Because the alkali metals are the group 1 metals, they have only 1 valence electron that they want to lose, and the halogens are the group 17 nonmetals, they want to gain 1 valence electron to become stable.
Answer:
76.1 amu
Explanation:
Let us recall that isomers refer to two different compounds with the same molecular formula but different atom to atom connectivity and different chemical properties. When two compounds are isomers, we can essentially represent them with exactly the same molecular formula.
Now propane-1,2-diol and propane-1,3-diol are both represented by the molecular formula C3H8O2 since they are isomers of each other. When two compounds have the same molecular formula, they must essentially have the same molecular mass. Hence the molecular mass of propane-1,3-diol is also 76.1 amu.
Answer:
Solution is 0.28 M
You can also say, [NaCl] = 0.28 mol/L
Explanation:
As you have a solute mass and the solution's volume, you may find the molarity concentration of solution.
Molarity specifies the moles of solute in 1 L of solution
We convert the volume of solution to L → 350 mL . 1L / 1000 mL = 0.350L
We convert the mass of solute to moles → 5.80 g . 1mol / 58.45 g = 0.0992 moles
Molarity (mol/L) = 0.0992 mol /0.350L = 0.28M
Answer:
C. Covalent Bond
Explanation:
A covalent bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs, and the stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms, when they share electrons, is known as covalent bonding.
Answer:
1) SO₄
²⁻ : (+6)
H₂S : (-2)
Explanation:
a) <u>Sulfate reducers</u> are widespread in muds and other sediments, water-logged soils, etc., environments that contain SO₄ ²⁻ and become anoxic as a result of microbial decomposition.
Sulfate (SO₄ ²⁻), the most oxidized form of sulfur (+6), <u>is reduced</u> by these
sulfate-reducing bacteria. The end product of sulfate reduction is hydrogen sulfide, H₂S, (oxidation number -2) an important natural product that participates in many biogeochemical processes. The H₂S they generate is responsible for the pungent smell (like that of rotten eggs) often encountered near coastal ecosystems. When sulfate-reducing bacteria grow, the H₂S formed from SO₄ ²⁻ reduction combines with the ferrous iron to form black, insoluble ferrous sulfide, which is not toxic. This is important for the conservation of the environment.
b) The net ionic equation under acidic conditions is:
4 H₂ + SO₄²⁻ + H⁺ → HS⁻ + 4 H₂O
Global reaction: SO₄²⁻ + 2H⁺ → H₂S + O₂
