Classify these salts as acidic, basic, or neutral. KCL, NH4Br, K2CO3, NaCN, LiClO4? This is what I put but got it wrong: KCl = b

asic NH4Br = acidic K2CO3 = basic NaCN = basic LiClO = Neutral Can someone me what I did wrong, thanks.

KCl : neutral

NH₄Br : acidic

K₂CO₃ : basic

NaCN : basic

LiClO : basic

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Salt is an ion compound consisting of metal cations and residual acid anions. Cation salts can come from a base and anions come from acids. So that each salt has a base component and an acid component

So there are 4 properties of salt

1. salts from strong acids and strong bases are neutral

2. salts from strong acids and weak bases are acidic

3. salts from weak acids and strong bases are basic

4. salts of weak acids and weak bases depend on the value of the ionization constant of the acid and its base (Ka and Kb)

Ka> Kb is acidic

Ka <Kb is basic

Ka = Kb is neutral

  •  1. KCL,

salt of strong acid HCl and strong base of KOH, neutral

  • 2. NH₄Br,

salt of strong acid HBr and weak base NH₄OH, acidic

  •  3. K₂CO₃,

salt of H₂CO₃ weak acid and strong base KOH, basic

  • 4. NaCN,

salt of a weak acid HCN and a strong base NaOH, basic

  • 5. LiClO

salt of a weak acid HClO and a strong base LiOH, basic

In classifying salts as neutral, acidic, or basic, it is important to take note of the strength of the acids and bases that they come from. A strong acid and strong base produce a neutral salt. A weak acid and strong base produce a basic salt. A strong acid and weak base produce an acidic salt. So the answers must be:

KCl = neutral (from HCl and KOH)
NH4Br = acidic (from NH4 and HBr)
K2CO3 = basic (from KOH and H2CO3)
NaCN = basic (from NaOH and HCN)
LiClO = basic (from LiOH and HClO)

Answer:

-191.7°C

Explanation:

P . V = n . R . T

That's the Ideal Gases Law. It can be useful to solve the question.

We replace data:

2.5 atm . 8 L = 3 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . T°

(2.5 atm . 8 L) / (3 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K) = T°

T° = 81.3 K

We convert T° from K to C°

81.3K - 273 = -191.7°C

icang [17]

Answer:

The temperature of the air at this given elevation will be 53.32425°C

Explanation:

We can calculate the final temperature through the combined gas law. Therefore we will need to know 1 ) The initial volume, 2 ) The initial temperature, 3 ) Initial Pressure, 4 ) Final Volume, 5 ) Final Pressure.

Initial Volume = 1.2 L ; Initial Temperature = 25°C = 298.15 K ; Initial pressure = 1.0 atm  ; Final Volume = 1.8 L ; Final pressure = 0.73 atm  

We have all the information we need. Now let us substitute into the following formula, and solve for the final temperature ( T_2 ),

P_1V_1 / T_1 = P_2V_2 / T_2,

T_2 = P_2V_2T_1 / P_1V_1,

T_2 = 0.73 atm * 1.8 L * 298.15 K / 1 atm * 1.2 L = ( 0.73 * 1.8 * 298.15 / 1 * 1.2 ) K = 326.47425 K,

T_2 = 326.47425 K = 53.32425 C

Would you expect an organic compound to be soluble in water why
RSB [31]

Answer: All organic compound depends on  H-bonding with water. more stronger H-bonding with water more will be soluble.

Explanation:

1. It depends primarily upon the function groups of that compound. It also depends on the size of the compound.  

2. some organic compound which soluble in water for example: alcohols, ethers, carboxylic acids.  Because of the functional groups attached to the organic structure (the C-H backbone) are what effect the solubilities.Like carboxylic acids and alcohols form hydrogen bonds with the water, helping to solubilize it.  

3. Take alcohols for example: methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol are all completely soluble in water. By the time you get to butanol and some of the larger alcohols, including those with more complex structures, they tend to be less soluble.
