The sodium ion becomes hydrated. when sodium chloride dissolves in water, the sodium and chloride ions and the polar water molecules are strongly attracted to one another by ion-dipole interactions
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
Electron affinity is the energy released when an extra electron is added to a neutral gaseous atom. A negative value of electron affinity indicates that energy is given out and vice versa.
Metals have positive electron affinity since electrons rarely accept electrons, so;
Na(g)+ 1e^- → Na^-(g) positive
Mg(g)+1e^- → Mg^-(g) positive
For the last case; Br(g)+ 1e^- → Br^-(g), the electron affinity for the non-metals is negative. hence the answer
Answer:Calorimetry
Explanation: In this case, an instrument called Calorimeter is used to measure the amount of heat being transferred
