How is synthesis and decomposition reaction related to each other???

They are kind of opposite processes. Chemical synthesis is execution of chemical reactions to make products. Like you take two substances, you put them together, they react and you have new a substance. For example. $2Na+{ Cl }_{ 2 }\rightarrow 2NaCl$ here Sodium and Chlorine react to make a new substance which is Sodium Chloride.

Chemical decomposition is process of seperating a substance to different substances. There is a substance by a reaction this substance becomes two substances, Like : XY -> X+Y For example : $2{ H }_{ 2 }O(l)\quad \rightarrow 2{ H }_{ 2 }+{ O }_{ 2 }$

Synthesis (combination) is basically the opposite of decomposition. Synthesis is combining two elements to form one compound, while decomposition breaks down one compound to form to elements. Synthesis: A+B=AB Decomposition: AB= A+B

How do you predict the geometrical shape of NH3 on VSEPR model

Sauron [17]

Answer:

NH3 Ammonia

Explanation:

Ammonia has 4 regions of electron density around the central nitrogen atom (3 bonds and one lone pair). These are arranged in a tetrahedral shape. The resulting molecular shape is trigonal pyramidal with H-N-H angles of 106.7°.

What is the ph of 0.450 m al(no3)3 [ka for al3+(aq) = 1.00x10-5]? express your answer to two decimal places?

White raven [17]

Answer : The pH of the solution is, 2.67

Explanation :

The equilibrium chemical reaction is:

$Al^{3+}+H_2O\rightarrow Al(OH)^{2+}+H^+$

Initial conc. 0.450 0 0

At eqm. (0.450-x) x x

As we are given:

$K_a=1.00\times 10^{-5}$

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

$K_a=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(0.450-x)}$

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

$1.00\times 10^{-5}=\frac{(x)\times (x)}{(0.450-x)}$

$x=0.00212M$

The concentration of $H^+$ = x = 0.00212 M

Now we have to calculate the pH of solution.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=-\log (0.00212)$

$pH=2.67$

Therefore, the pH of the solution is, 2.67

What is the Na+ concentration in each of the following solutions:

iren [92.7K]

Sodium Sulfate = Na2(SO4) meaning there are two ions of Na+ in one mole of Sodium Sulfate the M stands for Molarity, defined as Molarity = (moles of solute)/(Liters of solution), So if the Na2SO4 solution is 3.65M that means one Liter of has 3.65 moles of Na2SO4, the stoichiometry of Na2SO4 shows that there would be two Na+ ions in solution for every one Na2SO4.

Therefore if 3.65 moles of Na2SO4 was to dissolve, it would produce 7.3 moles of Na+, and since this is still a theoretical solution, we can assume 1 L of solution.

Finally we find [Na+] = 2*3.65 = 7.3M

Use the same logic for parts b and c

Design an invitation you could use to calculate the density of a penny

Nataliya [291]

Firstly, the density of any substance is represented by the mass (amount of matter) as divided by the volume(amount of space). According to external websites, the mass of a penny is 2.5 grams.However, the volume of a penny is .35cm to the power of 3 (due to the thickness of the penny being extremely minimal.Thus the amount of density is extremely little). Therefore, the density of a penny is 0.875 g/cm cubed (dimensional analysis).As for an invention that could be used, that is possible with the usage of a series of measurements that can both calculate mass and volume and directly allocate that to attain density
