An atom consists of a central nucleus with positively charged protons and neutral neutrons. Negatively charged electrons revolve around the nucleus along electronic shells. A metal atom has the tendency to lose electrons from the outermost electronic shell to form a positive ion known as cation. In a cation, the number of electrons is less than the protons in the nucleus. As a result, electrons are attracted towards the nucleus by a strong force of attraction. This makes metal ions smaller than their corresponding neutral atoms.
(Ans) (b) smaller than
A nonmetal atom usually gains electrons to form a negative ion or anion. In an anion the number of electrons is more. As a result, electrons start to repel with each other and the electrons spread out. This increases the size of anions. For this reason, nonmetal ions are typically larger than their corresponding neutral atoms.
(Ans) (a) larger than
Although the models are not provided, I was able to find them and the beakers with solid present in them are:
1C
2A
2C
3A
3C
This is determined by the fact that the beakers all have a piece of closely packed substance laying at the bottom. This closely packed lattice is characteristic of solid substances, and the fact that they exist in the solution in the solid states indicates that they are insoluble.
Answer:
Polyatomic Ionic Compound
Explanation:
In given statement the compound given is called as Sodium oleate this means that when Oleic acid is treated with NaOH then it forms.
In chemistry there are few species which are involved in the formation of compounds.
(i) Atoms:
It is very common that atoms of different elements combine to form compound through covalent bond. For example, H₂, O₂, N₂, F₂ e.t.c.
(i) Ions:
Other than covalent compounds we have ionic compounds. Ionic compounds are made up of ions. These ions forming the ionic compounds can be monatomic like Na⁺, Br⁻, Mg²⁺, Al³⁺, N⁻³ or they can be polyatomic like CO₃²⁻, SO₄²⁻, NH₄⁺, PO₄³⁻ e.t.c.
(iii) Polyatomic Ions:
In polyatomic ions we find a charge on a molecule which contains two or more atoms bonded covalently. Hence, in given compound we have a long chain of molecule containing a negative charge neutralized by opposite +ve charged sodium ion. Hence, Sodium oleate is a polyatomic ionic compound.
Answer:
pH = 4
Solution is acidic
Explanation:
Given data;
Hydronium ion concentration = 1 × 10⁻⁴ M
pH of solution = ?
Solution:
pH = -log [H₃O⁺]
pH = -log [ 1 × 10⁻⁴ ]
pH = 4
According to pH scale the pH 7 is neutral while the pH less than 7 is acidic and greater than 7 is basic. The given solution has pH 4 it means solution is acidic.
