For resonance forms of a molecule or ion, ________.

1 answer:

6 0

For resonance forms of a molecule or ion, the observed structure is an average of the resonance forms. Sometimes it also depends on how the ion or molecule interact with neighboring molecule or ion. In physics, resonance is described as when a vibrating system or external force drives another system to oscillate with greater amplitude at a specific preferential frequency. It is not that one structure always corresponds to the observed structure because they will not exist if it is drawn. It is not the same atoms that do not need to be bonded to each other of the resonance structure because it is describing the migration of the atoms not the species itself.

An unknown solution has a pH of 7.2. Which of these chemicals is likely to cause the greatest decrease in the pH of the solution

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

HNO₃.

Explanation:

It is known that acids decrease the pH of the solution, while bases increase the pH of the solution.

So, HF and HNO₃ decrease the pH of the solution as they produce H⁺ in the solution.

While, KOH and NH₃ increase the pH of the solution as they produce OH⁻ in the solution.

HNO₃ will decrease the pH of the solution greater than HF.

Because HNO₃ is strong acid that decomposes completely to produce H⁺ more than the same concentration of HF that is a weak acid which does not decomposed completely to produce H⁺.

Which of the following would have the largest pKa?

garri49 [273]

Answer:

CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 would have the largest pKa

Explanation:

To answer this question we must know Kb of CH3CH2NH2 is 5.6x10⁻⁴, and for C6H5NH2 is 4.0x10⁻¹⁰. And the CH3CH2NH3+ and C6H5NH3+ are related with these substances because are their conjugate base. That means:

pKa of CH3CH2NH3+ = CH3CH2NH2; C6H5NH3+ = C6H5NH2

Also, Kw / Kb = Ka

Thus:

pKa of CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 is:

Kw / kb = Ka = 1.79x10⁻¹¹

-log Ka = pKa

pKa = 10.75

pKa of C6H5NH3+/ C6H5NH2 is:

Kw / kb = Ka = 2.5x10⁻⁵

-log Ka = pKa

pKa = 4.6

That means CH3CH2NH3+/CH3CH2NH2 would have the largest pKa

A 5.00 L sample of helium expands to 12.0 L at which point the

mina [271]

Answer:

1.73 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of helium = 5.00 L

Final volume of helium = 12.0 L

Final pressure = 0.720 atm

Initial pressure = ?

Solution:

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ × 5.00 L = 0.720 atm × 12.0 L

P₁ = 8.64 atm. L/5 L

P₁ = 1.73 atm

How far is my house if I travel 1 mi/min and it takes me 23 minutes to go home

Musya8 [376]

Answer: The answer would be 23 miles

Explanation: If you are traveling 1mi/min for 23 mins you would add 1, 23 times because it is 1 mile PER minute. Therefore it would be 23 miles.

What is the volume, in liters, of 6.8 mol of Kr gas at STP?

Virty [35]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf D. \ 152 \ L}}$

Explanation:

Any gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP) has a volume of 22.4 liters per mole or 22.4 L/mol. We can create a proportion with this value.

$\frac {22.4 \ L \ Kr}{1 \ mol \ Kr}$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 6.8 moles of krypton.

$6.8 \ mol \ Kr *\frac {22.4 \ L \ Kr}{1 \ mol \ Kr}$

The units of moles of krypton will cancel.

$6.8 *\frac {22.4 \ L \ Kr}{1 }$

The denominator of 1 can be ignored, so this becomes a simple multiplication problem.

$68 * 22.4 \ L \ Kr$

$152.32 \ L \ Kr$

If we round to the nearest whole number, the 3 in the tenths place tells us to leave the 2 in the ones place.

$152 \ L \ Kr$

6.8 moles of krypton gas at standard temperature and pressure is equal to 152 liters.
