10^{-3})\\\\pOH=2.88$

Hence, the hydroxide ion concentration and pOH of the solution is $1.32\times 10^{-3}M$ and 2.88 respectively
