What volume (in L) of a 1.25 M
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

V1= 0.305L

Explanation:

To find the initial volume of 1.25M potassium fluoride needed to make tge dilution specified in the question, we can use: C1 × V1 = C2 × V2

Since the question wants the volume in litres, convert 455 mL to L

455/ 1000

= 0.455 L

Now make the substitution

1.25 × V1 = 0.838 × 0.455

Rearrange to make V1 the subject

V1=

\frac{0.838 \times 0.455}{1.25 }  = 0.305

Write the balanced NET IONIC equation for the reaction that occurs when ammonium nitrate and potassium hydroxide are combined. N
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Net Ionic equation

NH₄⁺ + OH⁻ → NH₃ + H₂O

Option B is correct.

Weak Acid Strong Base

Check Explanation for the extent of the reaction.

Explanation:

Ammonium nitrate = NH₄NO₃

Potassium Hydroxide = KOH

Ammonium salts combine with alkalis to liberate NH₃ and form water.

The two reactants combine to give

NH₄NO₃ + KOH → KNO₃ + NH₃ + H₂O

In ionic form,

- NH₄NO₃ exists as NH₄⁺ and NO₃⁻

- KOH exists as K⁺ and OH⁻

- KNO₃ as K⁺ and NO₃⁻

And NH₃ and H₂O stay as they are, as per covalent compounds.

So, we have

NH₄⁺ + NO₃⁻ + K⁺ + OH⁻ → K⁺ + NO₃⁻ + NH₃ + H₂O

Eliminating the ions that exist on both sides, we have the net ionic equation to be

NH₄⁺ + OH⁻ → NH₃ + H₂O

which shows that this reaction is essentially a neutralization reaction in which the Bronsted Lowry acid, NH₄⁺, loses its proton to the base, OH⁻ and gives conjugate base, NH₃ and conjugate acid, H₂O.

This reaction is classified as a Weak acid versus Strong Base reaction as NH₄⁺ is from a Weak acid and OH⁻ is from a strong base.

Since this reaction is between a Weak base and a strong acid, the ionization isn't expected to be 100%, Hence, the extent of this reaction will be any option that is not 100%, a couple pieces of information might be required for the correct estimate, but above 50% seems correct.

Hope this Helps!!!

When the glucose solution described in part A is connected to an unknown solution via a semipermeable membrane, the unknown solu
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The unknown solution had the higher concentration.

Explanation:

When two solutions are separated by a semi-permeable membrane, depending on the concentration gradient between the two solutions, there is a tendency for water molecules to move across the semi-permeable in order to establish an equilibrium concentration between the two solutions. This movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane in response to a concentration gradient is known as osmosis. In osmosis, water molecules moves from a region of lower solute concentration or higher water molecules concentration to a region of higher solute concentration or lower water molecules concentration until equilibrium concentration is attained.

Based on the observation that when the glucose solution described in part A is connected to an unknown solution via a semipermeable membrane, the unknown solution level rises, it means that water molecules have passed from the glucose solution through the semipermeable membrane into the unknown solution. Therefore, the solution has a higher solute concentration than the glucose solution.
