Why can't polyatomic ions ever stand alone?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Basile [38]2 years ago
7 0
The prefix "poly-" means "many," and "atomic" refers to atoms, so a polyatomic ion is made of 2+ atoms covalently bonded together. These ions are charged, which is why they can never stand alone.

By what factor does [h+ ] change for each ph change? (a) 3.20 units
konstantin123 [22]
When a change in PH = 10^-ΔPH
so the change = 10^-3.2
change depends on two factor 0.00063 (10^-3.2)and factor 1585 (10^3.2)depending on the way which the change goes.if PH change from PH=0 to PH= 3.2 so the change is decreasing from concentration from 1 mol to 0.00063 and if PH change from PH = 3.2 to PH=0 so the change is increasing by a factor of 1585.

Benzene has a specific gravity of 0.88. if it was spilled in a river what would it do?
Gelneren [198K]
As we know,
                    Density of Benzene  =  876 Kg/m³
And,
                    Density of Water       =  997 Kg/m³
So,
     Specific Gravity is calculated as,

                     Specific Gravity  =  Density of Benzene / Density of Water

                     Specific Gravity    =   876 Kg/m³ / 997 Kg/m³

                     Specific Gravity    =  0.878

Every object having specific gravity less than 1 will float on water and if value is greater than 1 then it will sink.

Benzene being non-polar in nature does not mix with water and due to less density it will float on the surface of water.
