<h2>Answer:</h2>

A chemical bond is a lasting attraction between atoms, ions or molecules that enables the formation of chemical compounds. The bond may result from the electrostatic force of attraction between oppositely charged ions as in ionic bonds or through the sharing of electrons as in covalent bonds.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Chemical bonds are formed by gaining, yielding or sharing electrons to reach stable electronic configurations such as those of noble gases. Electropositive atoms give up electrons to complete the most stable configuration, leaving them with a negative charge defect.

We mix 0.08 moles of chloroacetic acid (ClCH2COOH) and 0.04 moles of

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

A. pH using molar concentrations = 2.56

B. pH using activities = 2.46

C. pH of mixture = 2.56

Explanation:

A. pH using molar concentrations

ClCH₂COOH + H₂O ⇌ ClCH₂COO⁻ + H₃O⁺

HA + H₂O ⇌ A⁻ + H₃O⁺

We have a solution of 0.08 mol HA and 0.04 mol A⁻

We can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to calculate the pH.

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{pH} & = & \text{pK}_{\text{a}} + \log \left(\dfrac{[\text{A}^{-}]}{\text{[HA]}}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 +\log \left(\dfrac{0.04}{0.08}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 + \log0.50 \\& = &2.865 - 0.30 \\& = & \mathbf{2.56}\\\end{array}$

B. pH using activities

(i) Calculate [H⁺]

pH = -log[H⁺]

$\text{[H$^{+}$]} = 10^{-\text{pH}} \text{ mol/L} = 10^{-2.56}\text{ mol/L} = 2.73 \times 10^{-3}\text{ mol/L}$

(ii) Calculate the ionic strength of the solution

We have a solution of 0.08 mol·L⁻¹ HA, 0.04 mol·L⁻¹ Na⁺, 0.04 mol·L⁻¹ A⁻, and 0.00273 mol·L⁻¹ H⁺.

The formula for ionic strength is

$I = \dfrac{1}{2} \sum_{i} {c_{i}z_{i}^{2}}\\\\I = \dfrac{1}{2}\left [0.04\times (+1)^{2} + 0.04\times(-1)^{2} + 0.00273\times(+1)^{2}\right]\\\\= \dfrac{1}{2} (0.04 + 0.04 + 0.00273) = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 0.08273 = 0.041$

(iii) Calculate the activity coefficients

$\ln \gamma = -0.510z^{2}\sqrt{I} = -0.510(-1)^{2}\sqrt{0.041} = -0.510\times 0.20 = -0.10\\\gamma = 10^{-0.10} = 0.79$

(iv) Calculate the initial activity of A⁻

a = γc = 0.79 × 0.04= 0.032

(v) Calculate the pH

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{pH} & = & \text{pK}_{\text{a}} + \log \left(\dfrac{a_{\text{A}^{-}}}{a_{\text{[HA]}}}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 +\log \left(\dfrac{0.032}{0.08}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 + \log0.40 \\& = & 2.865 -0.40\\& = & \mathbf{2.46}\\\end{array}\\$

C. Calculate the pH of the mixture

The mixture initially contains 0.08 mol HA, 0.04 mol Na⁺, 0.04 mol A⁻, 0.05 mol HNO₃, and 0.06 mol NaOH.

The HNO₃ will react with the NaOH to form 0.05 mol Na⁺ and 0.05 mol NO₃⁻.

The excess NaOH will react with 0.01 mol HA to form 0.01 mol Na⁺ and 0.01 mol A⁻.

The final solution will contain 0.07 mol HA, 0.10 mol Na⁺, 0.05 mol A⁻, and 0.05 mol NO₃⁻.

(i) Calculate the ionic strength

$I = \dfrac{1}{2}\left [0.10\times (+1)^{2} + 0.05 \times(-1)^{2} + 0.05\times(-1)^{2}\right]\\\\= \dfrac{1}{2} (0.10 + 0.05 + 0.05) = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 0.20 = 0.10$

(ii) Calculate the activity coefficients

$\ln \gamma = -0.510z^{2}\sqrt{I} = -0.510(-1)^{2}\sqrt{0.10} = -0.510\times 0.32 = -0.16\\\gamma = 10^{-0.16} = 0.69$

(iii) Calculate the initial activity of A⁻:

a = γc = 0.69 × 0.05= 0.034

(iv) Calculate the pH

$\text{pH} = 2.865 + \log \left(\dfrac{0.034}{0.07}\right ) = 2.865 + \log 0.49 = 2.865 - 0.31 = \mathbf{2.56}$

Aqueous humor forms during capillary filtration in the __________?

Karolina [17]

Answer:

Ciliary body.

Explanation:

Ciliary body: It is the known for the part of the eye that includes the ciliary muscle, which helps in the control the ciliary epithelium and lens shape, which are helping in the production of aqueous humor.

Through active secretion mechanism helping in to produce eighty percent of aqueous humor, and through the plasma ultra-filtration mechanism twenty percent of aqueous humor is produced.

Ciliary body is the part of the layer which helps to deliver the nutrients, and oxygen to the eye tissues, and this layer is known as uvea.

Consider the reaction between reactants s and o2: 2s(s)+3o2(g)→2so3(g)if a reaction vessel initially contains 7 mols and 9 mol o

nadya68 [22]

Answer: -

1 mol

Explanation: -

Number of moles of Sulphur S = 7

Number of moles of O2 = 9

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is

2S (s)+3 O2 (g)→2SO3(g)

From the above reaction we can see that

3 mol of O2 react with 2 mol of S

9 mol of O2 will react with $\frac{2 mol S x 9 mol O2}{3 mol O2}$

= 6 mol of S

Unreacted S = 7 - = 1 mol.

If a reaction vessel initially contains 7 mol S and 9 mol O2

1 mole of s will be in the reaction vessel once the reactants have reacted as much as possible
