Why are anions larger than neutral atoms of the same element?​

Chemistry

5 0

Answer:

In general, anions are larger than the corresponding neutral atom, since adding electrons increases the number of electron-electron repulsion interactions that take place.

What is formed when hydrobromic acid, hbr, and calcium hydroxide, ca(oh)2, are combined?
Lorico [155]

This is an acid – base reaction and this always result a salt and water in a neutralization reaction. <span>

The salt that is formed will be calcium bromide (calcium is located in group 2 so calcium bromide has a formula of CaBr2) 

so essentially we got:

HBr + Ca(OH)2 ------> CaBr2 + H2O </span>

balancing the elements: <span>

<span>2HBr(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) --------> CaBr2(aq) + 2H2O(l)</span></span>

A car travels at a speed of 80 km/h. Which of the following is correct to convert the speed of the car to hm/s? [1 km = 10 hm, 1
amm1812

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option D.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given that car travels with a speed of 80 km/hr and we need to convert it into hm/s.

For that we use the conversions:

1 kilometer = 10 hectometer

And, 1 hour = 3600 seconds

To convert the quantity into hm/s, we multiply the numerator which is 80 by 10 to convert the whole quantity into hm/hr and now, to convert the result into hm/s finally, we divide the result by 3600.

\Rightarrow (\frac{80km1}{hr})(\frac{10hm}{1km})=\frac{80km}{hr}\\\\\Rightarrow (\frac{80km}{hr})(\frac{1hr}{3600s})=\frac{80hm}{3600s}

Hence, the correct answer is option D.

In this reaction, what is the correct coefficient for hydrogen gas? ? h2 + ? o2 ? ? h2o
iragen [17]
To balance a chemical reaction, it is important to remember that the number of atoms of each element in the reactants and the product side should be equal. This is to follows the law of conservation of mass where mass cannot be created or destroyed. So, the total mass that is used to react should have the same value of the total mass of the substances produced from the reactants. The balanced chemical reaction would be written as follows:

<span> 2h2 + o2 = 2h2o

Reactant     =    Product
H = 4           =          4 
O = 2          =           2

Therefore, the correct coefficient for the hydrogen gas would be 2.</span>

explain why benzoic acid is insolube in water at room temperature but is soluble in 2.5M NaOH solution
Alik [6]

Answer:

It is known generally that polar compounds are soluble in polar solvents. Based on the structure of benzoic acid, it comprises the non-polar C6H6 group and polar COOH group. Based on the structure, in benzoic acid, the nonpolar hydrocarbon outweighs and influences the polar part as nonpolar, due to which benzoic acid is not soluble in water.

On the other hand, benzoic acid produces sodium salt benzoic acid when it reacts with 2.5 M sodium hydroxide, this salt is ionic. Generally, the ionic compounds are soluble in water. Therefore, the salt of benzoic acid gets dissolved in water. Hence, benzoic acid is soluble in the solution of sodium hydroxide.
