How many acidic H+ ion is given by H3BO3 in aqueous solution?? ...?

1 answer:

7 0

Boric acid, H3BO3, in aqueous solution would only give out one H+ ion. As it is also produce OH ion and by hydrolysis it produces one proton. All the boron compounds (BX3) are having only 6 valence electrons in it and should follow the octet rule by taking another electron.

B(OH)3 + 2 H2O → B(OH)4− + H3O

[04.02]What coefficients must be added to balance the following equation?

vesna_86 [32]

Methink this is a neutralization reaction where an acid reacts with a base to form salt and water; but if we must balance the equation, we need to know what the product would be? So our base LiOH reacts with our acid Tetraoxosulphate (VI) H2SO4. The reaction produces salt and water as evidence. LiOH + H2SO4 gives Li2SO4 and H20. We need to make sure that the total atoms on the LHS and RHS balanced. So adding two moles of LiOH, we have 2LiOH + H2SO4 produces LiSO4 + H20. The eqn isn't balanced yet as there's 2 moles of deficit H2 atoms on the RHS, So our final reaction we have 2LiOH + H2SO4 gives Li2SO4 + 2H2O. Hence our answer is C

A sample of an uranium compound is found to be losing mass gradually. Explain what is happening to the sample.

yan [13]

Answer:

The uranium in the sample of the compound is radioactive

Explanation:

Some atoms can split on their own. Some split when bombarded by energetic particles. Such atoms are said to be radioactive.

Radioactivity is borne out of the drive of an atom to reach stabillity. Every atom have a specific neutron/proton ratio which ensures stability of the nucleus. A nucleus with a stability ratio different from that which makes it stable will become unstable and split into one or more other nuclei with emissons of energetic particles.

Note: neutrons and protons dictates the mass of an atom. They are located in the nucleus which is the site for nuclear radioactive reactions.

Explain why you get a basic solution when you dissolve NaF in water.

SashulF [63]

Answer:

That's because in water NaF will dissolve to produce Na+,the conjugate base of a strong acid which will not react with water.however F- will behave like a bronsted base, and accept a proton from water.this is called hydrolysis reaction, because a molecule of water is broken up.

a conjugate base is what I leftover after an acid loses a hydrogen ion.

I hope this helps
