Acids are ionic compounds that break apart in water to form a hydrogen ion. The strength of an acid is based on the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution. The more hydrogen ions, the stronger the acid. Bases are ionic compounds that break apart in water to form negatively charged hydroxide ions. The strength of the base is based on the concentration of hydroxide ions. 
Hence, letter C is the correct answer.

A mixture contains 25 g of cyclohexane (C6H12) and 44 g of 2-methylpentane (C6H14). The mixture of liquids is at 35 oC . At this
Greeley [361]

Answer:

The mol fraction of cyclohexane in the liquid phase is 0.368

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of cyclohexane = 25.0 grams

Mass of 2-methylpentane = 44.0 grams

Temperature = 35.0 °C

The pressure of cyclohexane = 150 torr

The pressure of 2-methylpentane = 313 torr

The pressure we only need for the mole fraction in gas phase.

Step 2: Calculate moles of cyclohexane

Moles cyclohexane = mass cyclohexane / molar mass

Moles cyclohexane = 25.0 g / 84 g/mol = 0.298 mol of cyclohexane

Step 3: Calculate moles of 2-methylpentane

Moles = 44.0 grams / 86 g/mol = 0.512 mol of 2-methylpentane

Step 4: Calculate mole fraction of cyclohexane in the liquid phase

Mole fraction of C6H12:

0.298 / (0.298 + 0.512) = 0.368

The mol fraction of cyclohexane in the liquid phase is 0.368

Hi, someone knows how to balance the following equation, and if you can thank you if you can explain how that is done:
kari74 [83]
To begin with, the equation given is not correct.
Correct equation is : CaCO3 + HCl ---> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
It's CaCl2 not CaCl because Ca has a valency of 2 

    LHS                          RHS
CaCO3 + HCl ---> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
First of all, to balance the equation you must look at the number of atoms on each side of the equation. 
we have 2 H on the RHS and 1 H on the LHS. So, we put a 2 on the LHS

CaCO3 + 2HCl ---> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
Check for the LHS: 1 Ca, 1 C, 3 O, 2 H & 2 Cl on the LHS
Now check for the RHS: 1 Ca, 2 Cl, 2 H, 1 C & 3 O

Hope it helped!
