Your answer would be, Sodium Chloride in Aqueous Solution is represented as, Letter choice(D), NaCI(aq), or as HCI + NaOH + H2O(I) + NaCI(aq)

Hope that helps!!!

Answer: D.NaCl (aq)

Explanation: In Sodium chloride

Sodium atom has oxidation number of +1.

Electronic configuration of sodium:

$[Na]=1s^22s^22p^63s^1$

Sodium atom will loose one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form sodium cation with +1 charge.

$[Na^+]=1s^22s^22p^63s^0$

Chlorine atom has oxidation number of -1.

Electronic configuration of sodium:

$[Cl]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^5$

Chlorine atom will gain one electron to gain noble gas configuration and form chloride ion with -1 charge.

$[Cl^-]=1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^6$

In sodium chloride the one electron from sodium metal gets transferred to chlorine atom to form ionic compound.

Ionic compounds dissociate to give ions when dissolved in water and thus are written as NaCl (aq).

What type of bond is this combination likely to form

kari74 [83]

Answer:

A combination is certainly possible, but you should not take formal charges so literally

Normally, when a covalent bond is found, the two atoms both bring in one electron. As you identify correctly, in the case of nitric acid that would not be possible completely. If you draw the different possible resonance structures, the most likely structure has a single bond between the nitrogen and an oxygen where the oxygen has 3 lone pairs and both electrons in the bond are donated by the nitrogen. This makes the nitrogen "positive" and that oxygen "negative", but in fact the electrons move more freely in the molecule and charges are more distributed. You will not be able to find "the negatively charged" oxygen atom.

What is the sum of the coefficients of the balanced equation for:

Marianna [84]

Answer:

3 Pb(NO3)2 + Al2(SO4)3 = 2 Al(NO3)3 + 3 PbSO4

Explanation:

I think your equation is incorrect? This is balanced and the sum of coefficients is 9.

If heat is supplied to the stillpot too rapidly, the ability to separate two liquids by fractional distillation may be drastical

hram777 [196]

Answer: The boiling points of the two liquids are quickly exceeded

Explanation:

Fractional distillation is a method of separating a mixture of liquids where each has different boiling points.

To therefore obtain individual fractions, temperature rise of the mixture must be gradual, otherwise the boiling points of the two liquids will be quickly exceeded making collection of each fraction impossible.

Lewis acids and bases are most closely associated with which process?

Evgen [1.6K]

Lewis acids and bases are most closely associated with ELECTRON TRANSFER. A Lewis acid is defined as as a chemical specie that can accept an electron pair from a Lewis base to form a Lewis adduct while a Lewis base is defined as a specie which can donate an electron pair to a Lewis acid or an acceptor compound. Thus, Lewis base and acid has to do with electrons transfer.

If an atom has 7 protons, 8 neutrons, and 10 electrons, then it has a net charge of . On the other hand, if an atom has 3 proton

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

Neutrons play no role in the net charge of an atom, so you can ignore them here.

Proton = 7

Electron = 10

Net Charge = 7 - 10

= -3

Again,

Proton = 3

Electron = 2

Net Charge = 3 - 2

= 1
