Answer:
D. The electron-withdrawing fluorine atoms pull electron density from the oxygen in trifluoroacetate. The negative charge is more stabilized in trifluoroacetate by this effect.
Explanation:
The structures of trifluoroacetate and acetic acid are both shown in the image attached.
The trifluoroacetate anion (CF3CO2-), just like the acetate anion has in the middle, two oxygen atoms.
However, in the trifluoroacetate anion, there are also three electronegative fluorine atoms attached to the nearby carbon atom attached to the carbonyl, and these pull some electron density through the sigma bonding network away from the oxygen atoms, thereby spreading out the negative charge further. This effect, called the "inductive effect" stabilizes the anion formed,the trifouoroacetate anion is thus more stabilized than the acetate anion.
Hence, trifluoroacetic acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid, having a pKa of -0.18.
True because it is warmer closer to the equator

<h3>What is nitrogen balance?</h3>
The term nitrogen balance refers to the fact that there is a balance between the intake and the loss of nitrogen. The intake of nitrogen occurs when a person takes in food that contain proteins which are a rich source of nitrogen in the body and helps in the process of the build up of the cells in the body.

Maybe you can apply the Ohms law to this question:
Ohms law is voltage=current (I) x resistance (R)
I'm afraid that is the only concept i know abt electricity. i hope u find a solution;)
Answer:
Highest boiling point - 0.43 m Urea
Second highest boiling point - 0.20 m NiSO4
Third highest boiling point - 0.19 m NH4I
Lowest boiling point - 0.17 m NH4NO3
Explanation:
We know that;
ΔT = kb m i
Where;
ΔT = boiling point elevation
kb = boiling point constant
m = molality of the solution
i = Van't Hoff factor
For NiSO4 , NH4I and NH4NO3 , the Van't Hoff factor, i = 2
But for Urea, the Van't Hoff factor, i = 1
We also have to consider both the values of the molality and Van't Hoff factor , knowing that a higher molality and a higher Van't Hoff factor leads to a higher ΔT and consequently a higher boiling point.
This facts above account for the arrangement of substances shown in the answer.
