...a metal atom will *lose* electrons to form a *positive* cation and a nonmetal atom will *accept* electrons to form an *negative* anion.
Answer:
B. Molarity will decrease
Explanation:
Molarity is one of the measures of the molar concentration of a solution. It is calculated by dividing the number of moles of the solute by the volume of the solvent. This means that the higher the amount of solute in relation to the volume of solvent, the higher the molarity of that solution.
In essence, adding water to a solution dilutes it i.e it increases the solvent's volume in relation to the solute, causing the molarity to decrease. In a nutshell, diluting a solution (by adding water or more solvent) causes the molarity of such solution to decrease. For example, if water is added to a 0.70 molar solution of CuSO4, the molarity of the solution will DECREASE.

#1
KMnO_4
- Transition metal is Manganese (Mn)
#2
Actually it's the oxidation number of Mn
Let's find how?
- x is the oxidation number
#3
- Purple as per the color of potassium permanganate

Answer: There are 
formula units
Explanation:
According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number 
of particles.
To calculate the moles, we use the equation:
1 mole of 
contains = formula units
Thus 0.38 moles of contains = 
formula units
Thus there are formula units
Answer:
Ion-dipole forces
Explanation:
Na⁺ is a cation, that is, an ion with a positive charge.
NH₃ has polar covalent bonds (due to the difference in electronegativity between nitrogen and hydrogen). According to the VESPR theory, it has a trigonal pyramidal shape with a lone pair. As a consequence, it has a net dipole moment and the molecule is polar.
The intermolecular forces between Na⁺ (ion) and NH₃ (dipole) are ion-dipole forces.
