Answer:

2. The metal would lose one electrons and the non metal would gain one electrons

Explanation:

An atom of a certain element reacts with the atoms of other elements in order to fullfill its outermost shell (called valence shell).

We notice the following:

- The elements in Group 1 (which are metals) have only 1 electron in their valence shell

- The elements in Group 17 (which are non-metals) have 1 vacancy (lack of electron) in their valence shell

This means that in order for both an atom of group 1 and an atom of group 17 to fullfill the valence shell, they have to:

- The atom in group 1 has to give away its only electron of the valence shell

- The atom in group 17 has to gain one electron in order to fullfill the shell

Therefore, the correct option is

2. The metal would lose one electrons and the non metal would gain one electrons

The vapor pressure of water at 65oC is 187.54 mmHg. What is the vapor pressure of a ethylene glycol (CH2(OH)CH2(OH)) solution ma

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

173.83 mmHg is the vapor pressure of a ethylene glycol solution.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure of water at 65 °C= $p_o= 187.54 mmHg$

Vapor pressure of the solution at 65 °C= $p_s$

The relative lowering of vapor pressure of solution in which non volatile solute is dissolved is equal to mole fraction of solute in the solution.

Mass of ethylene glycol = 22.37 g

Mass of water in a solution = 82.21 g

Moles of water= $n_1=\frac{82.21 g}{18 g/mol}=4.5672 mol$

Moles of ethylene glycol= $n_2=\frac{22.37 g}{62.07 g/mol}=0.3603 mol$

$\frac{p_o-p_s}{p_o}=\frac{n_2}{n_1+n_2}$

$\frac{187.54 mmHg-p_s}{187.54 mmHg}=\frac{0.3603 mol}{0.3603 mol+4.5672 mol}$

$p_s=173.83 mmHg$

173.83 mmHg is the vapor pressure of a ethylene glycol solution.

Why are non-metals dull in appearance as solids?

Inessa [10]

Metalloids are metallic-looking brittle solids that are either semiconductors or exist in semiconducting forms, and have amphoteric or weakly acidic oxides. Typical nonmetals have a dull, coloured or colourless appearance; are brittle when solid; are poor conductors of heat and electricity; and have acidic oxides.

What is the molarity of an aqueous solution containing 1.5 moles of calcium chloride in 2.75 L of solution? A. 0.004 M B. 0.55 M

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

B. 0.55 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Moles of calcium chloride (solute): 1.5 mol

Volume of solution: 2.75 M

Step 2: Calculate the molarity of the aqueous solution

The molarity is a way to express the concentration of a solution. It is equal to the quotient between the moles of solute and the liters of solution.

M = moles of solute / liters of solution

M = 1.5 mol / 2.75 L = 0.55 mol/L = 0.55 M
