Answer:

Bi2(SO4)3

Explanation:

Bismuth(iii) sulfate is an ionic compound therefore, their is transfer of electron. Ionic compound has both cations and anions. The cations is positively charged ion while the anions is negatively charged ions. The cations loses electron to become positively charged while the anions gains electron to become negatively charged.

From the compound above, Bismuth(iii) sulfate the cations will be Bismuth ion which loses 3 electrons. The anions is the sulfate ion (S04)2- with a -2 charge.

The chemical formula can be computed from the charge configuration as follows

Bi3+  and (SO4)2-

cross multiply the charges living the sign behind to get the chemical formula

Bi2(SO4)3

Note the final chemical formula, the numbers are sub scripted

Answer:

Option D. pH= 1.3 strong acid

Explanation:

From the question given:

The hydrogen ion concentration [H+] = 0.05 M

pH = —Log [H+]

pH = —Log 0.05

pH = 1.3

Since the pH lies between 0 and 7, the solution is acidic. Since the pH value is low, the solution is a strong acid

How many electrons will a metal generally have in its outer energy level?
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

Metals have one or two electrons in their outermost shell

C. 1-2

Explanation:

  • Metals have low ionisation energy because they easily looses the outermost electrons
  • They have only one- two electrons in the outer most shell.
  • They loose these electron to form charged species called cation.

Why are group 1a (1) and group 2a (2) elements found in many compounds, but not group 8a (18) elements?
Rashid [163]
Because group 1a and 2a are most reactive due to their least number of electrons in their outmost shell compared to group 8a(18)

Hybridization of NH3​
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Sp3 hybridization

Explanation:

The NH3 molecule, which consists of one lone pairs and three bond pair of electron on its valance shell due to lone pair bond pair repulsion makes bond angle of 107.5°resulting distorted tetrahedral geometry.

Hybridization =no. of bond pair +lone pair=3+1=4=sp3 hybridization
