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.
Answer:
Se detailed explanation.
Explanation:
Hello,
In this case, since both magnesium and calcium ions are in group IIA, we can review the following similar properties:
- Since both calcium and magnesium are in group IIA they have two valence electrons, it means that the both of them have two electrons at their outer shells.
- They are highly soluble in water when forming ionic bonds with nonmetals such as those belonging to halogens and oxygen's family.
- Calcium has 18 electrons and magnesium 10 which are two less than the total protons (20 and 12 respectively) since the both of them have lost two electrons due their ionized form.
- Their electron configurations are:

It means that the both of them are at the
region since it is the last subshell at which their electrons are.
Best regards.
Answer:moles = no. of molecules / Avogadro's number
= 2.26 x 10^33 / 6.022 x 10^23
= 3752906011
Round to significant figures which is 3 = 3.75 x 10^9 mol
Explanation:
The formula for finding how many moles of a substance when given the amount of molecules is: moles = number of molecules / Avogadro's number
Given:
0.607 mol of the weak acid
0.609 naa
2.00 liters of solution
The solution for finding the ph of a buffer:
[HA] = 0.607 / 2.00 = 0.3035 M
[A-]= 0.609/ 2.00 = 0.3045 M
pKa = 6.25
pH = 6.25 + log 0.3045/ 0.3035 = 6.25 is the ph buffer prepared.
