There are negative ions and positive ions known as anions and cations.

Atoms of elements (besides the noble gases) are not stable.

These atoms lose or gain electrons to gain the stable electronic configuration of a noble gas which has either 2 electrons or 8 electrons in the valence shell.

Since an atom is neutral, once it loses or gain electrons, it gains charge and is known as an ion

What volume would a sample of gas occupy in LITERS at 0.985 atmospheres and a volume of 3.65 liters if the pressure were raised
musickatia [10]

Answer:

3.18 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial pressure (P₁): 0.985 atm
  • Initial volume (V₁): 3.65 L
  • Final pressure (P₂): 861.0 mmHg
  • Final volume (V₂): ?

Step 2: Convert P₁ to mmHg

We will use the conversion factor 1 atm = 760 mmHg.

0.985 atm × 760 mmHg/1 atm = 749 mmHg

Step 3: Calculate the final volume of the gas

Assuming ideal behavior and constant temperature, we can calculate the final volume using Boyle's law.

P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂

V₂ = P₁ × V₁/P₂

V₂ = 749 mmHg × 3.65 L/861.0 mmHg = 3.18 L

Which statement best describes the properties of sucrose?
crimeas [40]

Answer:

D. They are different from the properties of carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen are all <em>elements. </em>

Sucrose is a <em>compound</em> containing carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen. Its properties are different from those of its elements.

For example, carbon is a <em>black solid,</em> while oxygen and hydrogen are <em>colourless gases</em>. Sucrose is a <em>white solid</em>.

Adding vinegar to baking soda will cause a chemical reaction. Which of these will speed up the reaction?
vesna_86 [32]
When baking soda is mixed with vinegar, something new is formed. The mixture quickly foams up with carbon dioxide gas. If enough vinegar is used, all of the baking soda can be made to react and disappear into the vinegar solution.
