Answer:

Moving Across a Period

Moving from left to right across a period, the atomic radius decreases. The nucleus of the atom gains protons moving from left to right, increasing the positive charge of the nucleus and increasing the attractive force of the nucleus upon the electrons

How many grams of aluminum chloride must decompose to produce 78.3 milliliters of aluminum metal, if the density of aluminum is

Vilka [71]

1mol aluminium chloride gives 1mol aluminium and 3mol chloride
density equals mass divided by volume
d=m/v
m=v*d
=78.3*2.7
=211.41grams

13. How many electrons are transferred in the following reaction? (The reaction is unbalanced.) Fe(s) + I'(aq) 12(s) + Fe3+(aq)

Nat2105 [25]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 6

Explanation :

Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is a reaction in which oxidation and reduction reaction occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this oxidation state increases.

Reduction reaction : It is the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this oxidation state decreases.

The given unbalanced chemical reaction is,

$Fe(s)+I^-(aq)\rightarrow I_2(s)+Fe^{3+}(aq)$

Half reactions of oxidation and reduction are :

Oxidation : $Fe(s)\rightarrow Fe^{3+}+3e^-$ ......(1)

Reduction : $2I^-(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow I_2$ .......(2)

In order to balance the electrons, we multiply equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, we get:

Oxidation : $2Fe(s)\rightarrow 2Fe^{3+}+6e^-$ ......(1)

Reduction : $6I^-(aq)+6e^-\rightarrow 3I_2$ .......(2)

The overall balanced chemical reaction will be:

$2Fe(s)+6I^-(aq)\rightarrow 3I_2(s)+2Fe^{3+}(aq)$

From this reaction we conclude that the electrons are getting transferred from iron to iodine and the number of electrons transferred are 6 electrons.

Hence, the correct option is, (C) 6

The pH of a 0.65M solution of hydrofluoric acid HF is measured to be 1.68. Calculate the acid dissociation constant Ka of hydrof

sergey [27]

Answer:

Kₐ = 6.7 x 10⁻⁴

Explanation:

First lets write the equilibrium expression, Ka , for the dissociation of hydrofluoric acid:

HF + H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + F⁻

Kₐ = [ H₃O⁺ ] [ F⁻ ] /[ [ HF ]

Since we are given the pH we can calculate the [ H₃O⁺ ] ( pH = - log [ H₃O⁺ ] , and because the acid dissociates into a 1: 1 relation , we will also have [F⁻ ]. The [ HF ] is given in the question so we have all the information that is needed to compute Kₐ.

pH = -log [ H₃O⁺ ]

1.68 = - log [ H₃O⁺ ]

Taking antilog to both sides of this equation:

10^-1.68 = [ H₃O⁺ ] ⇒ 2.1 X 10⁻² M= [ H₃O⁺ ]

[ F⁻ ] = 2.1 X 10⁻² M

Solving for Kₐ :

Kₐ = ( 2.1 X 10⁻² ) x ( 2.1 X 10⁻² ) / 0.65 = 6.7 x 10⁻⁴

(Rounded to two significant figures, the powers of 10 have infinite precision )
