Explain how the presence of several oxygen atoms ina compound containing an-OH group can make the compound acidic.

1 answer:

7 0

<span>In each case, the same bond gets broken - the bond between the hydrogen and oxygen in an -OH group. Writing the rest of the molecule as "X"
</span>

The factors to consider

Two of the factors which influence the ionisation of an acid are:

<span>the strength of the bond being broken,the stability of the ions being formed.</span>

In these cases, you seem to be breaking the same oxygen-hydrogen bond each time, and so you might expect the strengths to be similar.

Consider the reaction 2NO(g) 1 O2(g) ¡ 2NO2(g) Suppose that at a particular moment during the reaction nitric oxide (NO) is reac

GalinKa [24]

<h2>a) The rate at which $NO_2$ is formed is 0.066 M/s</h2><h2>b) The rate at which molecular oxygen $O_2$ is reacting is 0.033 M/s</h2>

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

$2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g)$

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

Rate in terms of disappearance of $NO$ = $-\frac{1d[NO]}{2dt}$ = 0.066 M/s

Rate in terms of disappearance of $O_2$ = $-\frac{1d[O_2]}{dt}$

Rate in terms of appearance of $NO_2$ = $\frac{1d[NO_2]}{2dt}$

1. The rate of formation of $NO_2$

$-\frac{d[NO_2]}{2dt}=\frac{1d[NO]}{2dt}$

$\frac{1d[NO_2]}{dt}=\frac{2}{2}\times 0.066M/s=0.066M/s$

2. The rate of disappearance of $O_2$

$-\frac{1d[O_2]}{dt}=\frac{d[NO]}{2dt}$

$-\frac{1d[O_2]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.066M/s=0.033M/s$

Why was Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment so important?

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Answer is 'B' I think

Explanation:

Rutherford's Gold Foil Experiment proved the existence of a small massive center to atoms, which would later be known as the nucleus of an atom. Through previous experiments of shooting alpha particles, Rutherford knew they had considerable mass and speed.

The solubility of calcium sulfate at 30°c is 0.209 g/100 ml solution. calculate its ksp.

inessss [21]

Answer is: Ksp for calcium sulfate is 2.36·10⁻⁴.
Balanced chemical reaction (dissociation):
CaSO₄(s) → Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq).
m(CaSO₄) = 0.209 g.
n(CaSO₄) = m(CaSO₄) ÷ M(CaSO₄).
n(CaSO₄) = 0.209 g ÷ 136.14 g/mol.
n(CaSO₄) = 0.00153 mol.
s(CaSO₄) = n(CaSO₄) ÷ V(CaSO₄).
s(CaSO₄) = 0.00153 mol ÷ 0.1 L = 0.0153 M.
Ksp = [Ca²⁺] · [SO₄²⁻].
[Ca²⁺] = [SO₄²⁻] = s(CaSO₄).
Ksp = (0.0153 M)² = 2.36·10⁻⁴.
