Why are negative ions usually larger than positive ions

Chemistry
1 answer:
olga nikolaevna [1]4 years ago
6 0
<span>In a negative ion, or anion, electron(s) have been added to the atom. This means </span><span>the like charges within the electron cloud are now repelling each other more </span><span>than they were before. The proton count, however, has not changed. So, the </span><span>electron cloud, in response to the added electron(s) expands with that extra </span><span>repulsion. the negative Ions will have gained an electron fill an electron </span><span>shell while a positive Ion will have lost an electron in order to shed its </span><span>outermost shell, thereby making the atom smaller.

Hope this helps!

The molarity of the acid given the data from the question is 0.30 M

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

2HNO₃ + Ba(OH)₂ —> Ba(NO₃)₂ + 2H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

  • The mole ratio of the acid, HNO₃ (nA) = 2
  • The mole ratio of the base, Ba(NO₃)₂ (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the molarity of the acid</h3>

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

  • Volume of acid, HNO₃ (Va) = 39.7 mL
  • Volume of base, Ba(NO₃)₂ (Vb) = 24 mL
  • Molarity of base, Ba(NO₃)₂ (Cb) = 0.250 M
  • Molarity of acid, HNO₃ (Ma) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(Ma × 39.7) / (0.25 × 24) = 2

(Ma × 39.7) / 6 = 2

Cross multiply

Ma × 39.7 = 6 × 2

Ma × 39.7 = 12

Divide both side by 39.7

Ma = 12 / 39.7

Ma = 0.30 M
