Water is A. Acidic B. Basic C. Neutral

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mariana [72]3 years ago
8 0

Water acts as an acid (donates H+) when it reacts with a stronger base, say sodium hydroxide. Water acts as a base (accepts H+) when it reacts with a stronger acid, say hydrochloric acid. If the medium is water, water, having a pH of 7, is considered neutral.

Ca(OH)2 (s) precipitates when a 1.0 g sample of CaC2(s) is added to 1.0 L of distilled water at room temperature. If a 0.064 g s
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Ca(OH)2 will not precipitate because Q<Ksp

Explanation:

Ksp for Ca(OH)2 has already been stated in the question as 8.0 x 10-8mol2dm-6

The value of the reaction quotient depends heavily on the concentration of the reactants. As the initial concentration of the calcium carbide decreases considerably, the reaction quotient decreases until Q<Ksp hence the Ca(OH)2 will not precipitate from solution.

The reaction equation is:

CaC₂(s) + H₂O ⇒ Ca(OH)₂ + C₂H₂

From

Ca(OH)2= Ca2+ + 2OH-

Concentration of solution= 0.064×1/64= 1×10-3

Since [Ca2+] = 1×10-3

[OH-]= (2×10-3)^2= 4×10^-6

Hence Q= 4×10^-9

This is less than the Ksp hence the answer.

How many moles are in 83.1g of CaBr2​
9966 [12]

Answer:

0.416 mol CaBr₂

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Chemistry - Atomic Structure</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Using Dimensional Analysis

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

83.1 g CaBr₂

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Molar Mass of Ca - 40.08 g/mol

Molar mass of Br - 79.90 g/mol

Molar Mass of CaBr₂ - 40.08 + 2(79.90) = 199.88 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

<u />83.1 \ g \ CaBr_2(\frac{1 \ mol \ CaBr_2}{199.88 \ g \ CaBr_2} ) = 0.415749 mol CaBr₂

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>We are given 3 sig figs. Follow sig fig rules and round.</em>

0.415749 mol CaBr₂ ≈ 0.416 mol CaBr₂

How many neutrons does element X have if its atomic number is 31 and its mass number is 80?
MrRissso [65]

49 neutrons in each nucleus.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

For each nucleus:

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons.

The atomic number of a nucleus is the same as its number of protons. The atomic number of the nucleus here is 31. There are 31 protons in each nucleus.

  • Mass number = 80;
  • Number of protons = Atomic number = 31;
  • The number of neutrons is to be found.

Again,

Mass number = Number of protons + Number of neutrons.

80 = 31 + Number of neutrons.

Number of neutrons = 80 - 31 = 49.

What is the pH of a solution with a concentration of 1.8 × 10-4 molar H3O+?
Andre45 [30]
PH is defined as the negative log of Hydrogen ion concentration. Mathematically we can write this as:

pH=-log[H^{+}]=-log[H_{3}O]

We are given the concentration of H_{3}O. Using the value in formula, we get:

pH=-log[1.8*10^{-4}]=3.745

Therefore, the pH of the solution will be 3.745

The chemical shift of the CH3 protons in diethylether is δ = 1.16 and that of the CH2 protons is 3.36. What is the difference in
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

Where Blocal = local magnetic field between the two regions of the molecule

Blocal = (1-σ)B0

ΔBlocal = (1-σ1)B0 - (1-σ2)B0 = (σ2 - σ1)B0 = ΔσB0 ≈ ΔδB0 x 10∧-6

= (3.36-1.16) x 10∧-6 x B0 = 2.20 x 10∧-6B0

(a) ΔBlocal = 2.20 x 10∧-6 x 1.9T = 4.2 μT

(b) ΔBlocal = 2.20 x 10∧-6 x 16.5T = 36.3 μT
