`Remember that an acid is something that donates hydrogen ions. So, when considering the formula HC2H3O2 (acetic acid), which of

the hydrogens listed are the ones that ionize (fall apart into solution as hydrogen ions)

Answer:

The H in the carboxyl group.

Explanation:

Acetic acid can be written as CH₃COOH, where -COOH is the functional group carboxyl, responsible for the acidity of organic acids. The H in the carboxyl group is the one that is donated in the acid reaction.

CH₃COOH(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ CH₃COO⁻(aq) + H₃O⁺

Acetic acid is a weak acid, so just a small fraction of the molecules undergo this reaction to donate their hydrogen.

what happens to the radius of the atoms of an element as you go towards the right in a row of the periodic table ?
Olegator [25]

Answer:

It decreases

Explanation:

As one moves from left to right on the periodic table, the radius of atoms reduces due to the nuclear pull.

  • The size of an atom estimated by the atomic radius is taken as half of the internuclear distance between the two covalently bonded atoms of non-metallic elements.
  • Across a period, atomic radius decreases progressively from left to right.
  • This is due to the increasing nuclear charge without attendant increase in the number of electronic shell.

What electron could have quantum numbers n = 2, l = 1, ml = 0, ms = +?
MrMuchimi
Answer is: electron in 2pz orbital.

The principal quantum number is one of four quantum numbers which are assigned to each electron in an atom to describe that electron's state, n=1,2,3... n=2 - <span>the </span>second energy level.<span>
The azimuthal quantum number is a quantum number for an atomic orbital that determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital. l = 0,1...n-1, when l = 1, that is p </span>subshell.

The magnetic quantum number<span>, </span><span>ml, show</span> orbital<span> in which the electron is located, ml = -l...+l, ml = 0  is pz orbital.</span>

The spin quantum number<span>, </span><span>ms</span><span>, is the spin of the electron; ms = +1/2 or -1/2.</span>

Strontium-90 is a radioisotope that will decrease in mass by one-half every 29 years. How many years will it take for a 10.0-gra
Lelechka [254]

Answer: It will take 29 years for a 10.0-gram sample of strontium-90 to decay to 5.00 grams

Explanation:

Radioactive decay process is a type of process in which a less stable nuclei decomposes to a stable nuclei by releasing some radiations or particles like alpha, beta particles or gamma-radiations. The radioactive decay follows first order kinetics.

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

Half life is represented by t_{\frac{1}{2}

t_{\frac{1}{2}=\frac{0.693}{\lambda}

\lambda = rate constant

Given : Strontium-90 decreases in mass  by one-half every 29 years , that is half life of Strontium-90  is 29 years.

As half life is independent of initial concentration, it will take 29 years for a 10.0-gram sample of strontium-90 to decay to 5.00 grams as the amount gets half.

An alkanol contains 37.5 carbon
kow [346]

Answer:

Empirical formula is CH₄

Molecular formula = C₂H₈

Explanation:

Mass of carbon = 37.5 g

Mass of hydrogen = 12.5 g

Molecular weight = 32 g/mol

Molecular formula = ?

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of C = 37.5 g /12g/mol = 3.125

Number of gram atoms of H = 12.5 g / 1.008 g/mol= 12.4

Atomic ratio:

C                 :            H            

3.125/3.125   :       12.4 /3.125

    1                :            4          

C : H : = 1 : 4

Empirical formula is CH₄

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

n = 32  / 16

n = 2

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 2 ( CH₄)

Molecular formula = C₂H₈
