5 electrons

Boron atomic number 5 has five electrons in its ground state.

Commonly Boron will lose 3 electrons leaving 2 electrons in its most common ionic form.

Explanation:

The atomic number gives the number of protons. Protons which have a positive charge are balanced by an equal number of electrons in a neutral atom.

Boron number 5 has five protons and therefore as a neutral atom also has five electrons.

Boron has an electron configuration of

1s22s22p1

The most stable electron configuration for Boron is

1s2

+ 3 charges. By losing three electrons Boron can achieve the stable electron structure of Helium

If 45 mL of water are added to 250 mL of a 0.75 M K2SO4 solution, what will the molarity of the diluted solution be?

krok68 [10]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\large\boxed{0.64M}}$

Explanation:

When you form a diluted solution from a mother (concentrated) solution, the moles of solute are determined by the mother solution.

The main equation is:

$Molarity=\dfrac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{volume of the solution in liters}}$

Then, since the moles of solute is the same for both the mother solution and the diluted solution:

$\text{Molarity mother solution }\times\text{ volume mother solution}=\\\\=\text{Molarity diluted solution }\times\text{ volume diluted solution}$

Substitute and solve for the molarity of the diluted solution:

$250mL\times 0.75M=(45mL+250mL)\times M\\\\\\M=\dfrac{250mL\times 0.75M}{295mL}=0.64M$

When temperatures are below freezing, the temperature at which air becomes saturated leading to the formation of frost is the

12345 [234]

Answer:

The answer is Frost Point.

Explanation:

The temperature to which the air must be cooled, with constant pressure, to reach saturation (in relation to liquid water), is called the dew point. The dew point gives a measure of the water vapor content in the air. The higher, the greater the concentration of water vapor in the air. However, when cooling produces saturation at a temperature of 0 ° C or less, the temperature is called a frost point. The water vapor is deposited as frost on a surface whose temperature is below the dew point.
