Answer is : It is a good thermal and electrical conductor. -The main point to be noted is that aluminium is a highly reactive element and still it is used for making cooking utensils. The reason is that aluminium has a very high affinity for oxygen. So, it reacts with oxygen and forms a layer of aluminium oxide on its surface.
Answer: a) pH = 13.00 : basic
b) ![[H_3O^+]=1.0\times 10^{-12}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D%3D1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-12%7D)
: basic
c) pOH = 5.00 : basic
d) ![[OH^-]=1.0\times 10^{-9}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BOH%5E-%5D%3D1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-9%7D)
: acidic
Explanation:
pH or pOH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
pH is calculated by taking negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.
![pH=-\log [H_3O^+]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%20%5BH_3O%5E%2B%5D)
Acids have pH ranging from 1 to 6.9 and bases have pH ranging from 7.1 to 14.Neutral substances have pH of 7.
a) pH = 13.00
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
b)
Putting in the values:
![pH=-\log[1.0\times 10^{-12}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D-%5Clog%5B1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-12%7D%5D)
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
c) pOH = 5.00
As pH is more than 7, the solution is basic.
d)
Putting in the values:
![pOH=-\log[1.0\times 10^{-9}]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pOH%3D-%5Clog%5B1.0%5Ctimes%2010%5E%7B-9%7D%5D)
As pH is less than 7, the solution is acidic.
Answer:
The nuclear charge increases from boron to carbon, but there is no additional shielding( that is no additional shells).
Explanation:
First of all, we must know the electron configuration of carbon and boron.
Boron- 1s2 2s2 2p1
Carbon- 1s2 2s2 2p2
Moving from boron to carbon, the effective nuclear charge increases without a corresponding increase in the number of shells. Remember that shielding increases with increase in the number of intervening shells between the outermost electron and the nucleus. Since there isn't an increase in shells, boron experience a lower screening effect.
From
Zeff= Z- S
The Z for carbon is 6 while for boron is 5 even though both have the same number of screening electron S(4 screening electrons). Hence it is expected the Zeff(effective nuclear charge) for boron will be less than that of carbon.
Answer:
0.0125 moles of HCl
Explanation:
(0.50 mol/L)(0.025 L) = 0.0125 moles of HCl
