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.

If an atom has an atomic number of 6 and and abdomens mass of 12 how many electrons does it have
Basile [38]
Atomic number refers to the proton number of the atom itself. Number of electrons in an atom (an atom that is not reacted with any other molecules / Just the atom alone), is the same as the number of protons, because each electron has 1 negative charge, and each proton 1 positive charge, where they cancel out on each other to become a neutral charge.

So, when atomic number is 6, proton number is also 6, and number of electrons will also be 6 in that atom.

Hope this helps! :)

Which of the following expressions is the correct equilibrium-constant expression for the equilibrium between dinitrogen tetroxi
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

D. [NO₂]²/[N₂O₄]

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant expression for a reaction is products over reactants. Since NO₂ has a coefficient of 2, it will become an exponent.

So, it would be:

[NO₂]²/[N₂O₄]

Hope that helps.
