Is the interaction between an ammonia ligand and a metal cation a lewis acid-base interaction?

Chemistry

snow_lady [41]3 years ago

Answer: Yes interaction between an ammonia ligand and a metal cation is a lewis acid-base interaction

Explanation:

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

As metal cation is short of electrons to complete its octet, thus it can easily accept an electron pair from ammonia which can easily donate its lone pair of electron and thus acts as lewis base.

M^{n+}+NH_3\rightarrow M(NH_3)_n

Thus interaction between an ammonia ligand and a metal cation is a lewis acid-base interaction

The density of a 0.75M NaOH solution is 1.1g/ml. Calculate the mass percent of NaOH in the solution
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

2.73%

Explanation:

Molarity of NaOH = 0.75 M

Density of solution = 1.1 g/mL

Mass percent of NaOH = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of NaOH = 0.75 mol    from 0.75 mol/L

Mass of NaOH = number of moles × molar mass

Mass of NaOH = 0.75 mol × 40 g/mol

Mass of NaOH =  30 g

Mass of solution:

d = m/v

1.1 g/ mL = m/ 1000 mL

m = 1100 g

Percentage of NaOH:

% NaOH = mass of solute / mass of solution × 100

% NaOH =  30 g/ 1100 g × 100

% NaOH = 2.73%

If an ice cube melts at 0oC but water also freezes at 0oC, what is the difference between melting and freezing in terms of (a) t
zalisa [80]
The energy involved in melting in freezing is heat, At 0 degrees Celsius ice is at an equilibrium where the heat energy absorbed during melting (endothermic) and heat energy dispersed during freezing (exothermic). When ice melts its absorbs heat energy to change states, when water freezes to ice it dispersed heat energy so that the particles can move slow enough to be almost frozen, but still very small vibrations throughout the ice. Particles in the frozen state are packed tightly and help together by a crystal lattice and IMF's, liquid is free flowing with free floating particles that can move freely from one another particle.

1. Consider the following: h2so4 2 naoh → na2so4 2 h2o if a 24. 0 ml sample of h2so4 (aq) was neutralized by 20. 0 ml of 0. 125
jasenka [17]

The molarity of the acid sample H₂SO₄ is 0.052M .

<h3>What is Molarity ?</h3>

Molarity (M) is the amount of a substance in a certain volume of solution.

Molarity is defined as the moles of a solute per liters of a solution.

Molarity is also known as the molar concentration of a solution

Now to determine the molarity of the acid sample

V( H₂SO₄) = 24.0 mL in liters = 24.0 / 1000 = 0.024 L

M(H₂SO₄) = ?

V(NaOH) = 20.0 mL = 20.0 / 1000 = 0.02 L

M(NaOH) = 0.125 M

Number of moles NaOH :

n = M x V

n = 0.125 x  0.02

n = 0.0025 moles of NaOH

H₂SO₄(aq) + 2 NaOH(aq) = Na₂SO₄(aq) + 2 H₂O(l)

1 mole H₂SO₄ ---------- 2 mole NaOH

? mole H₂SO₄ ---------- 0.0025 moles NaOH

moles = 0.0025 * 1 / 2

= 0.00125 moles of H₂SO₄

M(H₂SO₄) = n / V

M = 0.00125 /  0.024

= 0.052 M

Therefore the molarity of the acid sample H₂SO₄ is 0.052M .

Help please
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

it's the regolith

hope this helps you

C Horizon - Also called regolith: the layer beneath the B Horizon and above the R Horizon. It consists of slightly broken-up bedrock. Plant roots do not penetrate into this layer; very little organic material is found in this layer. R Horizon - The unweathered rock (bedrock) layer that is beneath all the other layers.
