The most suitable answer is C becuase they would gain two elctrons to atain that stable OCTET thus becoming a anion with a charge of -2 and by virtue oxidation states of -2.  There is however an exception with oxygen in two cases. But I still remain that the best answer would be C

Choose the aqueous solution that has the highest boiling point. These are all solutions of nonvolatile solutes and you should as
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

0.100 M AlCl₃

Explanation:

The variation of boiling point by the addition of a nonvolatile solute is called ebullioscopy, and the temperature variation is calculated by:

ΔT = W.i

Where W = nsolute/msolvent, and i is the Van't Hoff factor. Because all the substances have the same molarity, n is equal for all of them.

i = final particles/initial particles

C₆H₁₂O₆ don't dissociate, so final particles = initial particles => i = 1;

AlCl₃ dissociates at Al⁺³ and 3Cl⁻, so has 4 final particles and 1 initial particle, i = 4/1 = 4;

NaCl dissociates at Na⁺ and Cl⁻ so has 2 final particles and 1 initial particle, i = 2/1 = 2;

MgCl₂ dissociates at Mg⁺² and 2Cl⁻, so has 3 final particles and 1 initial particle, i = 3/1 = 3.

So, the solution with AlCl₃ will have the highest ΔT, and because of that the highest boiling point.

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

43.96secs

Explanation:

M1 = molar mass of NH3 = 14 + (3x1) = 14 + 3 = 17g/mol

t1 = time for NH3 to diffuse = 30secs

M2 = molar mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5g/mol

t2 = time for HCl to diffuse =?

From Graham's law of diffusion:

t2/t1 = √(M2/M1)

t2/30 = √(36.5/17)

t2/30 = 1.465

Cross multiply

t2 = 30 x 1.465

t2 = 43.96secs

Therefore it will take 43.96secs for the damp blue litmus paper to change colour for HCl.
