Will an atom gain or lose an electron? CER

Chemistry
1 answer:
nikdorinn [45]3 years ago

Ions are formed when atoms lose or gain electrons in order to fulfill the octet rule and have full outer valence electron shells. When they lose electrons, they become positively charged and are named cations. When they gain electrons, they are negatively charged and are named anions.

What happens when a gas reaches a cold surface and it changes into a liquid
Mademuasel [1]
To change phases, a substance either gains or looses energy. If a substance gains energy, it will become more exited and the molecules will spread out. An example of this is water boiling into gas. If it looses energy, the molecules will become less exited and come closer together. For example, freezing water takes away energy from molecules, changing it from liquid to solid

When a gas reaches a gold surface, it looses much of the energy that it had, so the gas condenses from gas  to liquid phase.

I think you were doing it right. Just find something in your kitchen and google the chemical formula. And from that you can see the elements in it. For example:

Salt, NaCl, Sodium and Chlorine.

Baking Soda, NaHCO3, Sodium, Hydrogen, Carbon and Oxygen.

Vinegar, CH3COOH, Carbon, Hydrogen and Oxygen

What is the molar solubility of magnesium carbonate ( MgCO3 ) in water? The solubility-product constant for MgCO3 is 3.5 × 10-8
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

S MgCO3 = 1.8708 E-4 M at 25 °C

Explanation:

  • MgCO3 ↔ Mg2+  +  CO32-

           S                S             S

  • Ksp = 3.5 E-8

⇒ Ksp = 3.5 E-8 = [ Mg2+ ] * [ CO32- ] = S * S

⇒ Ksp = 3.5 E-8 = S²

⇒ S = √3.5 E-8

⇒ S = 1.8708 E-4 M
