Which needs two less valence electrons to complete an octet, X+2?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vladimir79 [104]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is Ca

Explanation:

Ne  has its octet completed so, this option is wrong. Neon is stable.

C  Carbon has 4 valence electrons not 2, it should lose 4 electrons to complete an octet, so this option is wrong.

N  Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons not 2 , so it should gain 3 electrons to complete an octet.

Ca Calcium is the right answer it has to electrons in its outermost shell, it have to lose 2 electrons to complete an octet.

A 25.0 mL sample of sulfuric acid is completely neutralized by adding 32.8 mL of 0.116 mol/L ammonia solution. Ammonium sulfate
Paul [167]

Answer:

0.08 mol L-1

Explanation:

Sulfuric acid Formula: H2SO4

Ammonia Formula: NH3

Ammonium sulfate Formula: (NH₄)₂SO₄

H2SO4 + 2NH3 = 2NH4+ + SO4 2-

H2SO4 + 2NH3 = (NH₄)₂SO₄

H2SO4 = (1/2)x (32.8 x 10^-3 L x 0.116 mol L-1)/25 x 10^-3 L

= 0.08 mol L-1

A chemist has 3.55x1022 molecules of nitrogen monoxide. How
Alina [70]

Answer:

<h2>0.059 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{3.55 \times  {10}^{22} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 0.05897...

We have the final answer as

<h3>0.059 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

1. Which of the following pairs of factors affects the solubility of a particular substance? (1 point)
Lina20 [59]
<h2>Question no 1:</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option A which is temperature and the nature of solute and solvent

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The solubility of a substance is its ability to dissolve in a particular solution.
  • Solubility is highly dependent on the temperature and nature of solute and solvent.
  • It is directly proportional to the temperature. As we increase the temperature, the solubility of substantial increases but for the exothermic reactions, solubility is inversely proportional to temperature.
  • Solubility is absolutely dependent on the nature of solute and solvent, as polar solute and solvents have high solubility than non polar.
<h2>Question no. 2</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option B which is a large amount of solute.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • A concentrated solution contains the maximum amount of solute which can be dissolved in the solvent.
  • For example, in water sugar solution concentrated solution will contain a large amount of sugar dissolved in water without the addition of heat.
  • In dilute solution, there is a small amount of solute.
<h2>Question no. 3:</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option B which is molarity × liters of solution.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Molarity of a solution is the total number of moles of solute per unit volume of solution.

Its formula is:

             Molarity = Number of moles of the solute/volume of solution in liters.

    A number of moles of solute =  Molarity × Volume of the solution.

So the number of moles of solute is equal to the molarity and volume of solution. Hence correct option is B.

<h2>Question no 4.</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option D. Molarity of the dilute solution = 0.81 M

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Given data:

        initial volume = V1 = 225 mL = 0.225 L

        Initial molarity = M1 = 0.80M

        Final volume =  V2 = 1 L

        Final molarity  = M2 = ?

Solution:

It is the dilution of the stock solution and the formula is given below:

V1M1 = V2M2

M2 = V1.M1/V2

By putting values in the formula:

M2 = 0.225 × 0.8/1

M2= 0.18

So the final molarity of the solution will be 0.18 M. Hence the correct answer is option D.

<h2>Question no. 5</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option B which is supersaturation.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Colligative properties of the solution are the properties which are not dependent on the number of particles of the solute in the solution.
  • While supersaturation of the solution means the solution containing the highest number of solute particles dissolved in the solution.
  • Since supersaturation is dependent on a number of solutes, it is not a colligative property.
<h2>Question no 6.</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option B/C, "which disrupts crystal formation of the solvent".

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Depression of freezing point is the colligative property of the solution.
  • Which the lowering of the freezing point of a solution by adding the solute.
  • The addition of solute disrupts the crystal formation in the solvent, as it disrupts the intermolecular forces between solute particles.
  • Hence option B and C are the correct options because both have the same statement.
<h2>Question no 7.</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

The correct answer is option D which is 142.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Given data:</u>

Volume of solution = 167 ml

Percentage of solution = 85%

The volume of alcohol =?

<u>Solution:</u>

Percentage of solution ( v/v) = volume of solute/volume of solution × 100

The volume of solute = percentage × volume of solution/100

By putting values in above formula:

Volume of alcohol = 85 × 167/100 = 141.95 ml

<em><u>Hence the correct answer is option D which is approximately 142(141.95).</u></em>

Why would heating up the human body be a bad choice for causing a chemical reaction?
Furkat [3]

Answer:

Explained below

Explanation:

The human body has a normal core temperature of around 37°C to 38°C.

Now, if it is heated up to say 39° to 40°C, fatigue will start to set in and the brain begins to tell the muscles to slow down.

If it's now heated to higher temperatures above above 41°C, the body will begin to experience heat exhaustion and therefore will start to shut down.

Due to this process, the body can't even sweat at that stage because blood flow to the skin will stops thereby making the body feel cold and clammy. Thus, chemical processes/reaction in the body will begin to be affected and the cells inside the body will start to deteriorate and thus there is now a huge risk of having multiple organ failure.
