B because it can stabilize
The answer is (2) KNO3. This depends on the solubility of these four compounds at 10℃. For NaCl, it is 35.8 g, For NaNO3, 80.8 g. KCl, 31.2 g. KNO3, 21.9g. So only KNO3 is less than 25.0 g.
<span> Au</span>₂(SeO₄)₃
O = -2 × 4 = -8
Se = + 6
So,
(+6 - 8) = -2
Means (SeO₄) contains -2 charge, Now multiply -2 by 3
-2 ₓ 3 = -6
Means,
Au₂ + (-6) = 0
Au₂ = +6
Or,
Au = 6 / 2
Au = +3
Result:
Au = +3
Se = +6
O = -2
Ni(CN)₂
Cyanide (CN⁻) contains -1 charge,
So,
N = -3
C = +2
Then,
Ni + (-1)₂ = 0
Ni - 2 = 0
Or,
Ni = +2
Result:
N = -3
C = +2
Ni = +2
The various atomic masses of the same element are called<u> isotopes</u>. They have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons.
