(a)
Interpretation:
The given statement needs to be stated true or false:
The melting points of ionic compounds are high.
Concept introduction:
Ionic compounds are formed by the electrostatic force of attraction between positive and negative charged ions. The ionic compounds are composed of ions, but the overall charge is zero. The ions are combined in such a way that a positive charge is equal to the negative charge.
(b)
Interpretation:
The given statement needs to be stated true or false:
At room temperature, ionic compounds can be solid, liquid or gas.
Concept introduction:
Ionic compounds are formed by the electrostatic force of attraction between positive and negative charged ions. The ionic compounds are composed of ions, but the overall charge is zero. The ions are combined in such a way that a positive charge is equal to the negative charge.
(c)
Interpretation:
The given statement needs to be stated true or false:
Mostly, ionic compounds are not soluble in water.
Concept introduction:
Ionic compounds are formed by the electrostatic force of attraction between positive and negative charged ions. The ionic compounds are composed of ions, but the overall charge is zero. The ions are combined in such a way that a positive charge is equal to the negative charge.
(d)
Interpretation:
The given statement needs to be stated true or false:
There are discrete pairs of sodium and chloride ions in sodium chloride ionic solid.
Concept introduction:
Ionic compounds are formed by the electrostatic force of attraction between positive and negative charged ions. The ionic compounds are composed of ions, but the overall charge is zero. The ions are combined in such a way that a positive charge is equal to the negative charge.

- Hi can you please help me solve this problem? thank youarrow_forwardAn electrode process takes place at a metal-solution interface. Indicate the current condition that must be met for Faradaic rectification to occur.arrow_forwardAt a metal-solution interface, an electron is exchanged, and the symmetry factor beta < 0.5 is found in the Butler-Volmer equation. What does this indicate?arrow_forward
- Please do these questions within the SCH4U course please with full steps since I am still unsure how to format my answers! Thank you so much.arrow_forwardWhen two solutions, one of 0.1 M KCl (I) and the other of 0.1 M MCl (II), are brought into contact by a membrane. The cation M cannot cross the membrane. At equilibrium, x moles of K+ will have passed from solution (I) to (II). To maintain the neutrality of the two solutions, x moles of Cl- will also have to pass from I to II. Explain this equality: (0.1 - x)/x = (0.1 + x)/(0.1 - x)arrow_forwardCalculate the variation in the potential of the Pt/MnO4-, Mn2+ pair with pH, indicating the value of the standard potential.
