Answer:

The electrostatic force of attraction present between the oppositely charged atoms or ions makes them stick together. Generally, atoms are electrically neutral (have equal number of electrons and protons). However, if an atom loses or gains an electron it will become a charged atom or ion.

The answer is b since on a it says H2 but on the right side there is no H idk if you forgot to put H there so im guessing b. Have a good day

What type of chemical bond would form between an atom of lithium (Li) and an atom of chlorine (Cl). Explain specifically why thi

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Explanation:

When a bond is formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to another then it results in the formation of an ionic bond.

An ionic bond is generally formed by a metal and a non-metal.

For example, lithium is an alkali metal with atomic number 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1.

And, chlorine is a non-metal with atomic number 17 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 7.

So, in order to complete their octet lithium needs to lose an electron and chlorine needs to gain an electron.

Hence, both of then on chemically combining together results in the formation of an ionic compound that is, lithium chloride (LiCl).

An ionic compound is formed by LiCl because lithium has donated its valence electron to the chlorine atom.

On the other hand, if a bond is formed by sharing of electrons between the two chemically combining atoms then it is known as a covalent bond.

For example, $O_{2}$ is a covalent compound as electrons are being shared by each oxygen atom.

What is the pH of a solution with a H+ ion of 2×10-¹²?

kap26 [50]

Answer:

11.7

Explanation:

The pH is the negative logarithm of the concentration of H+ ions. If the concentration is 2×10-¹² the the pH will be -log(2×10-¹²) which is 11.698 which can be round up to 11.7.
