A substance that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction is called a catalyst. As a catalyst speeds up the reaction, as an enzyme does. <span />

Find the pH of HCl with a concentration of 0.00006M<br> Round to the nearest whole number

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

4.22

Explanation:

pH stands for potential hydrogen. The letter “p” denotes potential and the letter “H” denotes hydrogen.

pH helps to find the acidity or alkalinity of an aqueous solution.

The number of hydrogen ions (protons) present in a solution is determined by the pH scale.

A pH greater than 7 makes the water more alkaline and a pH less than 7 makes the water more acidic.

$pH=-\log [H^+]=-\log [0.00006]=4.22$

A water bottle has a mass of 14.0g. Given a density of 1.38g/cm^3, what is the volume of the plastic used to make the water bott

Kipish [7]

Answer:

$\boxed{\sf Volume \ of \ plastic \ used = 10.14 \ cm^3}$

Given:

Mass = 14.0 g

Density ( $\rho$ ) = 1.38 g/cm³

To Find:

Volume (V)of the plastic used to make water bottle

Explanation:

Formula:

$\boxed{ \bold{Density \ (\rho) = \frac{Mass \ (m)}{Volume \ (V)}}}$

Substituting value of m & density in the formula:

$\sf \implies 1.38 = \frac{14.0}{V} \\ \\ \sf \implies V = \frac{14.0}{1.38} \\ \\ \sf \implies V = 10.14 \ cm^3$

$\therefore$

Volume of the plastic used to make water bottle = 10.14 cm³

DIA [1.3K]

Answer: A more electronegative atom will have more attraction to the electrons in a chemical bond.

Explanation:

An atom that is able to attract electrons or shared pair of electrons more towards itself is called an electronegative atom.

For example, fluorine is the most electronegative atom.

Due to its high electronegativity it is able to attract an electropositive atom like H towards itself. As a result, both fluorine and hydrogen will acquire stability by sharing of electrons.

Thus, we can conclude that a more electronegative atom will have more attraction to the electrons in a chemical bond.

zavuch27 [327]

Safety glasses should be worn any time you are doing an experiment, especially one that involves chemicals or chemical reactions. They prevent chemicals or other materials from getting on or in your eye, and can prevent anything from mild discomfort to permanent blindness.

Some pairs of safety glasses have magnifying glasses on them, similar to bifocals. They can be used to more carefully examine something in an experiment.

OLga [1]

Answer:

ΔH = -162.5 kJ.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, we first rearrange the reactions:

ClO(g) + O₃(g) ⇒ Cl(g) + 2O₂(g); ΔH =-122.8 kJ

2O₃(g) ⇒ 3O₂(g); ΔH=-285.3 kJ

O₃(g) + Cl(g) ⇒ ClO(g) + O₂(g); ΔH= ?

Thus, we are going to use the Hess law, as an strategy to rearrange the known chemical reactions and thereby compute the enthalpy of reaction of the unknown one.

1. The first reaction must be inverted in order to obtain chlorine as a reactant in the third one, therefore, the enthalpy of reaction becomes positive:

Cl(g) + 2O₂(g) ⇒ ClO(g) + O₃(g); ΔH = 122.8 kJ

2. Second reaction remains the same:

2O₃(g) ⇒ 3O₂(g); ΔH=-285.3 kJ

Then, we add them to obtain:

Cl(g) + 2O₂(g) + 2O₃(g) ⇒ ClO(g) + O₃(g) + 3O₂(g)

Whereas we can subtract both oxygen and ozone to obtain the third one:

O₃(g) + Cl(g) ⇒ ClO(g) + O₂(g)

Therefore, the enthalpy of reaction turns out:

ΔH = 122.8 kJ + (-285.3 kJ )

ΔH = -162.5 kJ.

Best regards.
