To solve this problem, we must assume ideal gas behaviour so that we can use Graham’s law:

vA / vB = sqrt (MW_B / MW_A)

where,

<span>vA = speed of diffusion of A  (HBR)</span>

vB = speed of diffusion of B (unknown)

MW_B = molecular weight of B (unkown)

MW_A = molar weight of HBr = 80.91 amu

 

We know from the given that:

vA / vB = 1 / 1.49

 

So,

1/1.49 = sqrt (MW_B / 80.91)

MW_B = 36.44 g/mol

 

Since this unknown is also hydrogen halide, therefore this must be in the form of HX.

HX = 36.44 g/mol , therefore:

x = 35.44 g/mol

 

From the Periodic Table, Chlorine (Cl) has a molar mass of 35.44 g/mol. Therefore the hydrogen halide is:

HCl

Why the measured pressure of a gas under conditions that are very close to those that would result in condensation will be lower
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Inter-molecular forces and molecular volumes are the chief reasons for lower measured pressure

Explanation:

The kinetic theory assumes that gas particles occupy a negligible fraction of the total volume of the gas. It also assumes that the force of attraction between gas molecules is zero.

However, during high pressure, the volume of the gas particles are not negligible compare to the total gas volume and as such the volume of a real gas under such condition is higher than the Ideal gas. Vander-waal attempted to modify the ideal gas equation by subtracting the excess volume from the ideal equation. The increased volume is the reason the measured pressure of a real gas is  less than an ideal gas

On the other hand,  close to condensation, the other  assumption of negligible forces of attraction becomes invalid. As inter-molecular distances decrease, inter-molecular forces increase reducing the bombardment of the wall of the container due to restricted particle movement and lower measured gas pressure.

Unlike an acid, an aqueous solution of a base
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

D) contains more OH– ions than H+ ions

Explanation:

THESE ARE THE OPTIONS FOR THE QUESTION

A) causes some indicators to change color B) conducts electricity C) contains more H+ ions than OH– ions D) contains more OH– ions than H+ ions

Base can be regarded as substance which can dissociates in water then form hydroxide ions (OH–) .

Bases can be regarded as compounds which break into hydroxide ions I.e (OH-) with more other compounds if put in an aqueous solution. Hence it contains more OH– ions
