Metals are more likely to form which type of Ion?
- Anion
- Cation
- Polyatomic
- Isotopic
Correct Answer

A. Cation

Explanation

Metals are more likely to form cations because they tend to lose electrons in chemical reactions. Cations are positively charged ions, formed when an atom loses one or more electrons. Since metals have relatively low ionization energies, they can easily lose electrons from their outermost energy level, resulting in a more stable electron configuration. This loss of electrons creates a positively charged cation.

The molecular mass of NaCl is approximately 58 grams. How many molecules of NaCl would be contained in 29 grams?
- 3.01 x 10(23)
- 28
- 6.02 x 10(23)
- 58
Correct Answer

A. 3.01 x 10(23)

Explanation

The molecular mass of NaCl is approximately 58 grams. This means that one mole of NaCl weighs 58 grams. The Avogadro's number states that there are 6.02 x 10^23 molecules in one mole of any substance. To find the number of molecules in 29 grams of NaCl, we can set up a proportion: 58 grams is to 6.02 x 10^23 molecules as 29 grams is to x molecules.
