I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. Salting is used as one of the methods of preserving fish because s<span>alting of fish leads to diffusion of water out of the fish, causing removal of water, making the fish drier which does not allow bacteria to grow.</span>

What is the molality of a solution in which 0.42 moles aluminum chloride has been dissolved in 4200 water ?
madreJ [45]

Answer:

0.1 M

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Molarity refers to the concentration of a solution in moles per liter.
  • It is calculated by dividing the number of moles of solute by the volume of solvent;
  • Molarity = Moles of the solute ÷ Volume of the solvent

<u>In this case, we are given;</u>

  • Number of moles of the solute, NH₄Cl as 0.42 moles
  • Volume of the solvent, water as 4200 mL or 4.2 L

Therefore;

Molarity = 0.42 moles ÷ 4.2 L

            = 0.1 mol/L or 0.1 M

Thus, the molarity of the solution will be 0.1 M

Which of the following substances heats the fastest?
Aneli [31]

Answer:

Zinc

Explanation:

The specific heat capacity can be described as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degrees Celsius. It is represented by C or S. The greater the carrying capacity of a substance, the more will be the heat required for that substance.

As we can see in the information given in the question, the specific heat capacity of zinc is the lowest as compared to steel, water and aluminium. Hence, zinc is the correct option.

Define the following: Bronsted-Lowry acid - Lewis acid- Strong acid - (5 points) Problem 6: Consider the following acid base rea
Allushta [10]

Answer: Yes, HCl is a strong acid.

acid = HCl , conjugate base = Cl^- , base = H_2O, conjugate acid = H_3O^+

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

Yes HCl is a strong acid as it completely dissociates in water to give H^+ ions.

HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^-

For the given chemical equation:

HCl+H_2O\rightarrow H_3O^-+Cl^-

Here, HCl is loosing a proton, thus it is considered as an acid and after losing a proton, it forms Cl^- which is a conjugate base.

And, H_2O is gaining a proton, thus it is considered as a base and after gaining a proton, it forms H_3O^+ which is a conjugate acid.

Thus acid =  HCl

conjugate base = Cl^-

base = H_2O

conjugate acid = H_3O^+.
