Surface tension ..viscosity is the thickness of a liquid, doesn't fit here...condensation and evaporation are processes not properties.

Answer : The correct option is, surface tension.

Explanation :

Viscosity : It is defined as the resistance of a liquid to flowing.

Condensation : It is a physical process in which a phase of matter converted from gas phase to liquid phase.

Evaporation : It is a process in which a phases changes from liquid phase to gas phase.

Surface tension : It is defined as a force present within the layer of a liquid that causes the layer act as an elastic sheet.

Therefore, the surface of water can act like a sort of skin due to a property of liquids called surface tension.

A student dissolved 1.805g of a monoacidic weak base in 55mL of water. Calculate the equilibrium pH for the weak monoacidic base

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

11.39

Explanation:

Given that:

$pK_{b}=4.82$

$K_{b}=10^{-4.82}=1.5136\times 10^{-5}$

Given that:

Mass = 1.805 g

Molar mass = 82.0343 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{1.805\ g}{82.0343\ g/mol}$

$Moles= 0.022\ moles$

Given Volume = 55 mL = 0.055 L ( 1 mL = 0.001 L)

$Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}$

$Molarity=\frac{0.022}{0.055}$

Concentration = 0.4 M

Consider the ICE take for the dissociation of the base as:

B + H₂O ⇄ BH⁺ + OH⁻

At t=0 0.4 - -

At t =equilibrium (0.4-x) x x

The expression for dissociation constant is:

$K_{b}=\frac {\left [ BH^{+} \right ]\left [ {OH}^- \right ]}{[B]}$

$1.5136\times 10^{-5}=\frac {x^2}{0.4-x}$

x is very small, so (0.4 - x) ≅ 0.4

Solving for x, we get:

x = 2.4606×10⁻³ M

pOH = -log[OH⁻] = -log(2.4606×10⁻³) = 2.61

pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 2.61 = 11.39

All of the following reactions can be described as displacement reactions except:____________.

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Explanation:

The reaction that is not a displacement reaction from all the options is $C_6H_6_{(l)} + Cl_{2(g)} --> C_6H_5Cl_{(l)} + HCl_{(g)}$

In a displacement reaction, a part of one of the reactants is replaced by another reactant. In single displacement reactions, one of the reactants completely displaces and replaces part of another reactant. In double displacement reaction, cations and anions in the reactants switch partners to form products.

Options a, c, d, and e involves the displacement of a part of one of the reactants by another reactant while option b does not.

Correct option = b.

Which property of water makes it helpful to use in car radiators?

Nezavi [6.7K]

The correct answer is C) Water takes long to heat and cool down than other liquids.

It doesn't climb up the sides of a tube any more than other solutions do, and being a universal solvent has nothing to do with radiators. It does however take a long time to heat and cool down since you don't have a 100+ celsius burner to heat it up in an instant.
