Answer:

Explanation:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. It is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion. Both atoms are bonded together electrostatic attraction occur between anion and cations.

Sodium atom have one valance electron by losing this one valance electron sodium atom get the complete octet. Chlorine atom has seven valance electrons and needed to lose seven valance electrons or to get one electron and thus complete the octet. It is very easy for chlorine atom to get one electrons instead of losing all seven electron. Thus when it react with sodium it gain the valance electron of sodium and form ionic compound.

That's why only one atom of  sodium combine with one atom chlorine.

How do forces between particles in gases compare to forces in the other states of matter?​
Zarrin [17]

The forces in gases are weaker than forces in solids and liquids.

Because they have more kinetic energy that overcomes the force of attraction.

If you start with 100 grams of hydrogen-3, how many grams will you have after 24.6 years?
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

The mass left after 24.6 years is 25.0563 grams

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass of the hydrogen-3 = 100 grams

The half life of hydrogen-3 which is also known as = 12.32 years

The formula for calculating half-life is given as follows;

N(t) = N_0 \times \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2} }} }

Where;

N(t) = The mass left after t years

N₀ =  The initial mass of the hydrogen-3 = 100 g

t = Time duration of the decay = 24.6 years

t_{\frac{1}{2} } = Half-life = 12.32 years

N(24.6) = 100 \times \left (\dfrac{1}{2} \right )^{\dfrac{24.6}{12.32}} } = 25.0563

The mass left after 24.6 years = 25.0563 grams.

If 0.25 liters of solution contains 0.030 moles of KOH what is the molarity of the solution?
sdas [7]

Answer:

The molarity of the solution is 0,12 M.

Explanation:

We calculate the molarity, which is a concentration measure that indicates the moles of solute (in this case KOH) in 1000ml of solution (1 liter):

0,25 L solution----- 0,030 moles of KOH

1 L solution----x= (1 L solution x 0,030 moles of KOH)/0,25 L solution

x= 0,12 moles of KOH ---> <em>The solution is 0,12 M</em>
