When a sodium atom transfers an electron to a chlorine atom, forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-), both ions have complete valence shells, and are energetically more stable. The reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat energy.

7.20g of potassium sulfate reacts with the excess oxygen gas in a single displacement reaction, how many grams of oxygen are con
skad [1K]
The balanced chemical reaction:

K2SO4 + O2 = 2KO2 + SO2

Assuming that the reaction is complete, all of the potassium sulfate is consumed. We relate the substances using the chemical reaction. We calculate as follows:

7.20 g K2SO4 ( 1 mol / 174.26 g) ( 1 mol O2 / 1 mol K2SO4 ) ( 32 g / 1 mol ) = 1.32 g O2 consumed in the reaction.

Which of the following ions is formed when a base is dissolved in a solution?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf OH-}

Explanation:

<u>According to Arrhenius concept of acid and base:</u>

"When a base in a solution, produces/yields OH- (Hydroxide) ions."

So, when a base is dissolved in a solution, it produces OH- ions.

<u>For example:</u>

NaOH ⇄ Na⁺ + OH⁻ (So, it is a base)

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!
