Answer:Some atoms become more stable by gaining or losing an entire electron (or several electrons). When they do so, atoms form ions, or charged particles. Electron gain or loss can give an atom a filled outermost electron shell and make it energetically more stable.

What is the percentage of water in hydrated calcium chloride​
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

24.5%

Explanation:

You just add up the atomic masses.  

Ca - 40.078  

Cl2 - 35.4527 x 2 = 70.9054  

------ 110.9834  

H4 - 1.00794 x 4 = 4.03176  

O2 - 31.9998  

------ 36.03056  

TOTAL - 147.01396  

So the water is 36.03056/147.01396 = .245082576 but that is only accurate to three decimals (because the mass of Ca was only given to three decimals) so we write .245 and that is 24.5%

This is not my answer but I found it on Yahoo answers and it was answered by Anonymous.

Allushta [10]
Low pH = high acidity.
HF has a very low pH, so when added to a solution, it will lower the pH of the solution and therefore make it more acidic. So the answer should be B.
