Milk of magnesia is a sparingly soluble suspension of magnesium hydroxide in water. it acts as an antacid by neutralizing hydroc

hloric acid (hcl) in the stomach. which is the best explanation of how milk of magnesia neutralizes the conjugate acid produced by hcl and h2o in the stomach

The milk of magnesia is a suspension of magnesium hydroxide in water, which is a strong base that is used to neutralize excess stomach acid. The presence of stomach acid or hydrochloric acid (HCl) that is known to be a strong acid will react with the strong base and neutralization reaction occurs since conjugate partners produced negligible strength where the products are a salt and water.

Bonds between carbon and oxygen are more polar than bonds between sulfur and oxygen. nevertheless, sulfur dioxide (so2) exhibits
Zepler [3.9K]

Bonds between carbon and oxygen are more polar than bonds between sulfur and oxygen. nevertheless, sulfur dioxide (SO₂) exhibits a dipole moment while carbon dioxide (CO₂) does not because of the difference in their shape, CO₂ is having linear geometry thus exhibit zero dipole moment while SO₂ is having bent shape thus exhibit dipole moment. So, despite the fact that bonds between carbon and oxygen are more polar than bonds between sulfur and oxygen. nevertheless, sulfur dioxide (SO₂) exhibits a dipole moment while carbon dioxide (CO₂) does not.

58. Explain why each successive ionization of an electron
ale4655 [162]

Answer:

It's because removal of electron from an atom, reduces the size of an atom.

Explanation:

When an electron is removed from an atom, it becomes an ion and in this case it will become a postive ion.

When an electron is removed from an atom, the charge balance of an atom is disturbed and positive charge increases in comparison to the negative charge. This results in increase nuclear (positive) charge which exerts greater attraction on the remaining electrons and as a result the remaining electrons are more strongly attracted by the nucleus and in this way the atomic size is decreased. Due to this increased nuclear attraction and reduced atomic size, it bcomes difficult to remove more electeon from the positively charged ion of reduced size. This is the reason that each successive ionization of electron requires a greater amount of energy.

The ionization energy has inverse relation with the size or radius of an atom. This also justifies the reason that why each successive ionization of an electron requires greater amount of energy.
