Answer:
there must be free-moving electrons in a compound to conduct electricity.
in solid ionic compounds, there are no free electrons so it can't conduct electricity.
But in aqueous form the forces of attraction are broken and the ions (cations and anions) are free to move. This means there are free electrons that allow the aqueous compound to conduct electricity.
Answer:
Mole ratio for a compound
The chemical formula tells us the mole ratio.
CO2 = 1 CO2 molecule : 1 C atom : 2 O atoms.
Mole ratio for a reaction
The balanced chemical reactions tells us.
C12H22O11 + 12 O2 12 CO2 + 11 H2O
1 C12H22O11 molecule: 12 O2 molecules : 12 CO2
molecules : 11 H2O molecules.
Applications of the mole ratio concept
grams <--> moles <--> moles <--> grams
Explanation:
When you put a popcorn kernel in a microwave, the microwave heats up the water. The water then evaporates, and the air wants to escape. There will be so much pressure that the skin/shell of the kernel will break, exposing the corn.
3.65 X 10 to the power of 8
We are given the base dissociation constant, Kb, for Pyridine (C5H5N) which is 1.4x10^-9. The acid dissociation constant, Ka for the Pyridium ion or the conjugate acid of Pyridine is to be determined. We know from our chemistry classes that:
Kw = Kb * Ka
where Kw is always equal to 1x10^-14
so, to solve for Ka of Pyridium ion, substitute Kb to the equation together with Kw and solve for Ka:
1x10^-14 = 1.4x10^-9 * Ka
solve for Ka
Ka = 7.14x10^-6
Therefore, the acid dissociation constant of Pyridinium ion is 7.14x10^-6.
