You are given aqueous solutions of six different substances and asked to determine whether they are strong, weak, or nonelectrol
kogti [31]

Answer:

Answer is explained below;

Explanation:

Electrolytes are any substances that dissociate into charged particles called ions when dissolved in water. The positively charged ions called cations and the negatively charged ions called anions move toward the negative and positive terminals (cathode and anode) of an electric circuit.

When a substance dissolved in water completely dissociates into ions, it is called a strong electrolyte. The aqueous solutions containing strong electrolytes conduct electricity very well and the examples include strong acids and soluble ionic compounds such as barium chloride, sodium hydroxide, etc.  

When a substance dissolved in water does not completely dissociate into ions, it is called a weak electrolyte. Since the aqueous solutions containing weak electrolytes have relatively few ions, their electrical conductivity is very low compared to the solutions containing strong electrolytes. Examples of weak electrolytes include weak acids and bases like acetic acid, ammonia, etc.

When a substance does not dissociate into ions when dissolved in water, it is called a nonelectrolyte. Since the aqueous solutions containing nonelectrolytes do not contain any ions, such solutions do not conduct electricity. Examples of nonelectrolytes are ethanol, aldehydes, glucose, ketones, etc.

If a solution contains dissolved ions, it conducts electricity and as the ion concentration increases, the conductivity also increases. To determine whether the aqueous solutions of six different substances are strong, weak, or nonelectrolytes, we can test them by applying a voltage to electrodes immersed in the solutions and a light bulb. By observing the brightness of the light bulb or by measuring the flow of electrical current, we can find out which solution contains a strong electrolyte or weak electrolyte, or nonelectrolyte.

If the solution contains a nonelectrolyte, the current flow is nil and the light bulb does not glow. If the solution contains a strong electrolyte, the current flow is very strong and so the brightness of the light bulb is very high. If the solution contains a weak electrolyte, the current flow is much low compared to the strong electrolyte and the light bulb glows, but the brightness is very low.

a blackbody is radiating with a characteristic wavelength of 9 microns what is the blackbody temperature answer in kelvin
Daniel [21]

This question involves the concepts of Wein's displacement law and characteristic wavelength.

The blackbody temperature will be "3.22 x 10⁵ k".

<h3>WEIN'S DISPLACEMENT LAW</h3>

According to Wein's displacement law,

\lambda_{max} T = c\\\\T=\frac{c}{\lambda_{max}}

where,

  • \lambda_{max} = characteristic wavelength = 9 μm = 9 x 10⁻⁹ m
  • T = temperature = ?
  • c = Wein's displacment constant = 2.897 x 10⁻³ m.k

Therefore,

T=\frac{2.897\ x\ 10^{-3}\ m.k}{9\ x\ 10^{-9}\ m}

T = 3.22 x 10⁵ k
