Answer:
In a neutral molecule, the sum of the bonding valance electrons must be equal. So the products of the negative element and its charges and the positive element and its charge must be equal.
Explanation:
C1×N1 = C2×N2
If we have a 3 valance electrons , the 'A' charge will be either +3 or -5 for a full octet and valance electron in 'B' atoms will mostly result in acquisition of additional electrons (2) for an octet and relative charge of -2.
Balancing the two,
3 × A = -2 × B
To be equal, A = 2 and B = 3
Therefore, A²B³
Answer:
Aluminium was named after alum, which is called 'alumen' in Latin. This name was given by Humphry Davy, an English chemist, who, in 1808, discovered that aluminium could be produced by electrolytic reduction from alumina (aluminium oxide), but did not manage to prove the theory in practice.
Explanation:
1 mole K ------------- 6.02x10²³ atoms
1.83 moles K ------ ?? atoms
1.83 x (6.02x10²³) / 1 =
1.101x10²⁴ atoms of K
hope this helps!
Answer:
The answer is given below.
Explanation:
We will consider the acid as HA and will set up an ICE table with the equilibrium dissociation of α.
AT pH 2.4 the initial H+ concentration will be 3.98^10-3 M
HA → H+ + A-
Initial concentration: 0.1 → 3.98 ^10-3 + 0
equilibrium concentration: 0.1(1-α) → 3.98 * 10-3 + 0.1α 0.1α
pKa of chloroacetic acid is 2.9
-log(Ka) = 2.9
Ka = 1.26 * 10-3
From the equation, Ka = [H+] * [A-] / [HA]
1.26 * 10-3 = (3.98 * 10-3 + 0.1α )* 0.1α / 0.1(1-α)
Since α<<1, we assume 1-α = 1
Solving the equation, we have: α = 0.094
Since this is the fraction of acid that has dissociated, we can say that % of base form = 100 * α= 9.4%
