5 0

Answer is: ionic bond.

Ionic bond is the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions, cations (positive ions) and anions (negative ions).

For example compound magnesium chloride (MgCl₂) has ionic bond. Magnesium transfers two electrons, form positive cation Mg²⁺, to chlorine, form anion Cl⁻.

Another example, potassium bromide (KBr) is ionic solid, it has ionic bonds.

Sodium electron configuration in longhand notation
Elden [556K]

Answer:

Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

Explanation:

Sodium is present in group 1.

It is alkali metal.

It has one valence electron.

The atomic number of sodium is 11.

Its atomic mass is 23 amu.

The longhand notation of electronic configuration of sodium can be written as,

Na₁₁ = 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s¹

The electronic configuration in shorthand notation( noble gas) would be written as,

Na₁₁ = [Ne] 3s¹

Sodium loses its one valence electron to complete the octet and get stable thus form +1 cation.

It react with halogen and form salt. Such as sodium chloride.

2Na + Cl₂  →  2NaCl

How does the presence of a catalyst affect the enthalpy of a reaction? Group of answer choices 1. It depends on whether you are
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Option 3. The catalyst does not affect the enthalpy change (\Delta H_\text{rxn}) of a reaction.

Explanation:

As its name suggests, the enthalpy change of a reaction (\Delta H_\text{rxn}) is the difference between the enthalpy of the products and the reactants.

On the other hand, a catalyst speeds up a reaction because it provides an alternative reaction pathway from the reactants to the products.

In effect, a catalyst reduces the activation energy of the reaction in both directions. The reactants and products of the reaction won't change. As a result, the difference in their enthalpies won't change, either. That's the same as saying that the enthalpy change \Delta H_\text{rxn} of the reaction would stay the same.

Refer to an energy profile diagram. Enthalpy change of the reaction \Delta H_\text{rxn} measures the difference between the two horizontal sections. Indeed, the catalyst lowered the height of the peak. However, that did not change the height of each horizontal section or the difference between them. Hence, the enthalpy change of the reaction stayed the same.
