Why are group IA elements called alkali metals??

Abeaker with 2.00×102 ml of an acetic acid buffer with a ph of 5.000 is sitting on a benchtop. the total molarity of acid and conjugate base in this buffer is 0.100 m. a student adds 4.70 ml of a 0.360 m hcl solution to the beaker. how much will the ph change? the pka of acetic acid is 4.740.

Astable electron arrangement for an atom is one that does not easily change. how is this arrangement arrived at? a. valence electrons are transferred or shared to create a full outer shell of electrons. b. valence electrons are discarded into space to create a full outer shell of electrons. c. protons (positive charge) pair with valence electrons (negative charge) to create a strong bond. d. outer shells with valence electrons are transferred or shared.
