Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

According to Bronsted-Lowry an acid is defined as the specie which is able to donate hydrogen ions when dissolved in water.

For example, HCl \rightarrow H^{+} + Cl^{-}

On the other hand, bases are the species which are able to donate hydroxide ions when dissolved in water.

For example, NaOH \rightarrow Na^{+} + OH^{-}

Thus, we can conclude that a definition of an acid is that it donates H ions when dissolved in water.

The _______ of a compound is the amount change in enthalpy involved in the synthesis of 1 mole of a compound from its elements,
Elis [28]
I believe the correct answer would be the standard heat of formation. The keyword in the statement would be synthesis and standard state. Synthesis would always mean formation of something and standard states would mean at a temperature of 25 C and 1 atm pressure.

STATES THAT FOR AN ATOM IN THE GROUND STATE, THE NUMBER OF UNPAIRED ELECTRONS IS THE MAXIMUM POSSIBLE AND THESE UNPAIRED ELECTRO
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

Hund's rule

Explanation:

Hund's rule  states that for an atom in the ground state, the number of unpaired electrons is the maximum possible and these unpaired electrons have the same spin.

I will clearly illustrate this using the ground state of the nitrogen atom. Nitrogen atom contains seven electrons. Its electronic configuration is; 1s2 2s2 2px1 2py1 2pz1.

Notice that the number of unpaired electrons in this configuration is maximum and they are all expected to possess the same spin in accordance with Hund's rule .

What change in volume results if 50 mL of gas is cooled from 30 C to 4 C
11111nata11111 [884]

The relation between the volume of the gas and the temperature is established by Charles's law. With a decrease in the temperature, the volume decreases by 45.7 mL. Thus, option c is correct.

<h3>What is Charle's law?</h3>

Charle's law states the direct relation present between the temperature and the volume of the gas. The law is given as:

V₁ ÷ T₁ = V₂ ÷ T₂

Given,

V₁ = 50 mL

T₁ = 303.15 K

T₂ = 277.15 K

Substituting the value the final volume is calculated as:

50 ÷ 303.15 = V₂ ÷ 277.15

V₂ = (50 × 277.15) ÷ 303.15

= 45.71 mL

Therefore, option c. 45.7 mL is the final volume.

Calculate the mass of Cr(ClO2)2 that contains 5.57 × 10<br> ^22 chlorine atoms.
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Your strategy here will be to

use the chemical formula of carbon dioxide to find the number of molecules of

CO

2

that would contain that many atoms of oxygen

use Avogadro's constant to convert the number of molecules to moles of carbon dioxide

use the molar mass of carbon dioxide to convert the moles to grams

So, you know that one molecule of carbon dioxide contains

one atom of carbon,

1

×

C

two atoms of oxygen,

2

×

O

This means that the given number of atoms of oxygen would correspond to

4.8

10

22

atoms O

⋅

1 molecule CO

=

2.4

Now, one mole of any molecular substance contains exactly

6.022

10

22

molecules of that substance -- this is known as Avogadro's constant.

In your case, the sample of carbon dioxide molecules contains

2.4

2

⋅

1 mole CO

2

6.022

⋅

=

0.03985 moles CO

2

Finally, carbon dioxide has a molar mass of

44.01 g mol
