Answer:
In Cl
, the 2 is a subscript because it indicates there are 2 of the same elements. The Lewis structure would display it as Cl-Cl.
On the other hand, a superscript would indicate a specific charge.
All subscripts show the amount of the specific element there is.
An example would be O
or N
, they both show that there are 2 of the same elements.
If the subscript is outside a parenthesis such as
it indicates there are 2
molecules.
Answer:
c. 0.2 M HNO₃ and 0.4 M NaF
.
Explanation:
A buffer is defined as the mixture of a weak acid with its conjugate base or a weak base with its conjugate acid.
A weak acid or weak base are defined as an acid or base that partially dissociates in aqueous solution. in contrast, a strong acid or base are acids or bases that is dissociated completely in water.
Thus:
a. 0,2M HNO₃ and 0.4 M NaNO₃. This is a mixture of a strong acid with its conjugate base. <em>IS NOT </em>a buffer.
b. 0.2 M HNO₃ and 0.4 M HF
. This is a mixture of two strong acids. <em>IS NOT </em>a buffer.
c. 0.2 M HNO₃ and 0.4 M NaF
. NaF is the conjugate base of a weak acid as HF is.
The reaction of HNO₃ with NaF is:
HNO₃ + NaF → HF + NaNO₃
That means that in solution you will have a weak acid (HF) with its conjugate base (NaF). Thus, this mixture <em>IS </em>a buffer.
d. 0.2 M HNO₃ and 0.4 M NaOH. This is the mixture of a strong acid with a strong base, thus, this <em>IS NOT </em>a buffer.

Answer:-
Neon is a noble gas. Neon with an electronic configuration of 2,8 has 8 electrons in it's outermost shell or valence shell.
According to the Octet theory if an element has eight electrons in it's valence shell then it is stable and does not undergo reaction. Thus Neon does not need to react and can exist freely in nature.
Sodium with an electronic configuration of 2,8,1 has 1 electron in it's valence shell. As per octet rule, it is not stable and it must lose that 1 electron to become stable.
In order to lose that 1 electron sodium must react with other substances. Hence sodium cannot exist freely in nature.
Answer:
Mostly large grains, with a sticky texture, 55% sand, 40% clay, and 5% silt
Explanation: I took the test, hope it helps.
Isotopes are elements with same atomic number but different mass number. Hydrogen and Deuterium are isotopes with same atomic number but different mass number. Hydrogen have atomic number 1 and mass number 1 where as deuterium have atomic number 1 but mass number 2
