Transition metals
Most transition metals differ from the metals of Groups 1, 2, and 13 in that they are capable of forming more than one cation with different ionic charges. As an example, iron commonly forms two different ions
Answer:
pH = 11.3
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Concentration of hydronium ion [H₃O⁺] = 4.950×10¯¹² M
pH =.?
The pH of a solution is defined by the following equation:
pH = –Log [H₃O⁺]
Thus, with the above formula, we can obtain the pH of the solution as follow:
Concentration of hydronium ion [H₃O⁺] = 4.950×10¯¹² M
pH =.?
pH = –Log [H₃O⁺]
pH = –Log 4.950×10¯¹²
pH = 11.3
Explanation:
- When a bond is formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to another then it results in the formation of an ionic bond.
An ionic bond is generally formed by a metal and a non-metal.
For example, lithium is an alkali metal with atomic number 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1.
And, chlorine is a non-metal with atomic number 17 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 7.
So, in order to complete their octet lithium needs to lose an electron and chlorine needs to gain an electron.
Hence, both of then on chemically combining together results in the formation of an ionic compound that is, lithium chloride (LiCl).
An ionic compound is formed by LiCl because lithium has donated its valence electron to the chlorine atom.
- On the other hand, if a bond is formed by sharing of electrons between the two chemically combining atoms then it is known as a covalent bond.
For example, 
is a covalent compound as electrons are being shared by each oxygen atom.
Answer: OH−.
Explanation: Hydroxide, any chemical compound containing one or more groups, each comprising one atom each of oxygen and hydrogen bonded together and functioning as the negatively charged ion OH-.
Characteristic properties can be used to describe and identify the substances, while non-characteristic properties, although can be used to describe the substances, cannot be used to identify them.
Temperature, mass, color, shape and volume are examples of non-characteristic properties.
Density, boiling point, melting point, chemical reactivity are examples of characteristic properties.
