Why do atoms become anion and cations (remember the octet rule and how 8 is a very important number)?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Kryger [21]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

The atoms become cations because they have lost electrons and the atoms and has a positive charge then atoms become a ions because they have gained electrons from cations and has a negative charge

0.0278, how many significant figures
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

There are three significant figures

Explanation:

When counting sig figs you don't count the zeros unless it is between a number greater than zero. The two zeros aren't between the greater numbers so there are only 3.

How do alpha particles compare to gamma rays?
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Unlike alpha and beta particles, which have both energy and mass, gamma rays are pure energy. Gamma rays are similar to visible light, but have much higher energy. Gamma rays are often emitted along with alpha or beta particles during radioactive decay.

You use 4.98 g of Na2SO4, how many grams of barium sulfate are produced?<br><br> Na2+Ba(NO3)2= ?
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

Mass of barium sulfate = 8.17 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium sulfate = 4.98 g

Mass of barium sulfate produced = ?

Solution:

Na₂SO₄ + Ba(NO₃)₂    →   BaSO₄ + 2NaNO₃

Moles of sodium sulfate:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles =4.98 g / 142.04 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.035 mol

Now we will compare the moles pf sodium sulfate and with barium sulfate.

                            Na₂SO₄               :            BaSO₄

                                1                       :              1

                              0.035                :          0.035

Mass of barium sulfate:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =   0.035 mol ×233.4 g/mol

Mass = 8.17 g

What is the concentration of a 1:10 dilution of a 2.5 M solution of NaCl? How would you prepare exactly 100 ml of such a solutio
Marina CMI [18]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of the solution is 0.25 M

<u>Explanation:</u>

Let the volume of solution of 2.5 M NaCl be 10 mL

We are given:

Dilution ratio = 1 : 10

So, the solution prepared will have a volume of = \frac{10}{1}\times 1000=100mL

To calculate the molarity of the diluted solution, we use the equation:

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

where,

M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the molarity and volume of the concentrated NaCl solution

M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the molarity and volume of diluted NaCl solution

We are given:

M_1=2.5M\\V_1=10mL\\M_2=?M\\V_2=100mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

2.5\times 10=M_2\times 100\\\\M_2=\frac{2.5\times 10}{100}=0.25M

Hence, the concentration of the solution is 0.25 M
