Masteriza [31]3 years ago

Answer:

neon

Explanation:

The octet rule states that atoms of elements are stable when they possess 8 electrons on their outermost shell.

Hence, atoms of elements participate in chemical reactions in order to attain this octet structure (eight electrons in the outermost shell).

Neon is a noble gas and already has eight electrons in its outermost shell. Hence, neon is least likely to obey the octet rule.

What is hydrogen ion concentration of an acid solution whose PH is 3.4?​
meriva
It’s easy, if the PH of any acidic solution = -Log[H+], where [H+] is hydrogen ion concentration, multiply each term by (-1) then raise each term as a power to (10), so it will become like this:-
[H+] = 10^(-PH)

11.0 L of hydrogen and 5.52 L of oxygen are exploded together in a reaction tube. What volume of water vapor was formed, at STP?
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

11.0 L

Explanation:

The equation for this reaction is given as;

2H2  +  O2  -->  2H2O

2 mol of H2 reacts with 1 mol of O2 to form 2 mol of H2O

At STP;

1 mol = 22.4 L

This means;

44.8 L of H2 reacts with 22.4 L of O2 to form 44.8 L of H2O

In this reaction, the limiting reactant is H2 as O2 is in excess.

The relationship between H2 and H2O;

44.8 L = 44.8 L

11.0 L would produce x

Solving for x;

x = 11 * 44.8 / 44.8

x = 11.0 L
