Answer:
sp³
Explanation:
Number of hybrid orbitals = ( V + S - C + A ) / 2
Where
H is the number of hybrid orbitals
V is the valence electrons of the central atom = 5
S is the number of single valency atoms = 4
C is the number of cations = 1
A is the number of anions = 0
For PCl₄⁺
Applying the values, we get:
H = ( 5+4-1+0) / 2
= 4
<u>This corresponds to sp³ hybridization.</u>
Answer:
pH = 12.33
Explanation:
Lets call HA = butanoic acid and A⁻ butanoic acid and its conjugate base butanoate respectively.
The titration reaction is
HA + KOH ---------------------------- A⁻ + H₂O + K⁺
number of moles of HA : 118.3 ml/1000ml/L x 0.3500 mol/L = 0.041 mol HA
number of moles of OH : 115.4 mL/1000ml/L x 0.400 mol/L = 0.046 mol A⁻
therefore the weak acid will be completely consumed and what we have is the unreacted strong base KOH which will drive the pH of the solution since the contribution of the conjugate base is negligible.
n unreacted KOH = 0.046 - 0.041 = 0.005 mol KOH
pOH = - log (KOH)
M KOH = 0.005 mol / (0.118.3 +0.1154)L = 0.0021 M
pOH = - log (0.0021) = 1.66
pH = 14 - 1.96 = 12.33
Note: It is a mistake to ask for the pH of the <u>acid solutio</u>n since as the above calculation shows we have a basic solution the moment all the acid has been consumed.
The answer is D. Liquid to Solid
Explanation:
An equation is said to be balanced when the number of atoms on both reactant and product side are equal in number.
Whereas an equation where electrolytes in an aqueous solution are represented as dissociated ions is known as an ionic equation.
For example, can be represented in ionic form as follows.
Now, cancelling the common ions present on both sides of the equation. The resulting, ionic equation will be as follows.
