Answer:
The proton remains the same.
Explanation:
Oxidation is simply defined as the loss of electron(s) during a chemical reaction either by an atom, molecule or ion.
Oxidation is strictly on the transfer of electron(s) and not proton.
A metal that undergoes oxidation still has its protons intact otherwise it will not be called the ion of the metal since atomic number is called the proton number.
Sodium (Na) undergoes oxidation as follow:
Na —> Na+ + e-
Na is called sodium metal.
Na+ is called sodium ion.
Na has 11 electrons and 11 protons
Na+ has 10 electrons and 11 protons
From the above illustration, we can see that the protons of Na and Na+ are the same why their electrons differ because Na+ indicates that 1 electron has been loss or transferred.
1000 is the answer to the queshtion
Answer:
-3.82ºC is the freezing point of solution
Explanation:
We work with the Freezing point depression to solve the problem
ΔT = m . Kf . i
ΔT = Freezing point of pure solvent - freezing point of solution
Let's find out m, molality (moles of solute in 1kg of solvent)
15 g / 58.45 g/mol = 0.257 moles of NaCl
NaCl(s) → Na⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻(aq)
i = 2 (Van't Hoff factor, numbers of ions dissolved)
m = mol /kg → 0.257 mol / 0.250kg = 1.03 m
Kf = Cryoscopic constant → 1.86 ºC/m (pure, for water)
0ºC - Tºf = 1.03m . 1.86ºC/m . 2
Tºf = -3.82ºC
