Silver acetate breaks into ions. How many ions would one single formula unit make if dissolved in water? a. 1b. 2c. 3 d. 4 e. none of these

The correct answer is b) 2

Explanation:

When is dissolved in water, silver acetate (AgCH₃COO) is dissociated into ions according to the following equilibrium:

AgCH₃COO ⇄ Ag⁺ + CH₃COO⁻

Where Ag⁺ is a silver cation and CH₃COO⁻ is the acetate anion (an organic anion). As we can see, from one single formula unit are obtained 2 ions (1 cation and 1 anion).

Therefore, the correct option is b) - 2

in chemistry, adhesion and cohesion are attractive forces that exist between molecules. they hold the molecules together from each other. they are different in that adhesive force exists between molecules of different substance while cohesive force happens between molecules of same substance.

adhesion between water and glass causes water molecules at the edge of water and glass interface to climb up the wall in a narrow glass tube. this is called capillary action. cohesion is what gives glass its shape and causes water to form a droplet.

it should have an internal chamber and two thermometers sticking out of the top. the internal chamber will also be closed off from the outside.
