Answer:

If the atom has more electrons than protons, it is a negative ion or ANION. If it has more protons than electrons, it is a positive ion.

Explanation:

Positive ions are typically metals or act like metals. Many common materials contain these ions. Mercury is found in thermometers, for instance, and aluminum is a metal that is found in a surprising amount of things.

The answer I'm pretty sure is a because it can't be d because ionic binding the electrons are affected and it can't be c because that's covalent bonding and it can't be b because they don't swap electrons.

If 17. 6 g of hcl are used to produce a 14. 5 l solution, what is the ph of the solution?.

kati45 [8]

This problem is providing us with the mass of hydrochloric acid and the volume of solution and asks for the pH of the resulting solution, which turns out to be 1.477.

<h3>pH calculations</h3>

In chemistry, one can calculate the pH of a solution by firstly obtaining its molarity as the division of the moles of solute by the liters of solution, so in this case for HCl we have:

$M=\frac{17.6g*\frac{1mol}{36.46g} }{14.5L} \\\\M=0.0333 M$

Next, due to the fact that hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, we realize its concentration is nearly the same to the released hydrogen ions to the solution upon ionization. Thereby, the resulting pH is:

$pH=-log(0.0333)\\\\pH=1.477$

Which conserves as much decimals as significant figures in the molarity.

3. Unlike global winds, local winds (select the two answers that are correct)

Viktor [21]

Answer:

Small-scale convection currents arise from uneven heating on a smaller scale. This kind of heating occurs along a coast and in the mountains. Small-scale convection currents cause local winds. Local winds blow over a much smaller area and change direction and speed over a shorter period of time than global winds.

Maybe that will help you answer the question.
