Answer:
pH of HNO₃ having an hydrogen ion concentration of 0.71M is 0.149
Explanation:
HNO₃ (aqueous) ⇄ H⁺ + NO3⁻
The pH is defined as the negative log of the hydrogen ion concentration
pH = - log [H⁺]
From the question, the hydrogen ion concentration is given as 0.71M, therefore
pH = -log [0.71]
= 0.149
Answer:
A positive and negative ion.
Explanation:
Ionic bond:
It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.
Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference.
The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.
For example:
Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion. Sodium have one valance electron while chlorine have 7 valance electrons. In order to complete the octet chlorine require one electron while sodium need to lose its one electrons. That's why when both atom combine sodium lose its electron and becomes positive ion i.e cation while chlorine accept its electron and becomes negative ion called anion and bond between them is ionic bond.
Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction or repulsion which act between neighboring particles (atoms, molecules, or ions ). These forces are weak compared to the intramolecular forces, such as the covalent or ionic bonds between atoms in a molecule.
