Answer:

RbOH

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember what is the definition of a base. A base is a compound that has the ability to produce hydroxyl ions $OH^-$ , so:

$AOH~->~A^+~+~OH^-$

With this in mind we can write the reaction for each substance:

$HCOOH~->~HCOO^-~+~H^+$

$RbOH~->~Rb^+~+~OH^-$

$H_2CO_3~->~CO_3^-^2~+~2H^+$

$NaNO_3~->~Na^+~+~NO_3^-$

The only compound that fits with the definition is $RbOH$ , so this is our base.

I hope it helps!

What is the molarity of 225 grams of Cu(NO2)2 in a total volume of 2.59 L?

Kay [80]

Answer:

The molarity is 0.56 $\frac{moles}{L}$

Explanation:

In a mixture, the chemical present in the greatest amount is called a solvent, while the other components are called solutes. Then, the molarity or molar concentration is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution.

In other words, molarity is the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The Molarity of a solution is determined by:

$Molarity (M)=\frac{number of moles of solute}{Volume}$

Molarity is expressed in units ( $\frac{moles}{liter}$ ).

Then you must know the number of moles of Cu(NO₂)₂. For that it is necessary to know the molar mass. Being:

Cu: 63.54 g/mol
N: 14 g/mol
O: 16 g/mol

the molar mass of Cu(NO₂)₂ is:

Cu(NO₂)₂= 63.54 g/mol + 2*(14 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol)= 155.54 g/mol

Now the following rule of three applies: if 155.54 g are in 1 mole of the compound, 225 g in how many moles are they?

$moles=\frac{225 g*1 mole}{155.54 g}$

moles= 1.45

So you know:

number of moles of solute= 1.45 moles
volume=2.59 L

Replacing in the definition of molarity:

$Molarity=\frac{1.45 moles}{2.59 L}$

Molarity= 0.56 $\frac{moles}{L}$

The molarity is 0.56 $\frac{moles}{L}$

If you have 8.943 L of carbon monoxide gas at SATP, how many moles would it contain?

viktelen [127]

1mole contains 22.4Lmol^-1
xmole contains 8.943
cross-multiply
x=1×8.943/22.4
x=0.40mole
there it contains 0.40moles.

What do Potassium and Krypton have in common and what are their differences based on their location on the periodic table?

andreev551 [17]

Common based on their location in Periodic Table;

Potassium has an atomic number 19. Its electronic configuration is as follow;

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s¹

And Krypton has an atomic number of 36. Its electronic configuration is as follow;

1s², 2s², 2p⁶, 3s², 3p⁶, 4s², 3d¹⁰, 4p⁶

It is concluded that both Potassium and Krypton has their valence electrons in 4rth shell or they have same Principle Quantum Number.

Difference based on their location in Periodic Table;

As observed in electronic configuration Potassium has one valence electron in its valence shell (i.e. 4s¹) while, Krypton has eight valence electrons in its valence shell (i.e. 4s², 4p⁶). Therefore, they are different in the number of valence electrons.

_____ The primary function of molecular membranes is the transport of ions and molecules into and out of cells. The movement of

ale4655 [162]

<h2>Active Transport </h2>

Explanation:

A cell uses energy for the movement of substances against a concentration gradient or an electrochemical gradient that maintains a balanced concentration of ions and molecules in living cells.
This transport of substances is known as Active transport mechanisms which are the basic function of the cell membranes.
The energy used is in the form of ATP.
Active transport occurs when there is a difference in the concentration of particles on both sides.

A person’s blood alcohol (C2H5OH) level can be determined by titrating a sample of blood plasma

Elanso [62]

Answer:

0.17%

Explanation:

With the equation:

2Cr2O7 2- + C2H5OH + H2O --> 4Cr3+ + 2CO2 + 11H2O

We can assume that every mole of ethanol needs 2 moles of Dichromate to react.

So if in 1L we have 0.05961 moles of dichromate we can discover how many moles we have in 35.46mL

1000 mL - 0.05962 moles

35.46 mL - x

x = $\frac{0.05962 * 35.46}{1000}$

x = 2,11* 10^-3 moles

As we said earlier, 1 mole of ethanol needs 2 mole of dichromate, so in the solution we have 1,055*10^-3 moles of ethanol. We can discover the mass of ethanol present in the solution.

1 mole - 46g

1.055*10^-3 - y

y = 46 * 1.055*10^-3

y = 0.048 g

To discover the percent of alchol we can use a simple relation

28 g - 100%

0.048 - z

z = $\frac{0.048 * 100}{28}$

z = 0.17%
