You may suppose you have a 0.1 M solution of NH3, from:
NH4Cl + NaOH > NH3 + H2O.
Then you can compute the pH from the concentration of NH3 and its pKb.
The concentration is high enough to use the simplified formula:
[OH] = sqr(Kb*conc)
Answer:
The correct answer is - hard water reacts to form the calcium or magnesium salt of the organic acid of the soap.
Explanation:
Soaps are made up of fatty acids or oils by treating with strong alkali and are salts of sodium and potassium. Hard water, on the other hand, has a high concentration of minerals in comparison to soft water. When hard water and soap are mixed together the salts of the minerals like Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions present in hard water react with fatty acids of the soap.
The sodium salts are changed to the salts of calcium and magnesium which are precipitated to an insoluble substance. The insoluble salts of the calcium or magnesium dirt stick on the clothes thus cleaning ability of soap is reduced.
Answer:
.
Explanation:
Lithium is in the first column of the periodic table, so it will have 1 valence electron.
Bromine is in the seventh column of the periodic table, so it will have seven valence electrons.
They must combine in a way to reach 8.
When combining elements to form compounds, the "crisscross method" is used. Above Li would be a charge of +1, and above Br would be a charge of -1.
Cross the 1 from the top of Li to the bottom of Br, and so there is 1 Br.
Cross the 1 from the top of Br to the bottom of Li, and so there is 1 Li.
It is not written BrLi because chemists decided to order them the other way. Technically speaking, it isn't wrong, but the positive charge is normally put on the left and the negative charge is normally put on the right.
