It would be reasonable to assume that the specific heats of NaOH and HCl solutions are the same as water given that the concentration of these solutions are low about 1 M or less.  Having low concentrations would mean that there is only small amount of particles of HCl or NaOH in the solution so most of the properties of the solution is the same as that of a pure water since less particles can interfere with any process. Specific heat is the amount of heat energy needed per mass in order to be able to raise the temperature by a degree. So, when these particles are present in small amount, it is only the water that would determine the amount of heat needed.

Why do minerals with metallic bonds conduct electricity so well?
Roman55 [17]

Answer and Explanation:

Because metallic bonding involves delocalized electrons. It is described as a "<em>sea of electrons</em>", because the electrons are not confined around the nucleus of metal atoms, but they are delocalized: thay can be located in one nucleus and then in another neighbor atom. Thus, the electrons have more freedom to move from one part of the metal to another and electricity is well conducted.

Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2): g/mol
Eva8 [605]

To determine the molar mass, you need to get the atomic mass of the molecule. To do this, check the periodic table for the atomic mass or average atomic weight of each element.

Mg = 24.305 x 1 = 24.305 amu

O = 15.9994 x 2 =31.9988 amu

H = 1.0079 x 2 = 2.0158 amu

 

Then, add all the components to get the atomic mass of the molecule.

24.305 amu + 31.9988 amu + 2.0158 amu = 58.3196 amu


The atomic mass is just equivalent to its molar mass.

So, the molar mass of Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) is 58.3196 g/mol.

Wha twill form an acidic solution in water?
Mariulka [41]

Answer:

A strong acid

Any strong acid (such as HCl, HBr, or HNO_{3}) will completely dissociate forming a very weak conjugate base and H3O which will be acidic.
