Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When two atoms share electrons then it results in the formation of covalent bond. Whereas when there is transfer of electrons between two atoms then it forms an ionic bond.

Sodium is a metal so it has excess of electrons whereas iodine is a non-metal so it is electron deficient.

So, sodium will give its extra electron to iodine thus due to transfer of electron it results in the formation of ionic bond.

How a cation is formed by an atom?​
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Cations are positively charged atoms and hence we need to make the atom positively charged in order to get a cation

We know that an atom is neutral as a whole, so we have equal number of electrons and protons

since we cannot mess with the number of protons in an atom, we have to do it by altering the number of electrons

If we reduce the amount of electrons in an atom, the net charge will be positive and hence a cation will be formed

"A solution with a total volume of 850.0 mL contains 43.5 g Mg(NO3)2. If you remove 25.0 mL of this solution and then dilute thi
ycow [4]

Answer: C = 0.014M

Explanation:

From n= m/M= CV

m =43.5 M= 148, V=850ml

43.5/148= C× 0.85

C= 0.35M

Applying dilution formula

C1V1=C2V2

C1= 0.35, V1= 25ml, C2=?, V2= 600ml

0.35× 25 = C2× 600

C2= 0.014M
