Knowing the molarity of a solution is more meaningful than knowing whether a solution is dilute or concentrated. explain.

1 answer:

5 0

Molarity is a measure of a solution's concentration calculation by getting the ratio of the number of moles of solute to the total volume of solution. This has a unit of M or molar, equivalent to mole/L.

It is more important and meaningful to know the molarity rather than if the solution is dilute or concentrated because molarity gives the QUANTITATIVE approach of knowing the concentration while the second one only gives us the QUALITATIVE description of the solution. Hence, we are able to calculate for other unknown parameters if we have the molarity known.

Which element has the same number of valence electrons as calcium?

kipiarov [429]

Answer:

Barium has the same number of valence electrons as calcium

Explanation:

Valence electrons is the number of electrons of an atom on the outer shell.

Those valence electrons can participate in the formation of a chemical bond (if the outer shell is not closed); in a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair.

Calcium is an atom, part of group 2, called the alkaline earth metals. The alkaline earth metals have 2 valence electrons.

Sulfur is part of a group 16, called the chalcogens or oxygen family. Those atoms have 6 valence electrons. They can form a bound with atoms of group 2 such as calcium, but do not have the same number of valence electrons.

Potassium is part of group 1, called the alkali metals or lithium family. Those atoms have 1 valence electrons. That means Potassium do not have the same number of valence electrons like calcium.

Neon is part of group 18, the noble gasses. Those are stable atoms, which means they have 8 valence electrons. They do not have the same number of valence electrons like Calcium.

Barium an atom, part of group 2, called the alkaline earth metals. The alkaline earth metals have 2 valence electrons. Calcium is also part of this group.

This means barium has the same number of valence electrons as Calcium.

What is the chemical formula for a compound between Li and Br?

natima [27]

LiBr.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Note that the group number in this answer refers to the new IUPAC group number, which ranges from 1 to 18. Counts from the left. Start with the first two column (group 1 and 2), go on to the transition elements (Sc, Ti, etc. in group 3 through 12), and continue with the nonmetals (group 13 through 18).

Li is a group 1 metal. As a metal, it tends to form positive ions ("cations"). Metals in group 1 and 2 are main group metals. The charge on main group metal ions tends to be the same as the group number of the metal. Li is in group 1. The charge on an Li ion will be +1. Formula of the Li ion will be $\text{Li}^{+}$ .

Br is a group 17 nonmetal. As a nonmetal, it tends to form negative ions ("anions"). The charge on nonmetal ions excepting for H tends to equal the group number of the nonmetal minus 18. Br is in group 17. The charge on a Br ion will be 17 - 18 = -1. Formula of the Br ion will be $\text{Br}^{-}$

All the ions in an ionic compound carry charge. However, some of the ions like $\text{Li}^+$ are positive. Others ions like $\text{Br}^{-}$ are negative. Charge on the two types of ions balance each other. As a result, the compound is overall neutral.

1 × (+1) + 1 × (-1) = 0. The positive charge on one $\text{Li}^{+}$ ion balances the negative charge on one $\text{Br}^{-}$ ion. The two ions would pair up at a 1:1 ratio.

The empirical formula for an ionic compound shows all the ions in the compound. Positive ions are written in front of negative ions. $\text{Li}^{+}$ is positive and $\text{Br}^{-}$ is negative. The formula shall also show the simplest ratio between the ions. For the compound between Li and Br, a 1:1 ratio will be the simplest. The "1" subscript in an empirical formula can be omitted. Hence the formula: LiBr.

Write the balanced chemical equation between H2SO4H2SO4 and KOHKOH in aqueous solution. This is called a neutralization reaction

const2013 [10]

Answer:

0.185M sulfuric acid

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

H₂SO₄ + 2KOH → K₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

1 mole of sulfuric acid reacts with 2 moles of KOH

Initial moles of H₂SO₄ and KOH are:

H₂SO₄: 0.750L ₓ (0.470mol / L) = 0.3525 moles of H₂SO₄

KOH: 0.700L ₓ (0.240mol / L) = 0.168 moles of KOH

The moles of sulfuric acis that react with KOH are:

0.168mol KOH ₓ (1 mole H₂SO₄ / 2 moles KOH) = 0.0840 moles of sulfuric acid.

Thus, moles that remain are:

0.3525moles - 0.0840 moles = 0.2685 moles of sulfuric acid remains

As total volume is 0.700L + 0.750L = 1.450L, concentration is:

0.2685mol / 1.450L = 0.185M sulfuric acid

Please help with both

kupik [55]

Answer:

D =Average atomic mass = 10.801 amu.

5) True

Explanation:

Abundance of B¹⁰= 19.9%

Abundance of B¹¹ = 80.1%

Atomic mass of B¹⁰ = 10 amu

Atomic mass of B¹¹ = 11 amu

Average atomic mass = ?

Solution:

Average atomic mass = (abundance of 1st isotope × its atomic mass) +(abundance of 2nd isotope × its atomic mass) / 100

Average atomic mass = (10×19.9)+(11×80.1) /100

Average atomic mass = 199 + 881.1 / 100

Average atomic mass = 1080.1 / 100

Average atomic mass = 10.801 amu.

2)A chemical reaction is one in which a new elements is created

True

False

Answer:

In chemical reaction new substances are created.

For example:

Photosynthesis:

It is the process in which in the presence of sun light and chlorophyll by using carbon dioxide and water plants produce the oxygen and glucose.

Carbon dioxide + water + energy → glucose + oxygen

water is supplied through the roots, carbon dioxide collected through stomata and sun light is capture by chloroplast.

Chemical equation:

6H₂O + 6CO₂ + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

it is known from balanced chemical equation that 6 moles of carbon dioxide react with the six moles of water and created one mole of glucose and six mole of oxygen.
