In the given reaction Fe³⁺ + 2H₂O ⇄ FeOH²⁺ + H₃O⁺ Lewis acid is Fe³⁺ and the Lewis base is H₂O.

<h3>What is a Lewis acid and Lewis base?</h3>

According to the Lewis theory of acid-base reactions, acids accept pairs of electrons and bases donate pairs of electrons.
Any substance like H+ ion, which is capable of accepting a pair of nonbonding electrons or an electron-pair acceptor is known as a Lewis acid.
Any substance, like the OH- ion, that is capable of donating a pair of nonbonding electrons or an electron-pair donor is a Lewis base.
From the Lewis theory, with no change in the oxidation numbers of any atoms, acids react with bases to share a pair of electrons.

one kilogram of water (V1 = 1003 cm^3*kg-1) in a piston cylinder device at (25°C) and 1 bar is compressed in a mechanically reve

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Q = -18118.5KJ

W = -18118.5KJ

∆U = 0

∆H = 0

∆S = -60.80KJ/KgK

Explanation:

W = RTln(P1/P2)

P1 = 1bar = 100KN/m^2, P2 = 1500bar = 1500×100 = 150000KN/m^2, T = 23°C = 23 + 273K = 298K

W = 8.314×298ln(100/150000) = 8.314×298×-7.313 = -18118.5KJ ( work is negative because the isothermal process involves compression)

∆U = Cv(T2 - T1)

For an isothermal process, temperature is constant, so T2 = T1

∆U = Cv(T1 - T1) = Cv × 0 = 0

Q = ∆U + W = 0 + (-18118.5) = 0 - 18118.5 = -18118.5KJ

∆H = Cp(T2 - T1)

T2 = T1

∆H = Cp(T1 - T1) = Cp × 0 = 0

∆S = Q/T

Mass of water = 1kg

Heat transferred (Q) per kilogram of water = -18118.5KJ/Kg

∆S = (-18118.5KJ/Kg)/298K = -60.80KJ/KgK

How are lysosomes similar to vacuoles?

lawyer [7]

Lysosomes are simlar to vacuoles by them working together basically. they both are enclosed organelle compartments within cell. vacuoles store the food waste, bacteria, etc. while the lysosomes breaks them down

In a 1.0x10^-4 M solution of HClO(aq), identify the relative molar amounts of these species:HClO, OH-, H3O+, OCl-, H2O

yarga [219]

HClO is a weak acid, which means the ions do not fully dissociate. The hydrolysis reaction for the hypochlorous acid is:

HClO + H2O ⇄ H3O+ +OCl-

Then the equilibrium constant, Ka, of dilute HClO would be:

$K_{a} = \frac{[ H_{3} O^{+} ][O Cl^{-} ]}{HClO}$

Then we do the ICE table. I is for the initial concentration, C for the change and E for the excess.

HClO + H2O ⇄ H3O+ + OCl-
I 1.0x10^-4 0 0
C -x +x +x
E (1.0x10^-4 - x) x x

Substituting the excess (E) concentration to the Ka equation:

$K_{a} = \frac{[x ][x]}{1.0 \ x \ 10^{-4} - x }$

Simplifying the equation would yield a quadratic equation:

$x^{2} + K_{a}x-(1.0 \ x \ 10^{-4}) K_{a}=0$

The Ka for HClO is an experimental data which was determined to be 2.9 x 10^-8. Substitute this to the equation, determine the roots, then you get the value for x, which is the concentration of H3O+ and ClO-. Just use your calculator feature Shift-Solve.

x = 1.688 x 10^-6 M = [H3O+] = [ClO-]

Then, you can determine the conc of [OH-] through pH.

pH = -log {H3O+] = -log [1.688 x 10^-6] = 5.77
pOH = 14 - pH = 14 - 5.77 = 8.23
pOH = 8.23 = -log [OH-]
[OH-] = 5.89 x 10^-9 M

Also, since HClO is (1.0x10^-4 - x), then it's concentration would be:
[HClO] = 1.0x10^-4 - 1.688 x 10^-6 = 9.83 x10^-5 M

Let's summarize all concentrations:
[HClO] = 9.83 x10^-5 M
[OH-] = 5.89 x 10^-9 M
[H3O+] = [ClO-] = 1.688 x 10^-6 M
Since the solution is dilute, H2O is relatively higher in concentration.

Thus in relative amounts, the order would be

H2O >>> HClO > H3O+ = ClO- > OH-

How does a small set of elements combine to form molecules , compounds and mixtures, which are used in your daily lives?

Anastaziya [24]

Elements are the simplest substances in nature that cannot be broken down into smaller parts by normal chemical means. They contain only atoms of the same type, ones that have identical chemical properties. There are at least 90 naturally-occurring elements, plus man-made ones. If you look at a periodic table, you'll see the names of each of these elements and some of their properties (such as mass, or how heavy the atom is).

Molecules & Compounds

When atoms from different elements are joined together in groups, they form molecules. The atoms in molecules bind together chemically, which means that the atoms cannot be separated again by physical means, such as filtration. The molecule has different properties from the elements from which is was made. A water molecule is not three separate atoms, two hydrogen (H) and one oxygen (O), but it is actually a unique H2O molecule with its own set of distinct properties.

Like elements that are formed of atoms of the same sort, compounds are formed of molecules of the same sort. The elements can be combined into about 2 million different compounds! Did you know that eggshells are made up of a calcium carbonate compound? And citric acid, which is found in oranges and other citrus fruit, is a compound of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. Your kids might find it helpful to do a science research project finding other common compounds around your house. Make hypotheses and do research using a chemistry reference book, web site, or text book to find out the answers.

There are more carbon compounds than compounds of any other element. Organic compound is the name for the carbon compounds found in all living things.

Mixtures - A Bit of This and That

All matter can be classified into two categories: pure substances and mixtures. A pure substance consists of a single element or compound. Iron is formed only of iron (Fe) atoms; table salt is formed only of sodium chloride (NaCl) molecules. A mixture, however, is made up of different compounds and/or elements. When salt is added to water to make saltwater, it becomes a mixture. The salt and water molecules do not combine to form new molecules, but only "mix" together while still retaining their identities. Air is also a mixture, containing just the right amounts of nitrogen, oxygen, and other gases for life on Earth.

Not all mixtures have the same composition throughout. Salt water does, but Italian salad dressing does not--the parts separate and are not perfectly blended or homogenous. Mixtures of metals are called alloys (bronze is an alloy of copper and tin); liquid mixtures (such as saltwater) are called solutions.

The substances that make up a mixture can be separated by physical means because they have different physical properties (such as different melting points) and are not chemically bonded. A mixture can be separated into its parts in a variety of ways, including decantation (letting the sand in a mixture of water and sand settle, and then draining off the water, for example), filtering, and evaporation. You can use a kitchen funnel and coffee filter for filtration, and either use sunlight or low heat for evaporation. Try out these methods on saltwater and a sand and water mixture to see how they work and compare the results. Evaporation will work for both saltwater and sand and water solutions, but filtration will not work for saltwater. Can you think of other examples where a separating method will work for one mixture and not another? Another one to try is lemon juice, a mixture of water and citric acid; what do you think happens when it is boiled? The water evaporates and eventually leaves nothing but citric acid crystals

1.6x10^23 lead atoms. Find the weight in grams

Ber [7]

Moles of lead(Pb) = 1.6x10^23/6.02x10^23 = 0.265 moles.

Weight of lead = moles x atomic weight of lead
= 0.265x207.2
= 54.908 grams.

Hope this helps!
