Explain the bonding that occurs between sodium and chlorine. Specifically, what kind of bonding takes

Chemistry

babymother [125]3 years ago

Answer:

Ionic bonds form when atoms transfer electrons between each other, forming ions that are electrically attracted to each other forming a bond between them. Sodium chloride (NaCl) is a typical ionic compound. The picture below shows both a sodium and a chlorine ion.

Explanation:

ionic bond

Because of the propensity of sodium to lose an electron and of chlorine to gain an electron, the elements are well suited to bond with one another. This transfer of electrons results in the formation of the ionic bond holding Na+ and Cl– together.

Answer:

An ionic bond occurs between sodium and chlorine where sodium has one  electron while chlorine has seven electrons. The electron from sodium is lost and transferred to a chlorine atom which results in a sodium ion with a charge of one+ and a chloride ion with a charge of one-. These oppositely charged ions attract each other making a balanced charge to make a compound that is electrically neutral.. Sodium cation (Na+) and chlorine anion (Cl-) are attracted to each another to form sodium chloride (table salt). When dissolved in water, the sodium and chloride ions are strongly attracted to the polar water molecules because of ion-dipole interactions.

Characteristics of matter that cannot be changed are called
olchik [2.2K]
It is called Mass.

Among the physical characteristics of a matter which includes Weight, Mass, Volume, and Density the only characteristic that does not change is the mass. The mass of an object never change from place to place. All the objects have a mass and that is why there is a weight but it changes depends on the gravity. Mass don't.

What is the pH difference of two samples if the concentration of [H+] ions is 1000-fold less in the second sample?
snow_tiger [21]
The correct answer is a. This is because the pH of a solution is defined as -log10(concentration of H+ ions). An inverse logarithmic scale such as this means that a solution with a lower concentration of H+ ions will have a higher pH than one with a higher concentration. Therefore we know that the pH of the second sample will be higher than the first.

Since the logarithmic scale has the base 10, a change by 1 on the scale is a consequence of multiplication/division of the H+ concentration by a factor of 10. As the scale is inverse, this means that a decrease of concentration by factor 1000 is equivalent to increasing the pH by (1000/10) = 3.

Potassium hydroxide is classified as an arrhenius base because koh contains
mixas84 [53]

Answer: hydroxide ions

Explanation:

According to the Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydronium ion or hydrogen ion  and a bases is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydroxide ion .

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

As KOH can give hydroxide ions on dissociation , it is considered as arrhenius base.

KOH\rightarrow K^++OH^-
