What is the electron configuration of oxygen (atomic number 8)?
Answer: 1s² 2s² 2p⁴
Oxygen has 8 electrons. The configuration is 1s² 2s² 2p⁴ — 2 in the first shell and 6 in the second shell (2 in 2s and 4 in 2p).
What type of bond is formed between Na and Cl in NaCl?
Answer: Ionic bond
NaCl forms an ionic bond. Sodium (a metal) transfers an electron to chlorine (a non-metal), creating Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions that attract each other electrostatically.
What is Avogadro's number?
Answer: 6.022 × 10²³
Avogadro's number is 6.022 × 10²³, representing the number of particles (atoms, molecules, ions) in one mole of a substance.
Balance the equation: H₂ + O₂ → H₂O
Answer: 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
Balanced: 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O. Left: 4H, 2O. Right: 4H, 2O. Both sides are equal, satisfying conservation of mass.
What is the pH of a neutral solution at 25°C?
Answer: 7
A neutral solution at 25°C has pH = 7. pH 7 is basic (alkaline). Pure water at 25°C is neutral with pH = 7.
What is the molar mass of water (H₂O)?
Answer: 18 g/mol
Molar mass of H₂O = 2(1) + 16 = 18 g/mol. Hydrogen has a molar mass of 1 g/mol and oxygen has 16 g/mol.
