An ionic compound is composed of ionic bonds that are formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to the other. The atom that loses electrons acquires a positive charge (cation) while that which gains electrons acquires a negative charge.
In the case of sodium chloride; Sodium Na has 1 electron in its outer orbital while Chlorine Cl has 7 electrons. Thus, Cl requires 1 electron to complete its octet. This electron is donated by Na.
Thus, NaCl is essentially, Na⁺Cl⁻
Ans D) Chlorine becomes an anion by gaining an electron from sodium
Answer:
B. A precipitate will form since Q > Ksp for calcium oxalate
Explanation:
Ksp of CaC₂O₄ is:
CaC₂O₄(s) ⇄ Ca²⁺ + C₂O₄²⁻
Where Ksp is defined as the product of concentrations of Ca²⁺ and C₂O₄²⁻ in equilibrium:
Ksp = [Ca²⁺][C₂O₄²⁻] = 2.27x10⁻⁹
In the solution, the concentration of calcium ion is 3.5x10⁻⁴M and concentration of oxalate ion is 2.33x10⁻⁴M.
Replacing in Ksp formula:
[3.5x10⁻⁴M][2.33x10⁻⁴M] = 8.155x10⁻⁸. This value is reaction quotient, Q.
If Q is higher than Ksp, the ions will produce the precipitate CaC₂O₄ until [Ca²⁺][C₂O₄²⁻] = Ksp.
Thus, right answer is:
<em>B. A precipitate will form since Q > Ksp for calcium oxalate</em>
