Answer:
(<em>i) Concentrated HNO3 can be stored and transported in aluminium containers as it reacts with aluminium to form a thin protective oxide layer on the aluminium surface. This oxide layer renders aluminium passive. (ii) Sodium hydroxide and aluminium react to form sodium tetrahydroxoaluminate(III) and hydrogen gas.</em>
The mass numbers for two isotopes are unequal because they have different numbers of NEUTRONS.
Answer:
D.
Explanation:
Adding more gas particles to a set volume will increase the number of collisions, thus increasing collision force and pressure.
Answer:
1. Ions are either negatively or positively charged species in which the number of electrons and protons are not equal.
2. The chemical bond that arises due to the sharing of electrons is termed a covalent bond.
3. The positively charged ions are called cations, which comprise more protons than electrons.
4. An example of a polyatomic anion is the hydroxide anion.
5. The system of assigning an unambiguous name to a compound is called nomenclature.
