Explanation:

When an atom gains or lose electrons then the atom tends to attain a negative or positive charge. Thus, the ions become charged.

Whereas when an atom is neutral then the number of electrons equals the number of protons. But when an atom becomes charged then the ions have unequal number of protons and electrons.

For example, atomic number of sodium is 11 and when it loses one electron then it attains a positive charge. The equation is as follows.

              Na \rightarrow Na^{+} + 1e^{-}

Thus, we can conclude that ions must always have an unequal number of protons and electrons.

An aqueous solution contains 0.23 M potassium hypochlorite.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

0.22 mol HClO, 0.11mol HBr.

0.25mol NH₄Cl, 0.12 mol HCl

Explanation:

A buffer is defined as a mixture in solution between weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.

Potassium hypochlorite (KClO) could be seen as conjugate base of HClO (Weak acid). That means the addition of <em>0.22 mol HClO  </em>will convert the solution in a buffer. HBr reacts with KClO producing HClO, thus, <em>0.11mol HBr</em> will, also, convert the solution in a buffer. 0.23 mol HBr will react completely with KClO and in the solution you will have only HClO, no a buffering system.

Ammonia (NH₃) is a weak base and its conjugate base is NH₄⁺. That means the addition of <em>0.25mol NH₄Cl</em> will convert the solution in a buffer. Also, NH₃ reacts with HCl producing NH₄⁺. Thus, addition of<em> 0.12 mol HCl</em>  will produce NH₄⁺. 0.25mol HCl consume all NH₃.

RideAnS [48]
Answer:

Sublimation

Explanation:

Sublimation is when a substance goes from a solid to a gas, without going through a liquid phase. This is not a method for separation and purification.

bond is ionic 
A is in group 2 (you can pick any like Ca)
B is in group 5 (like B)
the other question:
the reason is they are neutral gas and they already have 8 electrons except for He which is 2 and are completely stable so don't want to loose any electron vs Li and Na which have only 1 electron in the outer layer and are willing to loose that one to become stable.
