THE COMPLETE QUESTION IS:

Determine whether each cation is acidic or pH-neutral. For those cations that are acidic, write an equation that shows how the cation acts as an acid . a. NH+4 b. Na+ c. Co3+ d. CH2NH+3

Answer:

<em>a. Acidic</em>

<em>b. neutral</em>

<em>c. Acidic</em>

<em>d. Acidic</em>

Explanation:

a. NH4+ + H2O <==> NH3 + H3O+ (NH4+ is a conjugate acid of a weak base. Therefore it is acidic)

b. Neutral. Na+ is a cation of a strong base. Therefore it's pH is neutral.

c. Co(H2O)6³+ + H2O <==>CoH2O5(OH)²+ + H3O+

(Therefore Co+ is a weak acid since hydronium ion is formed.)

d. CH2NH3+ is a conjugate acid of a weak base. Therefore it is acidic.

Triss [41]

Answer:

1.0 × 10⁻⁹ M.

Explanation:

<em>∵ [H₃O⁺][OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴.</em>

[H₃O⁺] = 1.0 x 10⁻⁵ M.

<em>∴ [OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴/[H₃O⁺]</em> = 10⁻¹⁴/(1.0 x 10⁻⁵ M) = <em>1.0 × 10⁻⁹ M.</em>

Which mineral leaves a green-black powder when rubbed against an unglazed porcelain plate
solong [7]

<u>Answer:</u>

Pyrite leaves behind a green-black streak when it is rubbed against an unglazed porcelain plate as a part of the streak test process.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Different minerals produce different coloured streaks when rubbed against a white ceramic or porcelain streak plate. This streak test is done to identify the mineral and distinguish the same from other minerals that look similar in colour and texture.

It must be ensured that the test is done on clean and fresh specimens of the mineral and that there must be no contaminants. Pyrite specimens are usually brass-yellow colour but it leaves a green-black streak when the streak test is done.

Which element in group 2 (Alkaline Earth Metals) is the most reactive?
never [62]

Answer:

the reactivity of alkaline earth metals increases from top to the bottom of the group, that's because the atoms get bigger from the top to the bottom so the valence electrons are farther from the nucleus.
