Arrhenius Acid:
                       Arrhenius Acid is any specie which when dissolved in water produces H⁺ (proton) Ions.

Nitrous Acid:
                    Nitrous Acid also acts as Arrhenius Acid when dissolved in water.

                          HNO₂  +  H₂O    →    NO₂⁻  +  H₃O⁺
Where,
                                H₃O⁺    ⇆    H⁺  +  H₂O

As HNO₂ produces H⁺ Ions in water, so it is an Arrhenius Acid.

"What is the change of entropy for 3.0 kg of water when the 3.0 kg of water is changed to ice at 0"
Artyom0805 [142]

Q: What is the change of entropy for 3.0 kg of water when the 3.0 kg of water is changed to ice at 0 °C? (Lf = 3.34 x 105 J/kg)

Answer:

-3670.33 J/K

Explanation:

Entropy: This can be defined as the degree of randomness or disorderliness of a substance. The S.I unit of Entropy is J/K.

Mathematically,  change of Entropy can be expressed as,

ΔS = ΔH/T ....................................... Equation 1

Where ΔS = Change of entropy, ΔH = heat change, T = temperature.

ΔH = -(Lf×m).................................... Equation 2

Note: ΔH is negative because heat is lost.

Where Lf = latent heat of ice = 3.34×10⁵ J/kg, m = 3.0 kg, m = mass of water = 3.0 kg

Substitute into equation

ΔH = -(3.34×10⁵×3.0)

ΔH = - 1002000 J.

But T = 0 °C = (0+273) K = 273 K.

Substitute into equation 1

ΔS = -1002000/273

ΔS = -3670.33 J/K

Note: The negative value of ΔS shows that the entropy of water decreases when it is changed to ice at 0 °C

The compound methyl butanoate smells like apples. Its percent composition is 58.8% C, 9.9% H, and 31.4% O. What’s the empirical
blsea [12.9K]
To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:

58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C

9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H

31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O

Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:

4.9/1.96 = 2.5

9.9/1.96 = 6

1.96/1.96 = 1

Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.

So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.

Please answer both questions.
Deffense [45]

Answer:

1)Krypton

2)11H

Explanation:

electrons=protons

protons=atomic number

mass number=protons+neutrons

mass number is the superscript

atomic number is the subscript.

1)The answer is Krypton because its atomic number= number of protons=number of electrons is 36.

mass number is 46+36=82.

2)subscript=atomic number=number of protons=number of electrons

i. H = electrons=1

=neutrons=0

ii. Cl=electrons=17

=neutrons=35-17=18

iii. Na=electrons=11

=neutrons=23-11= 12

so the answer is Hydrogen because it has 1 electron and 0 neutron.

I hope this helps.
