What is true about protons within an atom?

1 answer:

4 0

It defines the element. If you change the protons, you change the type of element. A proton is positively charged and is most of the mass of the atom, next to the neutron. Neutrons have a very very very slightly higher mass.

Antacids work to relieve stomach acids because of which of the following types of reactions?

Anastaziya [24]

Answer: The correct answer is Option B.

Explanation:

Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which larger compound breaks down into two or more smaller compounds.

$AB\rightarrow A+B$

Double displacement reactions is defined as the chemical reaction in which exchange of ions takes place.

$AB+CD\rightarrow AD+CB$

Synthesis reaction is a type of reaction in which two or more smaller compounds combines to form a single large compound.

$A+B\rightarrow AB$

Single displacement reaction is a type of reaction in which a more reactive metal displaces a less reactive metal from its chemical reaction.

$A+BC\rightarrow AC+B$

In stomach, an acid is present known as hydrochloric acid and to neutralize its effect, antacid is taken which has $CaCO_$ as a component.

The reaction between HCl and $CaCO_3$ is a type of neutralization reaction and it is a type of double displacement reaction.

The equation between the two follows:

$CaCO_3+HCl\rightarrow CaCl_2+H_2O+CO_2$

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

If 21.00 mL of a 0.68 M solution of C6H5NH2 required 6.60 mL of the strong acid to completely neutralize the solution, what was

Andru [333]

Answer:

pH = 2.46

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since this neutralization reaction may be assumed to occur in a 1:1 mole ratio between the base and the strong acid, it is possible to write the following moles and volume-concentrations relationship for the equivalence point:

$n_{acid}=n_{base}=n_{salt}$

Whereas the moles of the salt are computed as shown below:

$n_{salt}=0.021L*0.68mol/L=0.01428mol$

So we can divide those moles by the total volume (0.021L+0.0066L=0.0276L) to obtain the concentration of the final salt:

$[salt]=0.01428mol/0.0276L=0.517M$

Now, we need to keep in mind that this is an acidic salt since the base is weak and the acid strong, so the determinant ionization is:

$C_6H_5NH_3^++H_2O\rightleftharpoons C_6H_5NH_2+H_3O^+$

Whose equilibrium expression is:

$Ka=\frac{[C_6H_5NH_2][H_3O^+]}{C_6H_5NH_3^+}$

Now, since the Kb of C6H5NH2 is 4.3 x 10^-10, its Ka is 2.326x10^-5 (Kw/Kb), we can also write:

$2.326x10^{-5}=\frac{x^2}{0.517M}$

Whereas x is:

$x=\sqrt{0.517*2.326x10^{-5}}\\\\x=3.47x10^-3$

Which also equals the concentration of hydrogen ions; therefore, the pH at the equivalence point is:

$pH=-log(3.47x10^{-3})\\\\pH=2.46$

Regards!

state the formula for potassium hydroxide and explain, in terms of charges, how you formed the formula

Ganezh [65]

Potassium oxide is an ionic compound. The potassium has a charge of K+ and oxygen has a charge of O2−. We need 2 potassium ions to balance one oxide ion making the formula K2O.

Potassium hydroxide is an ionic compound. The potassium has a charge of K+ and hydroxide has a charge of OH−. We need 1 potassium ion to balance one hydroxide ion making the formula KOH.

K2O+ H2O→KOH

To balance the equation we place a coefficient of 2 in front of the potassium hydroxide.

K2O+H2O→2KOH

I hope this was helpful.
