False.
Na does represent sodium, but NOT when it lost an electron. Na+ represents sdoium when it lost its electron.

Why boron trifluoride is nonpolar and sulphur dioxide is polar

ella [17]

it small because that bond is not very polar notice that all of those arrows they cancel. because they point in opposite directions. that's why BH 3 is nonpolar if we were to draw the Lewis structure of bf3. ... so even though the boron fluorine bond is polar the molecule as a whole is nonpolar.

What is true when an element is oxidized? It bonds with the hydroxide ion. It loses electrons to another element. It reacts with

Mama L [17]

Answer: It loses electrons to another element.

Explanation:- Oxidation is the process in which an element loses electrons and there is an increase in the oxidation state. On losing electrons it combines with a electronegative element such as oxygen, sulphur or nitrogen etc.

$Fe\rightarrow Fe^{2+}+2e^-$

Reduction is the process in which an element gains electrons and there is a decrease in the oxidation state.

$\frac{1}{2}O_2+2e^-\rightarrow O^{2-}$

torisob [31]

Pieces of copper, silver and gold are dropped into a solution of iron sulphate. The piece that will get a coating of copper is. ... Therefore, none of the three metals can displace iron from its salt solution. Hence, we observe that no reaction takes place and none of the pieces get coated.

How many liters of O2 at 298 K and 1.00 bar are produced in 1.50 hr in an electrolytic cell operating at a current of 0.0200 A?

stellarik [79]

Answer: 0.0069L

Explanation:

2H2O(l) ---->O2(g) + 4H+(aq) + 4e-

no of moles= it/eF

NO of moles of O2 produced = (Current in Ampere x Time in second)/ (Faraday constant x Number of electrons required)

Moles of O2 produced = (0.02x (60 x 60X1.5 s)/(96485 x 4)

= 0.0002798 moles= 2.798x 10 ^-4moles

Using ideal gas equation,

P V = n R T

Where, P is the pressure,

V is the volume,

n is the number of moles,

R is the gas constant, and T is the temperature

We have, 1 bar = 0.986923 atm

Substituting the values,

V = nRT/P = (2.798 x 10-4moles x 0.08205 L atm mol K x 298 K)/ 0.986923 atm = 0.0069L

Volume of O2 produced = 0.0069L
