Your answer should be C.) +2. "All the elements in Group 2 have two electrons in their valence shells, giving them an oxidation state of +2."

Comparing weak acids and strong acids of equal concentrations which of the following statements is true The pH of the weak acid
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

the true statement is... The pH of the weak acid will be higher than the pH of the strong acid

Explanation:

pH is a measured of the extent to which acids dissociate into ions when plced in aqueous solution.

Strong acid dissociate near-completely, and weak acids barely dissociate.

At equal concentrations, a strong acid will have a lower pH than a weak acid, since the strong one will donate more proton to the solution.

Covalent solutes are considered non-electrolytes. What does this mean for the conductivity of the solution? A) Non-electrolytes
iogann1982 [59]

Electrolytes are those which dissociates in solution and produces ions.

Ions can carry current,so Electrolytes conduct electiricity.

And non electrolytes are those which do not dissociate in solution and doesnt produce ions.

Since non electrolytes do not produce ions they cannot conduct electricity.

<u>Hence the right option is:</u>

B) Non-electrolytes dissolve and do not dissociate in water providing no charged ions to conduct electricity.

2.50 g of Zn is added to 5.00 g of HCl
Debora [2.8K]
Zn+2HCl ----> 2ZnCl2 + H2

For 2.50 g of Zn

Mass per mol = 2.50/molar mass of Zn = 2.50/65.38 = 0.0382 g/mol
There are two moles of ZnCl2 and total mass = 2*0.0382*molar mass of ZnCl2 = 2*0.0382*136.286 = 10.42 g

For 2 g of HCl

Mass per mol = 2/2*molar mass of HCl = 2/ (2*36.46) = 0.0274 g/mol
For the two moles of ZnCl2, mass produced = 2*0.0274*136.286 = 7.48 g

It can be noted that 2 g of HCl produced less amount of ZnCl and thus it is the limiting reagent.

Titration of 0.824 g of potassium hydrogen phthalate required 38.314 g of naoh solution to reach the end point detected by pheno
melamori03 [73]

1.062 mol/kg.

<em>Step 1</em>. Write the balanced equation for the neutralization.

MM = 204.22 40.00

KHC8H4O4 + NaOH → KNaC8H4O4 + H2O

<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the moles of potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP)

Moles of KHP = 824 mg KHP × (1 mmol KHP/204.22 mg KHP)

= 4.035 mmol KHP

<em>Step 3</em>. Calculate the moles of NaOH

Moles of NaOH = 4.035 mmol KHP × (1 mmol NaOH/(1 mmol KHP)

= 4.035 mmol NaOH

<em>Step 4</em>. Calculate the mass of the NaOH

Mass of NaOH = 4.035 mmol NaOH × (40.00 mg NaOH/1 mmol NaOH)

= 161 mg NaOH

<em>Step 5</em>. Calculate the mass of the water

Mass of water = mass of solution – mass of NaOH = 38.134 g - 0.161 g

= 37.973 g

<em>Step 6</em>. Calculate the molal concentration of the NaOH

<em>b</em> = moles of NaOH/kg of water = 0.040 35 mol/0.037 973 kg = 1.062 mol/kg
