The statement that best describes how an ionic compound dissolves in water is as follows: it separates into individual molecules and is an electrolyte, which is option C.

<h3>What is an ionic compound?</h3>

Ionic compound is any compound is a chemical compound composed of ions (charged atoms) held together by electrostatic forces termed ionic bonding.

Ionic compounds are electrolytes i.e. a substance when, in solution or when molten, ionizes and conducts electricity.

For example; sodium chloride (NaCl) is an ionic compound breaks down into sodium ions (Na+) and chloride ion (Cl-).

Therefore, the statement that best describes how an ionic compound dissolves in water is as follows: it separates into individual molecules and is an electrolyte.

Is Al2O3 an acid or a base?

kirza4 [7]

$Al_2O_3$ is aluminium oxide (also called aloxide, aloxite and alundum). It is neither acid nor base. It has amphoteric nature meaning it can act as an acid with bases and as a base with acids. It neutralises them to salts.

If equal volumes of 0.1 M HCl and 0.2 M TRIS (base form) are mixed together. The pKa of TRIS is 8.30. Which of the following sta

blondinia [14]

Answer:

option D is correct

D. This solution is a good buffer.

Explanation:

TRIS (HOCH $_{2}$ ) $_{3}$ CNH $_{2}$

if TRIS is react with HCL it will form salt

(HOCH $_{2}$ ) $_{3}$ CNH $_{2}$ + HCL ⇆ (HOCH $_{2}$ ) $_{3}$ NH $_{3}$ CL

Let the reference volume is 100

Mole of TRIS is = 100 × 0.2 = 20

Mole of HCL is = 100 × 0.1 = 10

In the reaction all of the HCL will Consumed,10 moles of the salt will form

and 10 mole of TRIS will left

hence , Final product will be salt +TRIS(9 base)

H = Pk $_{a}$ + log (base/ acid)

8.3 + log(10/10)

What is the theoretical yield of a reaction?

mestny [16]

I think it's D, because theoretical yield is like, the yield you'd get if 100% of the reactants formed to make product. Well that's how I think of it, but it has something to do with limiting reagents and stuff. Sorry this isn't a really detailed explanation.

A 0.4322 g sample of a potassium hydroxide – lithium hydroxide mixture requires 27.10 mL of 0.3565 M HCl for its titration to th

Yuki888 [10]

The mass percent lithium hydroxide in the mixture with potassium hydroxide, calculated from the equivalence point in the titration of HCl with the mixture, is 19.0%.

The mass percent of lithium hydroxide can be calculated with the following equation:

$\% = \frac{m_{LiOH}}{m_{t}} \times 100$ (1)

Where:

$m_{t} = m_{KOH} + m_{LiOH} = 0.4322 g$ (2)

We need to find the mass of LiOH.

From the titration, we can find the number of moles of the mixture since the number of moles of the acid is equal to the number of moles of the bases at the equivalence point.

$\eta_{HCl} = \eta_{LiOH} + \eta_{KOH}$

$0.0271 L*0.3565 \frac{mol}{L} = \eta_{LiOH} + \eta_{KOH}$

$\eta_{LiOH} + \eta_{KOH} = 9.66 \cdot 10^{-3} \:mol$

Since mol = m/M, where M: is the molar mass and m is the mass, we have:

$\frac{m_{LiOH}}{M_{LiOH}} + \frac{m_{KOH}}{M_{KOH}} = 9.66 \cdot 10^{-3} \:mol$ (3)

Solving equation (2) for m_{KOH} and entering into equation (3), we can find the mass of LiOH:

$\frac{m_{LiOH}}{M_{LiOH}} + \frac{0.4322 - m_{LiOH}}{M_{KOH}} = 9.66 \cdot 10^{-3} \:mol$

$\frac{m_{LiOH}}{23.95 g/mol} + \frac{0.4322 g - m_{LiOH}}{56.1056 g/mol} = 9.66 \cdot 10^{-3} \:mol$

Solving for $m_{LiOH}$ , we have:

$m_{LiOH} = 0.082 g$

Hence, the percent lithium hydroxide is (eq 1):

$\% = \frac{0.082 g}{0.4322 g} \times 100 = 19.0 \%$

Therefore, the mass percent lithium hydroxide in the mixture is 19.0%.

fomenos

Answer:

He assumed wrongly

Explanation:

It happened this way because the person assumed wrongly.

Most other compounds have the same physical appearance as water especially when in liquid form.

This can be a very tricky one in the laboratory.
The sense of taste is not the best way to fathom what a particular compound is made up of.
This is the reason why this student or person faced this sort of problem.
Water has different properties that can be tested for using simple techniques in the laboratory.
