Answer:

0.0347 moles of hydronium ions

Explanation:

The equation of the neutralization reaction between hydroxide and hydronium ions is given below:

H₃O+ (aq) + OH- (aq) ----> 2 H₂O (l)

From the equation above, 1 mole of hydroxide ions will neutralize one mole hydronium ions.

The moles of hydroxide ions present in 1 teaspoon or 5 mL of antacid product is calculated as follows:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Molar mass of Magnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH)₂ = 58 g/mol

Molar mass of aluminium hydroxide, Al(OH)₃ = 78 g/mol

Mass of magnesium hydroxide = 450 g = 0.45 g

Mass of aluminium hydroxide = 500 mg = 0.5 g

Moles of magnesium hydroxide = (0.45/58) moles

Moles of aluminium hydroxide = (0.5/78) moles

Equation of the ionization of magnesium hydroxide and aluminium hydroxide is given below:

Mg(OH)₂ (aq) ----> Mg²+ (aq) + 2 OH- (aq)

Al(OH)₃ (aq) ---> Al³+ (aq) + 3 OH- (aq)

Number of moles of hydroxide ions present in (0.45/58) moles of magnesium hydroxide = 2 × (0.45/58) moles = 0.0155 moles

Number of moles of hydroxide ions present in (0.5/78) moles of aluminium hydroxide = 3 × (0.5/78) moles = 0.0192 moles

Total moles of hydroxide ions = 0.0155 + 0.0192 = 0.0347 moles hydroxide ions

Therefore, 0.0347 moles of hydroxide ions will neutralize 0.0347 moles of hydronium ions.

What is the numbers of molecules for 65.8g of CO2?
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

8.98*10^23 molecules CO2

Explanation:

The molar mass of CO2 is 44.0 grams/mol. If we convert 65.8 grams of CO2 into moles, 65.8g CO2 / 44.0g CO2 then we get about 1.49 moles of CO2. We know there are 6.02*10^23 molecules in a mole, so we would just multiply 1.49 mol CO2 * 6.02*10^23 = 8.98*10^23

1. When two atoms with different electronegativities are bonded together, a bond dipole exists. These are displayed with an arro
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

In order: LOWER, HIGHER, NEGATIVE, POSITIVE, INCREASE

Explanation:

First you must consider the definition of electronegativity.

All in all, electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract electrons to itself. For this explanation, let's just consider the groups 1, 2, 13-17, and the noble gases of the periodic table. Furthermore, let's also consider the octet rule. The octet rule says that the last orbit of an atom tends to have 8 electrons in order to be stable.

If you take an atom like Sodium (Na) and search its distribution of electrons by levels, you'll see these number in the last two orbits: 8.1

The penultimate orbit has 8 electrons and the last one has only 1. Therefore, in order to futfill the octet rule what do you think it's easier? Losing the last electron and leaving the 8 electrones of the penultimate orbit as last orbit? Or maybe taking 7 electrons for the last orbit and, hence, futfilling the octet? Well, the answer is the first case.

The more you move from group to group (i.e, rightwards in the periodic table), more electrons will have in their last orbit.

So, in order to respond your question: Yes you should display it like this:

A --> B

Consider A and B two random atoms, for which B's electronegativity is higher than A's. This arrow shows the tendency of the electron flow.

As electrons go to the more electronegative atom, the whole electronic ''cloud'' will tend to be closer to B, because this atom is more electronegative. Hence, there will be a partial (not fixed) negative charge on B rather than on A. This is due to B's high electronegativity. This means that the negative charge will spend more time on B rather than on A, this is what partial negative charge means.

The higher the electronegativity is, the higher the magnitudes of the partial charges --> Therefore, these partial charges are increased and sometimes it might lead to the chemical bond breakage.

What is the charge of copper ions in water solutions?
zalisa [80]

Answer:

Cu^{+}\\\\Cu^{2+}

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, since copper has two oxidation states, +1 and +2 in which it indicates the loss of one and two electrons at it outer shell respectively, we can infer that the possible ions of copper in water or aqueous solutions are:

Cu^{+}\\\\Cu^{2+}

Which are known as copper (I) or cuprous and copper (II) or cupric positive ions (cations).

Best regards.
