Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

           pH = 3.50

Unknown:

    concentration of [H₃0⁺] = ?

    concentration of [OH⁻] = ?

Solution:

In order to find the unknown, we use some simple expressions which best explains the pH scale and the equilibrium systems of aqueous solutions.

         pH = -log₁₀[H₃O⁺]

         [H₃O⁺] = inverse log₁₀ (-pH) = 10^{-pH} = 10^{-3.5}

          [H₃O⁺] = 3.2 x 10⁻⁴moldm⁻³

       

For the  [OH⁻]:

       we use : pOH = -log₁₀ [OH⁻]

     Recall: pOH + pH = 14

                  pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 3.5 = 10.5

  Now we plug the value of pOH into pOH = -log₁₀ [OH⁻]

                                   [OH⁻] = 10^{-pOH}

                        [OH⁻] = 10^{-10.5} = 3.2 x 10⁻¹¹moldm⁻³

The solution is acidic as the concentration of H₃0⁺ is more than that of the OH⁻ ions.

Describe the progress of the formation of an ionic bond in terms of electrons
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.

A) 30.22 g NaCl x 1 mol NaC l =      58.4430 Molar mass (g) NaCl=0.5171 mol NaCl
jekas [21]
The third question requires you to solve for the weight of sodium (Na) and weight of Chloride (Cl) from the calculated moles of each element Na, and Cl.

So, you need to multiply the calculated moles of Na with its molar mass (23 g/ mol) to get the answer for Na. And multiply the calculated moles of Cl with its molar mass (35.45 g/mol) to get the answer for Cl.
