Answer:

B. Household ammonia.

Explanation:

NH₃ is a base, so the solution always will be basic.

NH₃ takes the proton from the water. In conclusion we have free OH⁻ in medium, that's why the solution is basic.

NH₃ + H₂O → NH₄⁺  +  OH⁻

- HCl + H₂O → H₃O⁺  + Cl⁻

This reaction makes an acid solution, cause the H₃O⁺

- Vinegar is a compound made of acetic acid.

CH₃COOH  + H₂O  ⇄  H₃O⁺  +  CH₃COO⁻

This reaction also makes an acid solution, cause the H₃O⁺

- Pure water makes neutral solution. It is not acid, neither basic.

2H₂O ⇄  H₃O⁺  +  OH⁻

IrinaK [193]

Answer:

During the initial cell operation, each reaction is thermodynamically favorable, but the larger operating potential of the lithium-iodine cell indicates that its cell reaction is more thermodynamically favorable.  ( B )

During the initial cell operation, the oxidation of iodine is  thermodynamically favorable but the oxidation of mercury is not. ( C )

Explanation:

<u>The major Differences between The Zinc mercury cell and Lithium-iodine cell are :</u>

During the initial cell operation, each reaction is thermodynamically favorable, but the larger operating potential of the lithium-iodine cell indicates that its cell reaction is more thermodynamically favorable.   and

During the initial cell operation, the oxidation of iodine is thermodynamically favorable but the oxidation of mercury is not.

Given the relationship below,

Δ G = -nFE

E = emf of cell ,  G = free energy.

This relationship shows that if E is positive the reaction will be thermodynamically favorable also if E is large it will increase the negativity of free energy  also From the question we can see that with the reduction of mercury the value of E is more positive and this shows that Mercury is thermodynamically unfavorable

Enter the chemical formula of a binary molecular compound of hydrogen and a Group 6A element that can reasonably be expected to
Ber [7]

Answer:

H₂Se

Explanation:

A way of estimating the acidity of a weak acid is by analizing the<em> stability of the formed anion</em>. In this case, we should find a Group 6A element that in its anionic forms (HX⁻ and X⁻²) is more stable than HS⁻ and S⁻², thus it would be more acidic in aqueous solution.

The anionic forms of Se are more stable than the forms of S, similarly to how Br⁻ is more stable than Cl⁻.
