Answer : The correct statement is:
The density of each piece is the same as that of the original block.
Explanation :
Intensive property : It is defined as a property of substance which does not change as the amount of substance changes.
Examples: Temperature, refractive index, density, hardness, etc.
According to question, if Ana has a block made of pure gold and she cuts this block into two equal pieces then the density of each piece is the same as that of the original block because density is an intensive property that does not changes until and unless material is changed.
That means density remains same as that of the original piece.
Hence, the correct statement is the density of each piece is the same as that of the original block.
Answer:
HF
H₂S
H₂CO₃
NH₄⁺
Explanation:
<em>Which acid in each of the following pairs has the stronger conjugate base?</em>
According to Bronsted-Lowry acid-base theory, <em>the weaker an acid, the stronger its conjugate acid</em>. Especially for weak acids, pKa gives information about the strength of such acid. <em>The higher the pKa, the weaker the acid.</em>
<em />
- Of the acids HCl or HF, the one with the stronger conjugate base is HF because it is a weak acid.
- Of the acids H₂S or HNO₂, the one with the stronger conjugate base is H₂S because it is a weaker acid. pKa (H₂S) = 7.04 > pKa (HNO₂) = 3.39
- Of the acids H₂CO₃ or HClO₄, the one with the stronger conjugate base is H₂CO₃ because it is a weak acid.
- Of the acids HF or NH₄⁺, the one with the stronger conjugate base is NH₄⁺ because it is a weaker acid. pKa (HF) = 3.17 < pKa (NH₄⁺) = 9.25
Answer:
The charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a complete octet of valence shell electrons
Explanation:
A charged carbon atom of a carbocation has a valence shell that is not filled, <u>that's why it acts as an electrophile (or a Lewis base)</u>. This unfilled valence shell is also the reason of the nucleophilic attack that takes place during the second step of a SN1 reaction.
The answer to this is yes they are likely, true.
