Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Poly means many and polyatomic ions means an ion(s) with two or more different atoms.
Out of the given options, phosphate ion is the polyatomic ion which has an ionic charge of 3-.
The formula depicting a phosphate ion is .
Whereas Nitrate, Sulfate, Hydroxide
, Bicarbonate does not carry or have a 3- ionic charge.
Answer:
Therefore, when an atom becomes a positive ion is pulls its electrons closer, decreasing is radius moreover, when it becomes a negative ion, it pulls its electrons closer and decreases the radius.
Pool smell is due, not to chlorine, but to chloramines, chemical compounds that build up in pool water when it is improperly treated. Chloramines result from the combination of two ingredients: (a) chlorine disinfectants and (b) perspiration, oils and urine that enter pools on the bodies of swimmers.
Answer:
Explanation:
Electron gain enthalpy is defined as energy released on addition of electron to an isolated gaseous atom.
The amount of energy released will be maximum when the tendency to attract electrons is maximum. As flourine has atomic number of 9 and has electronic configuration of 2,7. It can readily gain 1 electron to attain stable noble gas configuration and hence liberates maximum energy.
Just like how heat moves from a region of higher
temperature to a region of lower temperature, molecules also tend to move from
a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. This is
called natural diffusion and is naturally happening to reach stability.
