Answer:
Hg
Explanation:
We are given information about the unknown element, and using each characteristic, we can narrow down the possible elements until we have just one possibility left.
Conducts electricity: This means that the element has to be a metal, or a semi-metal, because non-metals cannot conduct electricity.
Forming chloride and oxide ions: When it is seen that it forms chloride and oxide ions in the form of XCl₂ and XO, it can be seen that this element has an ionic charge of +2. This narrows it down to the elements in <u>Group 2.</u>
Liquid at room temperature: This is tricky, because we realize that there are no elements in group 2 that are liquid at room temperature. So hence we can look at groups 3 to 12, and see if there are any liquid metals with an ionic charge of +2.
Taking all this information into account, we can see that the only element it can be is mercury (Hg).
HNO3 is a strong acid while HBrO is weak acid.
Therefore we ignore the presence of the weak acid such that we consider the pH of the strong acid.
Therefore; since pH= - log (H+)
Hence pH= -log 0.18
= 0.745
Thus the pH of the mixture is 0.745
I think Elements chemical property depends upon the bond energy etc
Answer:
4.50 L
Explanation:
First we <u>calculate how many moles are there in 3.84 L of a 8.50 mol/L solution</u>:
- 3.84 L * 8.50 mol/L = 32.64 mol
Now, keeping in mind that
- Concentration = Mol / Volume
we can calculate the volume of a 7.25 mol/L solution that would contain 32.64 moles:
- Volume = Mol / Concentration
- Volume = 32.64 mol ÷ 7.25 mol/L
So we could take 4.50 L of the 7.25 mol/L solution and evaporate the solvent until only 3.84 L remain.
