NaCHO would increase the ph of the solution

NaBr and KCl are neutral substances that cannot change the pH of the formic acid solution.

Since HCl is a potent acid, adding more of it will cause the pH of the solution to decrease even more. Regarding NaCHO, it stands for sodium citrate, which is a weak base. NaCHO can thereby increase the pH of the formic acid solution.

There are many different ways to define acids and bases. According to the bronsted-Lowry definition, a base is a proton acceptor, whereas an acid is a proton giver. According to Lewis, an acid is an electron pair acceptor, whereas a base is an electron pair giver.

You are given two closed containers. Each containing a liquid solvent. Ammonia and table salt will dissolve in container A. Hexa

snow_tiger [21]

Ammonia and table salt dissolves in polar solvents, so A is water,
CO2 and hexane are non-polar substances, so they are going to be dissolved in non-polar solvent, so I think it is going to be carbon tetrachloride

Answer is <span>A) A - water; B - carbon tetrachloride

Table salt does not dissolve in oil and CCl4, and Br2 is too active and it is going to react with NH3.</span>

A 2.0-liter aqueous solution contains a total of 3.0 moles of dissolved NH4Cl at 25°C and standard pressure.

vladimir1956 [14]

The molarity is a concentration unit which defined as the number of moles of solute divided by the number of liters of solution. So the molarity of the solution is 3/2=1.5 mol/L.

How many Ne atoms are contained in 32.0 g of the element?

Svetlanka [38]

Mass atomic of Ne=20.18 u
Therefore:
molar mass=20.18 g/1 mol

1 mole=6.022*10²³ particles (atoms or molecules)

Then: 6.022*10²³ atoms are contained in 20.18g

Now, We can solve this problem by the three rule.

6.022*10²³ atoms-------------------20.18 g
x------------------------------------------32 g

x=(6.022*10²³ atoms * 32 g)/20.18 g=9.55*10²³ atoms.

Answer: 9.55*10²³ Ne atoms are contained in 32 g of the element.

Three beakers contain clear, colorless liquids. one beaker contains pure water, another contains salt water, and another contain

tiny-mole [99]

First, we'll identify the beaker containing pure water as follows:
We'll take equal masses from each of the three beakers and measure the mass of each.
We'll then identify the density of each by using the rule : density =mass/volume
Pure water will be the liquid having density equal to 1 gm/cm^3

Then, we'll differentiate between the salt and sugar solution by measuring the conductivity of each solution. Salt solution is a good conductor while solution of sugar is a bad conductor.
