Which base has the lowest ionization constant (Kb)?

Electrons are found in energy levels around the nucleus of an atom. Energy levels can also be called ""shells."" The energy leve

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

The first electronic shell or energy level, having n= 1, called the K shell, is the closest to the nucleus.

Explanation:

In an atom, the sub atomic particles called electrons, revolve around the nucleus of the given atom at different energy levels, called shells.

The energy levels or the electronic shells are denoted by the principal quantum number (n) and has the following values n = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7; from the innermost shell to the outermost.

The electron shells are also labelled by the alphabets, K, L, M, N, O, P, and Q, from the innermost shell to the outermost.

Thus the first electronic shell having n= 1, called K shell, is the lowest energy level and is present closest to the nucleus.

Whereas, the last electronic shell having n =7, called Q shell, is the highest energy level and is farthest from the nucleus.

We make a basic solution by mixing 50. mL of 0.10 M NaOH and 50. mL of 0.10 M Ca(OH)2. It requires 250 mL of an HCl solution to

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: The correct answer is Option 5.

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of the solution after mixing 2 solutions, we use the equation:

$M=\frac{n_1M_1V_1+n_2M_2V_2}{V_1+V_2}$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of the NaOH.

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of the $Ca(OH)_2$

We are given:

$n_1=1\\M_1=0.10M\\V_1=50mL\\n_2=2\\M_2=0.1\\V_2=50mL$

Putting all the values in above equation, we get:

$M=\frac{(1\times 0.1\times 50)+(2\times 0.1\times 50)}{50+50}\\\\M=0.15M$

To calculate the molarity of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is $HCl$

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base.

We are given:

$n_1=1\\M_1=?M\\V_1=250mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.15M\\V_2=100mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1\times M_1\times 250=1\times 0.15\times 100\\\\M_1=0.06M$

Hence, the correct answer is Option 5.

Explain Gay-Lussac’s Law in terms of the kinetic-molecular theory.

viktelen [127]

Answer:

Gay-Lussac's law states that in a closed system of fixed volume, as the temp and the pressure of the gas increases.

Explanation:

Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of a substance. As the temp of a substance rises, its molecules are moving faster

Does the excess reactant get used up completely in a reaction??

Alex787 [66]

Answer:

In a chemical reaction, reactants that are not used up when the reaction is finished are called excess reagents. The reagent that is completely used up or reacted is called the limiting reagent, because its quantity limits the amount of products formed.

What type of ion and what charge does sulfur form?

olga55 [171]

Sulfur forms compounds in oxidation states −2 (sulfide, S2−), +4 (sulfite, SO32−), and +6 (sulfate, SO42−). I don't know what type of ion but hope this helps!! :)
