2Na+Cl-(l) → 2Na(s)+Cl2(g)
Sodium ions gain electrons (reduction) to form sodium atoms. Chloride ions lose electrons (oxidation) to form chlorine atoms.
The chlorine atoms combine to form molecules of chlorine gas.

Identify each of the following compounds as: (a) a nonelectrolyte: lactose (c12h22o11) potassium chloride (kcl) lactic acid (hc3

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Nonelectrolytes are compounds that do not tend to get ionize in all solution. As a result, solutions which contains nonelectrolytes will not conduct electricity.

Ionic compounds dissolve in water and break into the constituent ions through the process called ionization. Now These electrolyte solutions can either be acids, or bases, or salts.

If the process of ionization produces a large no. of ions in the solution, it is a strong electrolyte. On the other hand, if it produces only a few ions, the solution is a weak electrolyte,

Potassium chloride (KCL) is a strong electrolyte,

Lactic acid (HC3H503) is a weak electrolyte,

Whereas, Ethanol (C3H7OH) is a non electrolyte,

Dimethylamine (CH3)2NH is a weak electrolyte,

Sodium hydroxide(NaOH) is a strong electrolyte.

There are ________ σ bonds and ________ π bonds in h3c-ch2-ch=ch-ch2-c≡ch.

FrozenT [24]

The number of sigma and pi bonds are,

Sigma Bonds = 16

Pi Bonds = 3

Explanation:
Every first bond formed between two atoms is sigma. Pi bond is formed when already a sigma bond is there. While in case of Alkyne (triple Bond) there is one sigma and one pi bond already present, so the third bond is formed by second side-to-side overlap of orbitals, hence, a second pi bond is formed.
Below all black bonds are sigma bonds, while in alkene there is one pi bond and in alkyne there are two pi bonds.
