The correct answer is a metal atom forms a cation, and a nonmetal atom forms an anion. This is because metals are less electronegative than nonmetals and will therefore give electrons to nonmetals. Atoms that give up electrons will have a positive charge therefore becoming a cation while atoms that accept electrons will have a negative charge therefore becoming an anion.
Ions that have the same charge can't be attracted to each other since it takes a positive and negative charge to cause attractive forces.
A less electronegative atom will transfer electrons to a more electronegative atom.
A metal (cation) can pull electrons from another metal (not an ion) but that does not form an attractive force between the two metals (You will learn more about this when you go over reduction potentials, redox reactions, and electrochemistry).
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
Step 1 : write a valanced equation..
NaOH + HCl 》NaCl + H2O
Step 2 : find the number of mole of HCl..
1000 ml ..contains 4.3 mole
15ml... (4.3÷1000)×15 =...
Stem 3 : use mole ratio....
HCl : NaOH
1 : 1
So mole is same as calculated above...
Step 4 :
3.5 mole of NaOH is in 1000ml
(4.3÷1000)×15 mole is in ....
Do the calculation
Answer:C. The value of n for H+(H2O)n can be calculated for almost all solutions.
Explanation:
An hydrate can be described as a substance that contains water or with an hydrogen bonded water molecule group.
The hydrate group doesn't necessarily have a fixed formula.
Answer:
1.12g/mol
Explanation:
The freezing point depression of a solvent for the addition of a solute follows the equation:
ΔT = Kf*m*i
<em>Where ΔT is change in temperature (Benzonitrile freezing point: -12.82°C; Freezing point solution: 13.4°C)</em>
<em>ΔT = 13.4°C - (-12.82) = 26.22°C</em>
<em>m is molality of the solution</em>
<em>Kf is freezing point depression constant of benzonitrile (5.35°Ckgmol⁻¹)</em>
<em>And i is Van't Hoff factor (1 for all solutes in benzonitrile)</em>
Replacing:
26.22°C = 5.35°Ckgmol⁻¹*m*1
4.90mol/kg = molality of the compound X
As the mass of the solvent is 100g = 0.100kg:
4.9mol/kg * 0.100kg = 0.490moles
There are 0.490 moles of X in 551mg = 0.551g, the molar mass (Ratio of grams and moles) is:
0.551g / 0.490mol
= 1.12g/mol
<em>This result has no sense but is the result by using the freezing point of the solution = 13.4°C. Has more sense a value of -13.4°C.</em>
