7 0

A dissolving liquid composed of polar molecules is a polar solvent.

The distinction of polar and non-polar liquids is important because the like dissolves like rule. This rule states that the solubility is greater when the polarity of the liquid is similar to the polarity of the solute.

So, to dissolve polar compounds (e.g. ionic compounds) you should use polar solvents (e.g. water).

Answer: polar solvent

G determine the concentration of an hbr solution if a 45.00 ml aliquot of the solution yields 0.6485 g agbr when added to a solu

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

The molecular weight of silver bromide (AgBr) is 187.77 g/mole. The presence of the ions in solution can be shown as- AgBr (insoluble) ⇄ $Ag^{+}$ + $Br^{-1}$ .

45.00 mL of the aliquot contains 0.6485 g of AgBr. Thus 1000 mL of the aliquot contains $\frac{0.6485}{45}$ ×1000 = 14.411 gm-mole. Thus the solubility product $K_{sp}$ of AgBr = [ $Ag^{+}$ ]× $Br^{-}$ .

Or, 5.0× $10^{-13}$ = $S^{2}$ (the given value of solubility product of AgBr is 5.0× $10^{-13}$ and the charge of the both ions are same).

Thus S = (5.00× $10^{-13}$ ) $^{1/2}$ = 7.071× $10^{-7}$ g/mL.

Thus the concentration of Br $^{-1}$ or HBr is 7.071× $10^{-7}$ g/mL.

A solution has a pH of 11.8. What is the pOH?

amid [387]

Answer:

pOH is 2.2

Explanation:

The pH scale goes from 0 to 14. As such, the pH and the pOH add up to 14. Subtract your pH from 14 to get your answer.

14 - 11.8 = 2.2

Which of the following are characteristics of vertebrates?

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:
All of the above

Explanation:
Vertebrates are a class of creatures falling under kingdom "Animalia" that are characterized by the presence of an internal skeleton composed of bones.

Vertebrates are characterized by the following:
1- presence of internal skeleton
2- developed brain
3- the presence of an advanced nervous system connected to the brain
4- presence of muscles that allow movement
5- protective skin
6- circulation of blood in the bodies in the vessels

Comparing the mentioned characteristics with the options given, we will find that the most suitable answer is: "all of the above".

Hope this helps :)

In the iodoform test why is it necessary to add sodium hypochlorite

Kobotan [32]

Sodium hypochlorite is used in iodoform test for the oxidation of alcohol to aldehyde as shown in the image attached:

Here sodium hypochlorite is formed by the reaction of NaOH with I2 that further oxides alcohols to aldehydes.
