Chemical substances that dissolve in water or react with water to release ions are known as

1 answer:

8 0

The answer is electrolytes. Strong electrolytes like strong acids, strong bases and salts dissociate completely into ions when dissolved and no neutral molecules are present in their solution. Weak electrolytes like weak acids and weak bases do not completely ionize in water and some neutral molecules are present in their solution, while nonelectrolytes do not dissociate into ions when in solution at all.

Translation: Explain the importance of energy levels,

tigry1 [53]

Answer: Formation of a stable Duplet or Octet structure

Explanation:

Energy levels refers to the definite amount of energies that electrons can have when occupying specific orbitals.

Examples are:

Level 1 as in 1s

Level 2 as in 2s, 2p

Level 3 as in 3s 3p 3d

Level 4 as in 4s 4p 4d 4f

Level 5 as in 5s .......

Level 6 as in 6s .........

Electrons can be excited to higher energy levels by absorbing energy from the surroundings during chemical reactions and so forming chemical bonds like ionic, covalent etc.

A perfect example is Sodium (Na) and Chlorine (Cl) in Sodium chloride (NaCl)

Sodium has atomic number of 11, so energy level is 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s1

Chlorine has atomic number of 17, so energy level is 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p5

You will notice that the both Na and Cl, has electrons in the energy level 3. Then, the bond formed must be one that lead to the formation of a OCTET structure: as in Na gives off its 3s1 electron TO Cl.

Thus, Cl now becomes 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p6 - an OCTET STRUCTURE (with completely filled outershell and full energy level 3) in NACl.

So, a duplet or Octet structure is the answer

The reactant concentration in a first-order reaction was 8.10×10−2 M M after 15.0 s s and 1.80×10−3 M M after 90.0 s s . What is

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The answer to the question is

The rate constant for the reaction is 1.056×10⁻³ M/s

Explanation:

To solve the question, e note that

For a zero order reaction, the rate law is given by

[A] = -k×t + [A]₀

This can be represented by the linear equation y = mx + c

Such that y = [A], m which is the gradient is = -k, and the intercept c = [A]₀

Therefore the rate constant k which is the gradient is given by

Gradient = $\frac{[A]_{2} - [A]_{1} }{t_{2} - t_{1} }$ where [A]₁ = 8.10×10⁻² M and [A]₂ = 1.80×10⁻³ M

= $\frac{1.80*10^{-3} M- 8.10*10^{-2} M}{90 s - 15 s}$ = -0.001056 M/s = -1.056×10⁻³ M/s

Threfore k = 1.056×10⁻³ M/s
