Ionic compounds are compounds that are formed together by a cation and an anion. A cation is an ion with a positive charge. For example, Na+ and Ca2+. An ion has a negative charge, like Cl- and OH-. There is a greater chance of forming an ionic compound when they have a great difference in electronegativity, the ability to attract electrons toward itself. In the periodic table, elements that are opposite to each other, more likely found in opposite sides, would be more apt to form an ionic compound. Example would be NaCl and CaCl2 or Ca(OH)2.
Complete Question:
Ions to calculate the p-values: Na⁺, Cl⁻, and NH₄⁺
Answer:
pNa = 0.307
pCl = 0.093
pNH₄ = 0.503
Explanation:
The p-value is calculated by the antilog of the concentration of the substance of interest. For example, pH = -log[H⁺]. Thus, first, let's find the ions concentration.
Both substances are salts that solubilize completely, thus, by the solution reactions:
NaCl → Na⁺ + Cl⁻
NH₄Cl → NH₄⁺ + Cl⁻
So, for both reactions the stoichiometry is 1:1:1 and the concentration of the ions is equal to the concentration of the salts.
[Na⁺] = 0.493 M
[Cl⁻] = 0.493 + 0.314 = 0.807 M
[NH₄⁺] = 0.314 M
The p-values are:
pNa = -log[Na⁺] = -log(0.493) = 0.307
pCl = -log[Cl⁻] = -log(0.807) = 0.093
pNH₄ = -log[NH₄⁺] = -log(0.314) = 0.503
The first answer is B and the second answer is B
