A simple proportion,
10  \div 35 = x \div 61
61 \times 10 = 610
610 \div 35 = 17.42857
so x= 17.43~

Which of the following does not change the energy of the reactants relative to the activation energy?
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

Adding a catalyst

Explanation:

  • Activation energy is the minimum amount of energy needed to start a chemical reaction
  • A Catalyst is a material that increases the rate of a reaction by lowering the activation energy. In other words, a catalyst act to provide an alternative route for the reaction which has a lower activation energy.

Assuming all other conditions remain the same, which of the following will cause an object's density to increase?
Elanso [62]

Taking into account the definition of density,  assuming all other conditions remain the same, increasing mass will cause an object's density to increase.

Density is defined as the property that matter, whether solid, liquid or gas, has to compress into a given space. That is, density is a quantity referred to the amount of mass contained in a given volume.

Density is an intensive property since it does not vary with the amount of substance.

Since density is the relationship between the mass and the volume of a substance, its calculation is defined as the quotient between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

In the previous expression it can be observed that the density is inversely proportional to the volume: the smaller the volume occupied by a certain mass, the greater the density.

On the other hand, density is directly proportional to mass: the greater the mass, the greater the density.

Finally,  assuming all other conditions remain the same, increasing mass will cause an object's density to increase.

Complete the acid–base equation for the dissolution of the following compound into liquid HF solvent. The relevant pKa values ar
LenKa [72]

Answer:

The balanced chemical equation: NH₃ + 2 HF → NH₄⁺ + HF₂⁻

Explanation:

According to the Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, the acid- base reaction is a type of chemical reaction between the acid and base to give a conjugate acid and a conjugate base.

In this reaction, a Brønsted–Lowry acid loses a proton to form a conjugate base. Whereas, a Brønsted–Lowry base accepts a proton to form a conjugate acid.

Acid + Base ⇌ Conjugate Base + Conjugate Acid

The acid dissociation constant (Kₐ) <em>signifies the acidic strength of a chemical species.</em>

∵ pKₐ = - log Kₐ

Thus for a strong acid, Kₐ value is large and pKₐ value is small.

pKₐ (HF) = 3.2 → strong acid

pKₐ (NH₃) = 38 → weak acid

<u>The chemical reaction involved in the dissolution process:</u>

NH₃ + 2 HF → NH₄⁺ + HF₂⁻

In this acid-base reaction, the acid HF reacts with NH₃ base to give the conjugate base HF₂⁻ and conjugate acid NH₄⁺.

<u>HF (acid) donates a proton to form the conjugate base, HF₂⁻ ion. NH₃ (base) accepts a proton to form the conjugate acid. </u>
