Answer:
Metals lose electrons to become cations.
Explanation:
For example, sodium loses an electron to become a sodium cation.
Na· ⟶ Na⁺ + e⁻
A is <em>wrong</em>. Nonmetals gain electrons to become anions.
B is <em>wrong</em>. Metals lose electrons.
D is <em>wrong</em>. Nonmetals gain electrons to become anions.
Answer:
9.96*10^21
Explanation:
Molar mass of K2O=29*2+16
= 74g per mol
number of moles in the sample= 1.224/ 74
=0.1654
Number of particles in 1 mole=6.0221409*10^23
Number of particles= 0.01654*6.0221409*10^23
=9.96*10^21
Molarity = moles of solute/volume of solution in liters.
From this relation, we can figure out the number of moles of solute by multiplying the molarity of the solution by the volume in liters.
We have 53.1 mL, or 0.0531 L, of a 12.5 M, or 12.5 mol/L, solution. Multiplying 12.5 mol/L by 0.0531 L, we obtain 0.664 moles. So, in this volume of solution, there are 0.664 moles of solute (HCl).
