The following figure represents the formation of an ionic compound. Substances A and B are initially uncharged, but when mixed e

lectrons are transferred. Using the figure, identify which substance will form the cation and which will form the anion. Provide a brief (one or two sentences) explanation for your response. (Hint: How does losing electrons affect atomic radii?)

Answer:

This question is incomplete

Explanation:

This question is incomplete but some general explanation provides a clear answer to what is been asked in the question.

An ionic/electrovalent compound is a compound whose constituent atoms are joined together by ionic bond. Ionic bond is a bond involving the transfer of valence electron(s) from an atom (to form a positively charged cation) to another  atom (to form a  negatively charged anion). The atom transferring is usually a metal while the atom receiving is usually a non-metal.

For example (as shown in the attachment), in the formation of NaCl salt, the sodium (Na) transfers the single electron (valence) on it's outermost shell to chlorine (Cl) which ordinarily has 7 electrons on it's outermost shell but becomes 8 after receiving the valence electron from sodium. It should also be noted that Na is a metal while Cl is a non-metal.

Intermolecular forces between particles are​
WITCHER [35]

Explanation:

Intermolecular forces hold multiple molecules together and determine many of a substance's properties. All of the attractive forces between neutral atoms and molecules are known as van der Waals forces, although they are usually referred to more informally as intermolecular attraction.

Intermolecular forces are the forces of attraction or repulsion which act between neighboring particles (atoms, molecules, or ions ). These forces are weak compared to the intramolecular forces, such as the covalent or ionic bonds between atoms in a molecule.

What is the net amount of energy released when one mole of h2o(?) is produced?
german
The net amount of energy produced can be obtained from a table of enthalpy change of formation, available online.

The enthalpy change of formation indicate how much energy the 1 mole of the product (H2O) has relative to the elemental reactants (H2 and O2).  In other words, the "lost" energy equals the heat/energy released. 

For water (H2O), this value is -285.8 if the final product is a liquid under standard conditions, and -241.82 if the product is in gas form which contains some energy that could be further released.  This means that if the final product (H2O) is in liquid form, energy released is 285.8 kJ/mol.

Since water is in liquid form under standard conditions, the first value (285.8 kJ/mol) is generally appropriate.
