Answer:
Explanation:
Metal elements form positively charged ions called cations because they are located on the left side of the periodic table These elements all have valence electrons in an s orbital. These electrons are relatively easy for the atom to lose to achieve a stable octet of electrons in its outermost energy shell.
Answer: a)
: negative
b)
: positive
c)
: positive.
d)
: negative
e)
: positive.
f)
: positive.
Explanation:
Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy is said to decrease and vice versa.
is positive when randomness increases and
is negative when randomness decreases.
a) 
As ions are moving to solid form , randomness decreases and thus sign of
is negative.
b) 
As solid is changing to gas, randomness increases and thus sign of
is positive.
c) 
As 2 moles of reactants are converted to 4 moles of products , randomness increases and thus sign of
is positive.
d) 
As gas is changing to solid, randomness decreases and thus sign of
is negative.
e) 
As 7 moles of reactants are converted to 8 moles of products , randomness increases and thus sign of
is positive.
f)
As solid is changing to gas, randomness increases and thus sign of
is positive.
Find the hydroxide ion concentration of a solution with a pOH of 5.90. To solve this, use a scientific calculator and enter 5.90 and use the +/- button to make it negative and then press the 10x key.
Answer:
The higher concentrations of greenhouse gases—and carbon dioxide in particular—is causing extra heat to be trapped and global temperatures to rise.
