- measured by molarity (M), which is the number of moles per liter of solution (moles/L). For example, 1M = 1 mole/L. To determine how many grams of a substance is equal to one mole the molecular mass is needed (we will not explore this in this lab rather this is taught in your Chemistry subjects). The general formula for making a dilution solution is the following: CıV1 = C2V2 where C: = the original concentration of stock solution Vi = the volume of stock solution needed to make working solution C2 = the desired concentration of working solution V: = the desired final volume of working solution For Educational Purposes Only SLSU-TO/NCMatondo 18 What would be the working stock concentration (in molarity) if you diluted 250 ul of a stock concentration of 10 µM in a total volume of 1 mL?

- The “octet rule” in chemistry helps predict the types of bonds thatatoms will form. In general, an atom will be most stable if it fills itsouter shell of 8 electrons. Atoms with fewer than 4 valence electronstend to donate electrons and those with more than 4 valence electronstend to accept additional electrons; those with exactly 4 can do both.Using this rule, determine what category each of the followingelements falls into: N, S, C, P, O, H, Ca, Fe, and Mg. (You will needto work out the valence of the atoms.)arrow_forwardLook up the valence electron configuration, covalent atomic radius, effective nuclear charge, first ionization energy and Pauling electronegativity in Chapter 8 (tables are attached). Examine the above data and answer the following questions. a) Explain why some of the elements like TI and Pb on the lower left of the p block are metallic. b) Explain why some of the elements like C, Si in the center of the p block form covalent bonds. Explain why these bonds formed by the network of these elements (as studied in Chapter 25) tend to be unreactive. c) Explain why the noble Group 8A elements are highly unreactive gases. d) Explain why some elements like F, CI, Br etc, on the upper right of the p block are highly reactive nonmetals.arrow_forwardConsider these compounds: A.
