Answer:

B

Explanation:

An Arrhenius Acid is a substance that dissociates in water to form Hydrogen (H⁺) ions.

Let's write the dissociation reactions of each of the options :

⇒ KF = K⁺ + F⁻

⇒ HF = H⁺ + F⁻

⇒ KOH = K⁺ + OH⁻

⇒ LiH = Li⁺ + H⁻

Only HF forms a Hydrogen ion on dissociation, hence it is the Arrhenius Acid.

Answer:

Explanation:

Arrhenius acids are the substances that when dissolved in water are capable to give an H+ ion

Here

HF on dissolving into water releases H+ and F- ion so it's a Arrhenius acid

When it comes to physical changes like phase changes, there are two types of heat energy: sensible heat and latent heat. Sensible heat is the heat absorbed/released when you heat the substance but it doesn't change phase. An example would be heating lukewarm water. The substance is liquid all throughout. Latent heat, on the other hand, is the heat absorbed/released when there is a phase change. An example would be boiling water, because it changes liquid to vapor.

Hence, for freezing liquid, you use the latent heat, specifically the heat of fusion. The answer should be

2.5 g * (1 mol/18.02 g) * 6.03 kJ/mol = 0.84 kJ/mol

The answer is not in the choices. You only use Hvap if you boil water.

How much energy is required to melt a 20.0lb bag of ice a 0°c? A pound (lb.) is equivalent to 0.4536. The Hfusion of ice is +6.0

erma4kov [3.2K]

To compute the energy, Q, needed to melt a certain amount of ice, n, in moles, we have

$Q = n \Delta H_{f}$

where the latent heat of fusion for ice is equal to 6.009 kJ/mol.

Now, since we have a 20.0 lb ice, we must first convert its mass to grams. Thus mass = (20.0)(1000)(0.4536) = 9072 g.

To find the number of moles present, we must recall that the molar mass of water (ice) is equal to 1.00794(2) + 15.9994 ≈ 18.01 g/mol. Hence, we have

$ice_{moles} = (\frac{9072 g}{1})(\frac{1 mol}{18.01 g}) =503.72 moles$

Now, to compute for the molar heat of fusion, Q,

$Q = (503.72)(6.009) = 3026.9 kJ$

Therefore, the amount of heat needed to melt the 20-lb bag of ice is equal to 3026.9 kJ.

Answer: 3026.9 kJ

For the reaction between aqueous silver nitrate and aqueous sodium chloride, write each of the following. The products of the re

Answer:

A balanced ionic equation shows the reacting ions in a chemical reaction. These equations can be used to represent what happens in precipitation reactions or displacement reactions.

Precipitation reactions

In a typical precipitation reaction, two soluble reactants form an insoluble product and a soluble product.

For example, silver nitrate solution reacts with sodium chloride solution. Insoluble solid silver chloride and sodium nitrate solution form:

AgNO3(aq) + NaCl(aq) → AgCl(s) + NaNO3(aq)

The Na+ ions and NO3- ions remain separate in the sodium nitrate solution and do not form a precipitate. Ions that remain essentially unchanged during a reaction are called spectator ions.This means these can be ignored when writing the ionic equation. Only how the solid silver chloride forms is needed to be shown:

Ag+(aq) + Cl-(aq) → AgCl(s)

In a balanced ionic equation:

the number of positive and negative charges is the same

the numbers of atoms of each element on the left and right are the same

Displacement reactions

Displacement reactions take place when a reactive element displaces a less reactive element from one of its compounds.

A common type of displacement reaction takes place when a reactive metal reacts with the salt of a less reactive metal. For example, copper reacts with silver nitrate solution to produce silver and copper(II) nitrate solution:

2AgNO3(aq) + Cu(s) → 2Ag(s) + Cu(NO3)2(aq)

In this reaction, the NO3- ions remain in the solution and do not react - they are the spectator ions in this reaction. So, they can be removed from the ionic equation:

2Ag+(aq) + Cu(s) → 2Ag(s) + Cu2+(aq)

Question

Explain why this ionic equation is balanced:

Ba2+(aq) + SO42-(aq) → BaSO4(s)

Hide answer

There are the same numbers of atoms of each element on both sides of the equation. The total charge on both sides is also the same (zero).

Question

Balance this ionic equation, which represents the formation of a silver carbonate precipitate:

Ag+(aq) + CO32-(aq) → Ag2CO3(s)

Hide answer

2Ag+(aq) + CO32-(aq) → Ag2CO3(s)

Question

Balance this ionic equation, which represents the displacement of iodine from iodide ions by chlorine:

Cl2(aq) + I-(aq) → I2(aq) + Cl-(aq)

Hide answer

Cl2(aq) + 2I-(aq) → I2(aq) + 2Cl-(aq
