Answer: True.
Explanation.
The group 7A is actually named group 17.
That group is the halogens: F, Cl, Br, I, At, and Ts (Ts is one of the last elements discovered).
Those elements have 7 valence electrons (notice that it is the same number as the second digit in 17).
The atoms with 7 valence electrons will "easily" gain one electron to get the configuration of the next noble gas (8 valence electrons). That is why these elements gain electrons to form ions.
When atoms gain electrons form anions (negative ions). For example: F(-), Cl(-), Br(-), I(-).
When Ka =1.37 x 10^-4
∴Pka = - ㏒Ka
= -㏒ 1.37 x 10^-4
= 3.86
According to H- H equation:
when PH = PKA + ㏒[conjugate base / weak acid]
when the lactate is the conjugate base and lactic acid is the weak acid
∴ PH = Pka +㏒[lactate] / [lactic acid]
so, by substitution:
4.49 = 3.86 + ㏒[lactate]/[lactic acid]
∴[lactate]/[lactic acid] = 4.3
∴ [lactic acid] / [lactate] = 1/4.3
= 0.23
The answer is D.
The atomic number stands for the number of protons in each element. The number of protons is what is unique to each element. The number of neutrons varies; this is what isotopes are. The number of protons being the atomic number explains why the atomic number is an identifying characteristic of each element.
