Answer:

a. the negative ends of water molecules surround the positive ions.

Explanation:

Ionization reaction is defined as the reaction in which an ionic compound dissociates into its ions when dissolved in aqueous solution.

Thus,

$NaCl_{(s)}\rightarrow Na^+_{(aq)}+Cl^-_{(aq)}$

When the ionic compound dissociates, the cation which is positively charged gets attracted to the oxygen (Negative ends) which is present in the water. The anion which is negatively charged gets attracted to the hydrogen (Positive ends) of the water.

Hence, the correct option is:- a. the negative ends of water molecules surround the positive ions.

Answer:

29.39% of AlCl₃ in the sample

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

MnO₂(s) + 2Cl⁻ + 4H⁺ → Mn²⁺ + Cl₂(g) + 2H₂O

We can find the amount of chloride in solution with the amount of MnO₂ that reacted as follows:

Initial mass MnO₂ = 0.6467g

Recovered mass = 0.3104g

Mass that reacted = 0.6467g - 0.3104g = 0.3363g

Moles MnO₂ -Molar mass: 86.9368g/mol-:

0.3363g * (1mol / 86.9368g) = 3.868x10⁻³ moles MnO₂

Moles Cl⁻:

3.868x10⁻³ moles MnO₂ * (2mol Cl⁻ / 1mol MnO₂) = 7.737x10⁻³ moles Cl⁻

Moles of AlCl₃ and mass -Molar mass AlCl₃: 133.34g/mol-:

7.737x10⁻³ moles Cl⁻ * (1mol AlCl₃ / 3mol Cl⁻) = 2.579x10⁻³ moles AlCl₃

2.579x10⁻³ moles AlCl₃ * (133.34g / mol) =

0.3439g of AlCl₃ are present in the sample.

The percent is:

0.3439g of AlCl₃ / 1.1701g * 100 =

<h3>29.39% of AlCl₃ in the sample</h3>

Explain the role light plays on the rate of photosynthesis.

Luda [366]

Answer:

The process of photosynthesis occurs when green plants use the energy of light to convert carbon dioxide (CO2) and water (H2O) into carbohydrates. Light energy is absorbed by chlorophyll, a photosynthetic pigment of the plant, while air containing carbon dioxide and oxygen enters the plant through the leaf stomata.

Answer:

6.67 moles

Explanation:

Given that:-

Moles of hydrogen gas produced = 10.0 moles

According the reaction shown below:-

$2Al + 6HCl\rightarrow 2AlCl_3 +3H_2$

3 moles of hydrogen gas are produced when 2 moles of aluminium undergoes reaction.

Also,

1 mole of hydrogen gas are produced when $\frac{2}{3}$ moles of aluminium undergoes reaction.

So,

10.0 moles of hydrogen gas are produced when $\frac{2}{3}\times 10.0$ moles of aluminium undergoes reaction.

Moles of Al needed = $\frac{2}{3}\times 10.0$ moles = 6.67 moles

Andrei [34K]

First we have to find Ka1 and Ka2
pKa1 = - log Ka1 so Ka1 = 0.059
pKa2 = - log Ka2 so Ka2 = 6.46 x 10⁻⁵
Looking at the values of equilibrium constants we can see that the first one is really big compared to second one. so, the pH will be affected mainly by the first ionization of the acid.
Oxalic acid is H₂C₂O₄
H₂C₂O₄ ⇄ H⁺ + HC₂O₄⁻
0.0356 M 0 0
0.0356 - x x x
Ka1 = $\frac{[H^+][HC2O4^-]}{[H2C2O4]}$ = x² / 0.0356 - x
x = 0.025 M
pH = - log [H⁺] = - log (0.025) = 1.6
