Answer:

A solution that contains many dissolved molecules in a fixed amount of solution is called concentrated.

Explanation:

Solutions are homogeneous mixtures.

A solution contains at least one solute component and one solvent component all in the same phase.

The term solubility is used to express the maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in certain amount of solvent, and is measured at a given temperature and pressure.

You may refer to a solution as concentrated or diluted. These are kind of vague terms, in the sense that they do not express how much solute is dissolved. They just tell if there are many dissolved particles (molecules or ions), which is expressed as concentrated, or just a few particle, which is express as diluted.

Other more specific terms used to refer the amount of solute dissolved in a solution are: unsaturated solution, saturated solution, and supersaturated solution.

Unsaturated solution: the solution contains less solute than what it can have. The solution may dissolve more solute.

Saturated solution: the solution has the maximum amount of solute that it can dissolve, at certain temperature and pressure. If you add more solute to a saturated solution, it will not get dissolved (unless you change the temperature or pressure).

Supersaturated solution: a special condition where the solution contains more solute than the saturated solution, at the same temperature and pressure. This is a very unstable situation and any perturbation will make that the excess solute precipitate.

Answer: Another useful feature of the periodic table is that most tables provide all the information you need to balance chemical reactions at a glance. The table tells each element's atomic number and usually its atomic weight. The typical charge of an element is indicated by its group.

EASY AS PIE AND I LIKE PIE

Calcium iodide (CaI2) is an ionic bond, which means that electrons are transferred. In order for Ca to become the ion Ca2+, the calcium atom must lose 2 electrons. (Electrons have a negative charge, so when an atom loses 2 electrons, its ion becomes more positive.) In order for I to become the ion I1−, the iodine atom must gain 1 electron. (When an atom gains an electron, its ion will be more negative.) However, the formula for calcium iodide is CaI2 - there are 2 iodine ions present. This makes sense because the iodine ion has a charge of -1, so two iodine ions have to be present to cancel out the +2 charge of the calcium ion. Therefore, the calcium atom transfers 2 valence electrons, one to each iodine atom, to form the ionic bond.

Answer:

Reagents: 1) $BH_3$ 2) $H_2_O2$ , $OH^-$

Mechanism: Hydroboration

Explanation:

In this case, we have a hydration of alkenes reaction. But, in this example, we have an anti-Markovnikov reaction. In other words, the "OH" is added in the least substituted carbon. Therefore we have to choose an anti-Markovnikov reaction: "hydroboration".

The first step of this reaction is the addition of borane ( $BH_3$ ) to the double bond. Then in the second step, we have the deprotonation of the hydrogen peroxide, to obtain the peroxide anion. In the third step, the peroxide anion attacks the molecule produced in the first step to produce a complex compound in which we have a bond " $BH_2-O-OH$ ". In step number 4 we have the migration of the C-B bond to oxygen. Then in step number 5, we have the attack of $OH^-$ on the $O-BH_2$ to produce an alkoxide. Finally, the water molecule produce in step 2 will protonate the molecule to produce the alcohol.
