Question Although we use polymers for many things, like creating plastic bags, tires for our cars, and pipes for transporting water, polymers can also be dangerous. What is one negative aspect of synthetic (man-made) polymers?

1) how many electrons are in each energy level of the following elements? a. he b. na c. na d. ne 2) how many valence electrons are percent in the following atoms? a. s b. mg c. be d. cl 3) which of the following elements are stable as atoms? a. he b. o c. cl d. ar if you are able to provide the work as to how you got the answers that would be greatly appreciated. : )

Part b: study of equilibrium on solubility: mg(oh)2(s) ⇌ mg2+(aq) + 2 oh–(aq) cloudy clear (pink) 7. a. b. 8. a. b. 9. 10. 11. 12. when adding concentrated hydrochloric acid, how did the appearance of the equilibrium mixture change? the change in appearance indicated a shift in the point of equilibrium. in which direction did the equilibrium shift? (l) left (r) right explain your answer to question 7a. you should indicate which ion was added to or removed from the equilibrium mixture. when adding edta, how did the appearance of the equilibrium mixture change? the change in appearance indicated a shift in the point of equilibrium. in which direction did the equilibrium shift? (l) left (r) right explain your answer to question 8a. you should indicate which ion was added to or removed from the equilibrium mixture. upon heating in which direction is the equilibrium shifting? upon cooling in which direction is the equilibrium shifting? is the forward reaction a. endothermic explain your answers to questions 9, 10, and 11. (l) left (r) right (l) left (r) right b. exothermic

In a chemical reaction at equilibrium, the rate of the forward reaction the rate of the reverse reaction. if the rate of the forward reaction more products are formed.
