C should be the answer to the following formula
Answer:
C
Explanation:
looking at a periodic table X is fluorine and Y is potassium
Fluorine is in group 7 and forms a 1- charge (which gains electrons) and potassium is in group 1 and forms a 1+ charge (which loses electrons)
Fluorine (X) has an electronic structure of 2,7 and needs to gain an electron from Potassium (Y) to have a full outer shell and potassium has an electronic structure of 2,8,8,1 so needs to lose an electron to have a full outer shell as well. This means that the electron that potassium (Y) has lost is given away to fluorine (X), so both elements become stable.
This is known as ionic bonding where metals (like potassium) lose electrons and non-metals (like fluorine) gain electrons to become more stable, forming ions
Any further clarification let me know
Answer:
[NaCH₃COO] = 2.26M
Explanation:
17% by mass is a sort of concentration. Gives the information about grams of solute in 100 g of solution. (In this case, 17 g of NaCH₃COO)
Let's determine the volume of solution, by density
Mass of solution / Volume of solution = Solution density
100 g / Volume of solution = 1.09 g/mL
100 g / 1.09 g/mL = 91.7 mL
17 grams of solute is contained in 91.7 mL
Molarity (M) = Mol of solute /L of solution
91.7 mL / 1000 = 0.0917L
17 g / 82 g/m = 0.207 moles
Molariy = 0.207 moles / 0.0917L → 2.26M
