Answer:
2-
Explanation:
For an element to be stable, it must follow the octet rule: an atom will gain, lose or share electrons until its valence shell is complete with 8 electrons.
An element with the valence electron configuration ns²np⁴ has 6 (2+4) electrons in its valence shell. Thus, in order to fulfill the octet, it will gain 2 electrons. As a consequence, it will form an anion with charge 2-.
Answer: D. It is the currently accepted atomic model.
Explanation:
It is the mordern atomic model, also known as the Electron Cloud Model. Indicating that the nucleus of an atom is surrounded by a cloud of electrons.
Answer:
gaseous CO2 bubbles out of the solution
Explanation:
We already know that the dissolution of a gas in water is exothermic. Hence, when the temperature of a solution containing a gas is increased, the solubility of the gas decreases and the gas bubbles out of the solution.
Similarly, the dissolution of KNO3 in water is endothermic. This implies that the solubility of the solid increases with increasing temperature.
Thus the solid becomes more soluble at 75°.
Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
For this question, we have to remember the effect of an atom with high <u>electronegativity</u> as "Br". If the "Br" atom is closer to the carboxylic acid group (COOH) we will have an <u>inductive effect</u>. Due to the electronegativity of Br, the electrons of the C-H bond would be to the Br, then this bond would be <u>weaker</u> and the compound will be more acid (because is easier to produce the hydronium ion
).
With this in mind, for A in the last compound, we have <u>2 Br atoms</u> near to the acid carboxylic group, so, we will have a high inductive effect, then the C-H would be weaker and we will have <u>more acidity</u>. Then we will have the compound with only 1 Br atom and finally, the last compound would be the one without Br atoms.
In B, the difference between the molecules is the <u>position</u> of the "Br" atom in the molecule. If the Br atom is closer to the acid group we will have a <u>higher inductive effect</u> and more <u>acidity</u>.
