In terms of valence electrons, explain why metals form positive ions.

Chemistry
1 answer:
diamong [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Metal elements form positively charged ions called cations because they are located on the left side of the periodic table These elements all have valence electrons in an s orbital. These electrons are relatively easy for the atom to lose to achieve a stable octet of electrons in its outermost energy shell.

What is the boiling point of a solution of 76 g of water dissolved in 500 mL of acetic acid, CH3COOH?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

127.3° C, (This is not a choice)

Explanation:

This is about the colligative property of boiling point.

ΔT = Kb . m . i

Where:

ΔT = T° boling of solution - T° boiling of pure solvent

Kb = Boiling constant

m = molal (mol/kg)

i = Van't Hoff factor (number of particles dissolved in solution)

Water is not a ionic compound, but we assume that i = 2

H₂O →  H⁺  +  OH⁻

T° boling of solution - 118.1°C =  0.52°C . m . 2

Mass of solvent =  Solvent volume / Solvent density

Mass of solvent = 500 mL / 1.049g/mL → 476.6 g

Mol of water are mass / molar mass

76 g / 18g/m = 4.22 moles

These moles are in 476.6 g

Mol / kg = molal → 4.22 m / 0.4766 kg = 8.85 m

T° boling of solution =  0.52°C . 8.85 m . 2 + 118.1°C =  127.3°C
