Instead of 6 M NaOH being added to the solution, 6 M HCl is added. How will this affect the test for the presence of ammonium io

Answer:

Ammonia gas(an alkaline gas with characteristics of choking or irritating smell) is not liberated when 6mole of HCl is added to the solution instead of 6mole of NaOH, to test for the presence of ammonium ion in the solution

Explanation:

As expected, when testing for ammonium ion in a solution (precisely ammonium salt solution), Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) is required as the test reagent.

When NaOH is added to the solution, A gas with characteristics of choking or irritating smell is liberated.

This gas turn red litmus paper blue.

This liberated gas is an alkaline gas, which is confirmed as an ammonia gas(NH3).

If HCl is added instead of NaOH, the ammonia gas will not be liberated, which indicates that the test reagent used is wrong.

The air above earth’s surface is at different temperatures. What is responsible for this difference in temperature?
tino4ka555 [31]

The Mesosphere, like the troposphere layer, has a decrease in temperature with altitude because of the decreases in the density of the air molecules. Thermosphere: As the altitude increases, the air temperature increases.

It has been found by mass spectrometric analysis that in nature, the relative abundances of the various isotopic atoms of silico
pochemuha

Answer:

This means that the isotope of silicon with a mass number of 28 is by far the most common of these three isotopes.

Explanation:

The abundance of Si-28 is 92.23%. Si-29 is 4.68% and Si-30 is 3.09%.

Because most Si atoms have a mass of 28 amu, the average mass of all silicon atoms is very close to 28.

Here is a video which summarizes how to calculate average atomic mass from data about mass and relative abundance.

Construct an argument for or against the immediate introduction of fuel-cell cars. Include likely points of objection from those
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Explanation:

Fuel Cell Cars are the vehicles built to run on hydrogen gas rather than running on the hydrocarbon.

Hydrocarbons are the organic compounds which are derived mostly from the crude oil. They are usually composed of Hydrogen and Carbon.

Fuel cell cars are much more better than the regular vehicles running on hydrocarbon in so many ways especially environmentally.

Listed below are some of the advantages of fuel cell cars over the regular vehicles

Fuel cells have a higher efficiency than diesel or gas engines.

Most fuel cells operate silently, compared to internal combustion engines. They are therefore ideally suited for use within buildings such as hospitals.

Fuel cells can eliminate pollution caused by burning fossil fuels; for hydrogen fuelled fuel cells, the only by-product at point of use is water.

If the hydrogen comes from the electrolysis of water driven by renewable energy, then using fuel cells eliminates greenhouse gases over the whole cycle.

Fuel cells do not need conventional fuels such as oil or gas and can therefore reduce economic dependence on oil producing countries, creating greater energy security for the user nation.

Since hydrogen can be produced anywhere where there is water and a source of power, generation of fuel can be distributed and does not have to be grid-dependent.

The use of stationary fuel cells to generate power at the point of use allows for a decentralised power grid that is potentially more stable.
