Chemistry Questions

An ionic bond is formed in between the two atoms with the transfer of electrons from an atom to the other to become stable after pairing.

The atom which has low ionization energy will give some of its electrons to get stable electronic configuration .

When two or more chemical species combine to form a single product, the reaction is said to be synthesis reaction. It is also called as Direct Combination reaction.

Here in the given options, Sodium (Na) combines with Chlorine (Cl) to form a more complex single product Sodium Chloride (NaCl).

Sodium hydroxide, also known as lye and caustic soda, is an inorganic compound with the formula NaOH. It is a white solid ionic compound consisting of sodium cations Na+ and hydroxide anions OH−.

Properties:

1. It is highly soluble in water, and readily absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide from the air.

2. NaOH is insoluble in ether and other non-polar solvents.

3. It is an odorless compound.

Uses:

Sodium hydroxide is used in many industries: in the manufacture of pulp and paper, textiles, drinking water, soaps and detergents, and as a drain cleaner.

The unit which is used to measure weighted average atomic mass is Atomic Mass Unit (amu).

The amu or gram/mole can also be used for this measure.

Any properties that are dependent on the amount of matter are called as extensive properties of matter.

Examples are :: Mass, Volume, Density (M/V),...
