Answer: b.more acidic the solution

Explanation:

pH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution. Acids are substances which gives $H^+$ ions when dissolved in water.

$HX\rightarrow H^++X^-$

pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=log\frac {1}{H^+}$

Thus as pH and $H^+$ are inversely related, a solution having lower pH will have more amount of $H^+$ concentration , a lower amount of $OH^_$ concentration and will be more acidic.

Explain, in terms of element classification, why KBr is an ionic compound

enot [183]

LBr is ionic compound because k for potassium is metal which means it’s on the left side of the periodic table and Br which is bromine is a non metal which means is on the right side of the periodic table.

In Conclusion when a non metal and metal come together the are called ionic compound

Compare 1 mole of H2, 1 mole of O2, and 1 mole of F2. (a) Which has the largest number of molecules? Explain why. (b) Which has

AURORKA [14]

a) Answer:

Number of molecules in 1 mole

Explanation:

a) Whether we take any of the substance among all three of the given substances they will have the same number of molecules in 1 mole of the substance is considered and the value for this will be $6.023 x 10^23$

b) Answer:

In the given question mass of the substance which is greatest is asked for one mole and we also know that mass of one mole is given by molar mass.

Explanation:

b) It is known that $31.98g/mol$ is the molar mass for oxygen which is greater than that of hydrogen while fluorine has a molar mass of $38.0 g/mol$ which on comparison shows that, it is the highest amongst all three.

The decomposition of acetaldehyde is a second order reaction with a rate constant of 4.71 10−8 L/mol/s. What is the instantaneou

pochemuha

Answer: Rate of decomposition of acetaldehyde in a solution is $1.45\times 10^{-14}mol/Ls$

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.

For a reaction : $A\rightarrow products$

$Rate=k[A]^x$

k= rate constant

x = order of the reaction = 2

$Rate=4.71\times 10^{-8}L/mol/s\times {5.55\times 10^{-4}M}^2$

$Rate=1.45\times 10^{-14}$

Thus rate of decomposition of acetaldehyde in a solution is $1.45\times 10^{-14}mol/Ls$
