A salt derived from a weak base and a strong acid will yield an acid salt
If we dissolve salt in water they will reduce the intermolecular forces between water molecule and this will decrease the surface tension.
Surface tension is due to cohesive forces (the forces between molecules of same substance) hence as cohesive forces decreases the surface tension also decreases
Answer: The coefficients are 2, 2 and 1.
Explanation: According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants.
The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.
The balanced chemical equation for the given reaction is:
2H2o➡️2h2+o2
Answer:
2. The metal would lose one electrons and the non metal would gain one electrons
Explanation:
An atom of a certain element reacts with the atoms of other elements in order to fullfill its outermost shell (called valence shell).
We notice the following:
- The elements in Group 1 (which are metals) have only 1 electron in their valence shell
- The elements in Group 17 (which are non-metals) have 1 vacancy (lack of electron) in their valence shell
This means that in order for both an atom of group 1 and an atom of group 17 to fullfill the valence shell, they have to:
- The atom in group 1 has to give away its only electron of the valence shell
- The atom in group 17 has to gain one electron in order to fullfill the shell
Therefore, the correct option is
2. The metal would lose one electrons and the non metal would gain one electrons
