Answer:
ion-dipole
Explanation:
Let us remember that the potassium cation is an ion, a positive ion to be precise.
There is a dipole existing in the hydrogen cyanide molecule. The positive end of the dipole is on hydrogen while the negative end of the dipole is on the cyanide moiety.
The only possible interaction between the potassium cation and the hydrogen cyanide is an ion dipole interaction. The cation interacts with the cyanide moiety having a partial negative charge in the molecule.
Answer:
less HCL acid is required to neutralize a weaker solution of base (sodium bicarbonate).
Explanation:
Answer:
(b) lose electrons and form positive ions
Explanation:
<u>Ionic bonding:-
</u>
This type of bonding is formed when there is a complete transfer of electrons from one element to another element. In this bonding one element is always a metal and another is a non-metal.
<u>For example, the formation of NaCl</u>
The electronic configuration of sodium with Z = 11 is : 2, 8, 1
The electronic configuration of chlorine with Z = 17 is : 2, 8, 7
<u>Thus, sodium loses one electron and become positively charged and chlorine accepts this electron and become negatively charged and they have both their octets complete and form ionic bond.</u>
Hence, can be seen from the above example, metallic atoms generally lose electrons and form positive ions.
