A
+1
2
Q
Group IIA (2 alkaline earth metals) charge
A
+2
3
Q
Nonmetals are usually (in terms of charge)…
A
anions
4
Q
Group VIIA (17 halogens) charge
A
-1
5
Q
electrolytes
A
- solutes that enable solutions to carry currents
- lattice arrangement disrupted by ion-dipole interactions between the ionic components and the water molecules
- cations and anions are now free to move and conduction is possible
- higher concentration higher conductivity
6
Q
strong electrolytes…
A
dissolve completely into its constituent ions, high solvation
7
Q
high polarity is indicative of…
A
strong electrolytes
8
Q
nonelectrolytes
A
do not ionize at all in water
include many nonpolar gases and organic compounds
9
Q
percent yield
A
% yield = actual yield/theoretical yield x 100%
