Why calcium is more reactive thanmagnesium?​

Chemistry

Setler [38]2 years ago

Mg is 3 and they are two electrons in its outermost energy level. On the other hand, energy level of Ca is 4 and there are two electrons in its outermost level. In spite same number of electrons in their outermost levels, attraction between the nucleus and valence electrons of Mg is higher than that of Ca.

Answer:

Ca is more reactive because it has a lower

ionization energy than Mg. This is because it is lower in the periodic table. The added central electrons added over the extra period provide shielding in the center of the atom

How many milliliters of 0.100 m naoh are required to neutralize 9.00 ml of 0.0500 m hcl?
BabaBlast [244]
V  ( NaOH ) = mL ?

M ( NaOH ) = 0.100 M

V ( HCl ) = 9.00 mL / 1000 => 0.009 L

M ( HCl ) = 0.0500 M

number of moles HCl:

n = M x V

n = 0.009 x 0.0500 => 0.00045 moles HCl

mole ratio:

<span>HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O
</span>
 1 mole HCl ---------------- 1 mole NaOH
 0.00045 moles HCl ----- ??

0.00045 x 1 / 1 => 0.00045 moles of NaOH

M = n / V

0.100 = 0.00045 / V

V = 0.00045 / 0.100

V = 0.0045 L

1 L ------------ 1000 mL
0.0045 L ----- ??

0.0045 x 1000 / 1 => 4.5 mL of NaOH

Classify each cation as a weak acid or pH neutral (neither acidic nor basic).
Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

a. Na+ is pH neutral

b. Ni2+ = weak acid

c. NH4+ = Weak acid

Explanation:

To know the nature of the cation we need to find the nature of its conjugate base.

If the conjugate base of the ion is a strong base, the ion is neutral.

If the conjugate base is a weak base, the ion is a weak acid:

a. Conjugate base Na+ = NaOH

Sodium hydroxide is a strong base:

Na+ is pH neutral

b. Conjugate base Ni²⁺: Ni(OH)2 is a weak base because is not completely soluble in water. That means:

Ni2+ = weak acid

c. Conjugate base NH4+: NH4OH. Weak base:

NH4+ = Weak acid
