Complete the acid–base equation for the dissolution of the following compound into liquid HF solvent. The relevant pKa values ar
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The balanced chemical equation: NH₃ + 2 HF → NH₄⁺ + HF₂⁻

Explanation:

According to the Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, the acid- base reaction is a type of chemical reaction between the acid and base to give a conjugate acid and a conjugate base.

In this reaction, a Brønsted–Lowry acid loses a proton to form a conjugate base. Whereas, a Brønsted–Lowry base accepts a proton to form a conjugate acid.

Acid + Base ⇌ Conjugate Base + Conjugate Acid

The acid dissociation constant (Kₐ) <em>signifies the acidic strength of a chemical species.</em>

∵ pKₐ = - log Kₐ

Thus for a strong acid, Kₐ value is large and pKₐ value is small.

pKₐ (HF) = 3.2 → strong acid

pKₐ (NH₃) = 38 → weak acid

<u>The chemical reaction involved in the dissolution process:</u>

NH₃ + 2 HF → NH₄⁺ + HF₂⁻

In this acid-base reaction, the acid HF reacts with NH₃ base to give the conjugate base HF₂⁻ and conjugate acid NH₄⁺.

<u>HF (acid) donates a proton to form the conjugate base, HF₂⁻ ion. NH₃ (base) accepts a proton to form the conjugate acid. </u>

Hospital patients are administered oxygen from an pressurized
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

32000atm

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law equation;

P1V1 = P2V2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (atm)

P2 = final pressure (atm)

V1 = initial volume (

V2 = final volume (L)

According to the question below:

P1 = 160.0 atm

P2 = 3.0 atm

V1 = 600L

V2 = ?

Using P1V1 = P2V2

160 × 600 = 3 × V2

96000 = 3V2

V2 = 96000/3

V2 = 32000atm

What can liquids and gases do that solids cannot?
Aleks [24]

Answer:

What can liquids do that solids cannot?Liquids will flow and fill up any shape of container. Solids like to hold their shape. In the same way that a large solid holds its shape, the atoms inside of a solid are not allowed to move around too much. Atoms and molecules in liquids and gases are bouncing and floating around, free to move where they want.

What can gases do that solids cannot?The atoms and molecules in gases are much more spread out than in solids or liquids. They vibrate and move freely at high speeds. A gas will fill any container, but if the container is not sealed, the gas will escape. Gas can be compressed much more easily than a liquid or solid.

I hope this helps
