What is an ionic bond

Chemistry
2 answers:
Serggg [28]3 years ago
8 0
Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion

How does the total volume of gas particles compare to the volume of the space between gas particles?
saw5 [17]
Answer:
             There is more space between gas particles than the size of the particles.

Explanation:
                   This scenario can be understand by taking a very simple example. As we know that 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure occupy 22.4 liters of volume. Lets take Hydrogen gas and Oxygen gas, 1 mole of each gas will occupy same volume. Why it is so? Why same volume although Oxygen is 16 times more heavier? This is because the space between gas molecules is very large. Approximately the distance between gas molecules is 300 times greater than their own diameter from its neighbor molecules.

Answer:

When nitric acid combine with sodium hydroxide the salt formed is called sodium nitrate. option B

Explanation:

It is the strong acid strong base reaction. When acid and base react with each other salt and water are formed.

In given reaction  nitric acid combine with sodium hydroxide base and form sodium nitrate salt and water.

Chemical equation:

HNO₃(aq) + NaOH(aq)       →      NaNO₃(aq) + H₂O(l)

Ionic equation:

H⁺NO₃⁻(aq) + Na⁺OH⁻(aq)       →      Na⁺NO₃⁻(aq) + H₂O(l)

Net ionic equation:

H⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)   →   H₂O(l)

The Na⁺(aq) and NO₃⁻(aq) are spectator ions that's why these are not written in net ionic equation. The water can not be splitted into ions because it is present in liquid form.

Spectator ions:

These ions are same in both side of chemical reaction. These ions are cancel out. Their presence can not effect the equilibrium of reaction that's why these ions are omitted in net ionic equation.

Complete and balance the following redox reaction in basic solution
inn [45]

Answer:

balanced in ACID not BASE

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Answer

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Explanation:

Cr2O7^2-(aq) + Hg(l) ----> Hg^2+(aqH) + Cr^3+(aq)

add H^1+ (acid) to capture the O and make 7 water molecules

Cr2O7^2-(aq) + Hg(l) + H^1+ ----> Hg^2+(aqH) + Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Cr goes from +6 to +3 by gaining 3 e

Hg goes from 0 to +2 by losing 2 e

we need 3 Hg for every 2 Cr

so

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

2 Cr on the right and left

Net 12 positive charges on the right and the left

3 Hg on the right and left

14 H on the right and left

the equation is balanced

we cannot balance the equation in a basic solution with OH^1-

we have plenty of O in the dichromate ion. we need to convert it to water which take free H^1+ from the acid

A prion is an infectious self-reproducing protein structure. true or false
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

True is the correct answer.

Explanation:

  • The statement that a prion is an infectious, self-reproducing protein structure is true.
  • prion is an infectious particle and they do not have genetic material.
  • Prion present in the brain region that results in deadly neurodegenerative illnesses in humans and animals.
  • Prions are the self-producing proteinaceous infectious capable of transferring infection in the absence of the nucleic acids.
  • prions enter in the brain by an infection and they emerge from the variation in the gene that encodes the protein and once the prions present in the brain multiply by causing the benign proteins to refold into an abnormal form.
