What produces hydrogen ions as the only positive ions in aqueous solution?

⇒ Le Chatellier says As the CaCO3 concentration is increased, the system will attempt to undo that concentration change by shifting the balance to the right. This statement is true.

2) For the following reaction at equilibrium: CaCO3(s)⇌ CaO(s) + CO2(g) increasing the total pressure by adding Ar(g) will shift the equilibrium to the right.

⇒ Le chatellier says that if we increase the pressure, the equilibrium will shift to the side with the least number of particles.

Since the molar densities of CaO and CaCO3 are constant, they don't appear in the equilibrium expression. This is why only changes to the pressure (concentration) of CO2 affect the position of the equilibrium.

If the pressure in the container is increased by adding an inert or non-reacting gas, nothing happens to the amounts of CO2, CaO or CaCO3. The added gas won't affect the partial pressure of CO2. This statement is false.

3)For the following reaction at equilibrium: 2 H2(g) + O2(g) ⇌ 2 H2O(g) the equilibrium will shift to the left if the volume is doubled.

⇒ Le Chatellier says if we increase the pressure, the equilibrium will shift to the side with the most particles.

In this case we have 2 moles of H2 and 1 mole of O2 on the left side and 2 mole of H2O on the right side. This means on the left side are more particles. So the equilibrium will shift to the left, so this statement is true.

4) For the following reaction at equilibrium: H2(g) + F2(g) ⇌ 2HF(g) removing H2 will increase the amount of F2 present once equilibrium is reestablished. Increasing the temperature of an endothermic reaction shifts the equilibrium position to the right.

⇒ Le chatellier says if H2 will be removed (this means the left side will get less particles) so the equilibrium will shift to the left, to increase the amount of F2.

⇒Le chatelier says if we increase the temperature of an exotherm reaction , there will be less energy released. The equilibrium will shift to the side of the reactants (the left side).

If we increase the temperature of an endotherm reaction, the equilibrium will shift to the side of the products (the right side). This statement is true.

Why are nanowhiskers used to repel stains on fabrics??

WINSTONCH [101]

Nanowhiskers or cellulose nanofibers are nano-structured cellulose produced by bacteria. They have relatively high crystallinity and ability to form a dense network held together by inter-fibrillar bonds that has the tendency to act as a barrier through their film-forming properties to which they can repel stains on fabric.

Determine the bonding type for boron trihydride given the electronegativity on the Pauling scale for boron is 2.0 and for hydrog

Anika [276]

Answer: The bond between boron and hydrogen in boron trihydride is covalent bond.

Explanation:

The type of bonding between the atoms forming a compound is determined by using the electronegativity difference between the atoms. According to the pauling's electronegativity rule:

If $\Delta \chi=0$ , then the bond is non-polar.
If $\Delta \chi\leq 1.7$ , then the bond will be covalent.
If $\Delta \chi>1.7$ , then the bond will be ionic.

We are given:

Electronegativity for boron = 2.0

Electronegativity for hydrogen = 2.1

$\Delta \chi=\chi_{H}-\chi_{B}\\\\\Delta \chi=2.1-2.0=0.1$

As, $\Delta \chi$ is less than 1.7 and not equal to 0. Hence, the bond between boron and hydrogen is covalent bond.
