The answer is F-1since it is gaining therefore you can take this as electron affinity.

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When an atom or element gains an electron then the atom acquires a negative charge whereas when an atom or element loses an electron then it acquires a positive charge.

for example, atomic number of fluorine is 9 and when it gains one electron then fluorine atom acquires a negative charge. Hence, neutral atom of fluorine changes into F^{-1} ion.

Thus, we can conclude that F^{-1} ion is formed when an atom of fluorine (F) gains one electron.

Which properties are characteristic of metalloids?
Setler [38]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

<u>The right option is</u><u> (C) intermediate conductivity and a high melting point</u>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Metalloids usually look like metals but behave largely like nonmetals. Metalloids are shiny, brittle solids with intermediate good electrical conductivity. Their properties lie between metals and non metals. All metalloids exist as solids at room temperature and they have very high melting points. The physical properties of metalloids are more likely to be metallic, but their chemical properties tend to be non-metallic

List the type of reaction. Predict the outcome and balance.
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

Single Displacement Reaction: a reaction in which an element is swapped for another in a molecule

A + BC ---> AC + B

Double Displacement Reaction: a reaction in which the cation of one molecule is swapped with a cation of another molecule

AB + CD ---> AD + CB

a) Single Displacement Reaction

3 Ca + 2 AlBr₃ ----> 3 CaBr₂ + 2 Al

b) Single Displacement Reaction

2 Al + 3 MgSO₄ ----> Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 3 Mg

c) Double Displacement Reaction

AgNO₃ + KCl ----> AgCl + KNO₃

How many moles in 500l of ar gas?
Alex
Assuming conditions are at 25c and 1 bar 101.25 Kpa 1 mole of gas is equal to 22.4 L

So if you have 500L of ar gas the you have : 500L / 22.4 × 1 Mole = 22.3 moles of ar after accounting for sig figs..Hope that helps

How many moles of ammonia are there in a 346 g sample of pure nh3?
Citrus2011 [14]
Molar mass NH3 = 17.031 g/mol

1 mole NH3 -------------- 17.031 g
?? moles NH3 ---------- 346 g

346 x 1 / 17.031

=> 20.31 moles of NH3
