Answer:

HCN~~Ka=4.9x10^-^1^0

Explanation:

In this case, we have to remember the <u>relationship between the Ka value and the pH</u>. We can use the general reaction for any acid with his Ka value expression:

HA~->~H^+~+~A^-    Ka=\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}

In the Ka expression, we have a<u> proportional relationship</u> between Ka and the concentration of H^+. Therefore, if we have a higher Ka value we will have a smaller pH (lets keep in mind that with a higher

So, if we have to find the higher pH value we need to search the <u>smaller Ka value</u> in this case HCN~~Ka=4.9x10^-^1^0.

I hope helps!

Explain why can two nonmetals bond together, but two metals cannot? A) Metals will only form covalent bonds. B) Nonmetals can sh
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer: C) Non-metals can share pairs of electrons and form covalent bonds

Explanation: The principal reason why it is non-metals that can form covalent bonds is because of their electronegativities. Electronegativity is the tendency of an atom to attract electrons towards itself.

The participating atoms in a covalent bond have to be able to hold the shared electron in place & it is this attraction towards the centre of each participating atom that holds the electrons in place. Metals aren't electronegative, they don't attract electrons towards each other, they'd rather even push the electrons away from themselves (electropositive) to be stable. The closest concept of metals to shared electrons is in metallic bonding, where metals push and donate their valence electrons to an electron cloud which is free to move around the bulk of the metallic structure. But this is nowhere near the type of bonding that exist in covalent bonds.

Gold is currently trading at very high price. Suppose that gold is selling for around $1860/ounce. How
Ugo [173]

Answer:

The answer is "3.81041978"

Explanation:

\to 1 \ OZ= 28.349523125 \ grams\\\\

              =28.349523125\times {1000} \ miligrams\\\\= 28349. 5231  \ miligrams\\

In 1860 = 28349.5231 \ miligrams\\

\to In \$ \ 1 = \frac{28349.5231}{1860} \ \ miligrams\\

             = 15.2416791 \ miligrams

\ In \  1 \ quarter =  \$ \ 0.25

\to \$ \ 0.25 =  15.2416791  \times 0.25 \  miligrams\\

              = 3.81041978

Darina [25.2K]

Answer/Explanation:

quantum of energy is important because the energy of a particle, and also how long it has had that energy, with infinite precision. Quantum, in physics, discrete natural unit, or packet, of energy, charge, angular momentum, or other physical property. the term also applicable to quanta of other forms of electromagnetic energy such as X - rays and gamma rays.
