Boric acid, H3BO3, in aqueous solution would only give out one H+ ion. As it is also produce OH ion and by hydrolysis it produces one proton. <span>All the boron compounds (BX3) are having only 6 valence electrons in it and should follow the octet rule by taking another electron.</span>
B(OH)3 + 2 H2O → B(OH)4− + H3O
Answer:
The possible valances can be determined by electron configuration and electron negativity
Good Luck even though this was asked 2 weeks ago
Explanation:
All atoms strive for stability. The optima electron configuration is the electron configuration of the VIII A family or inert gases.
Look at the electron configuration of the nonmetal and how many more electrons the nonmetal needs to achieve the stable electron configuration of the inert gases. Non metals tend to be negative in nature and gain electrons. ( They are oxidizing agents)
For example Florine atomic number 9 needs one more electron to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Flowrine has a valance of -1
Oxygen atomic number 8 needs two more electrons to reach a valance number of 8 electrons to equal Neon atomic number 10. Hence Oxygen has a valance charge of -2.
Non metals with a low electron negativity will lose electrons when reacting with another non metal that has a higher electron negativity. When the non metal forms an ion it is necessary to look at the electron structure to determine how many electrons the element can lose to gain stability.
For example Chlorine which is normally -1 like Florine when it combines with oxygen can be +1, +3, + 5 or +7. It can lose its one unpaired electron, or combinations of the unpaired electron and sets of the three pairs of electrons.
Once the substance stops dissolving, the system is at equlibrium with the water and the undissolved salt now, if it is in the process of dissolving because it is completely soluble but has not been able to completely dissolve, it is not at equilibrium
Answer:
one advantage of KLO3 as a primary standard is that it is used to know concentration of a solution.
Explanation:
The reaction provides confirmation that the solution is at a specific concentration. Primary standards are often used to make standard solutions (a solution with a precisely known concentration
The formula that correctly represents the product of an addition reaction between ethene and chlorine is C2H4Cl2
Addition reaction occurs when an atom is added to a compound that has a double bond or triple bond (unsaturated hydrocarbons). Unsaturated compounds are associated with addition reactions. For example Ethene is an example of unsaturated hydrocarbon; when reacted with chlorine gas , chlorine atoms are added to each carbon atoms.
