Explanation:
Radium (atomic number 88) has similar properties to barium and is also in the Group 2 category. However, radium is a radioactive element and is generally under the category of radioisotopes in addition to being an alkaline earth metal, because it is not a stable element.
Answer:
Of bond is formed by sharing of electrons - covalent
If bond is formed by donation and by accepting electrons - ionic bond
Bond formed between metals - metallic bond.
Answer:
amount, pH value.
Explanation:
The buffer range is the pH range in which the buffer performs optimally, i.e., neutralizes even when a strong acid or base is introduced to it and resists any major change in its pH value.
The buffer capacity is the amount of acid or base that can be added before the pH of the buffer solution changes significantly.
Thus, the final statement becomes,
Buffer capacity is the amount of acid or base a buffer can handle before pushing the pH value outside of the buffer range.
