Answer:

C. 2.0 x 10⁻³

Explanation:

The average rate of a reaction is the rate of change of the concentration of the reactants (or products) with time.

The average rate of the reaction = - (ΔC)/(Δt).

∵ The concentration of the reactants changes from 1.8 M to 0.6M for 580 s.

∴ The average rate of the reaction over the first 580 seconds

= - (ΔC)/(Δt) = - [(0.6M) - (1.8 M)]/[(580.0 s) - (0.0 s)] = 2.0 x 10⁻³ M.s⁻¹.

So C. 2.0 x 10⁻³ is the right answer

In an aqueous solution, 42% of a substance dissociates to release hydronium ions. Which of the following statements is true for

const2013 [10]

Answer: The statement it is a weak acid is true for the substance.

Explanation:

An acid that dissociates completely when dissolved in water to give hydrogen $(H^{+})$ or hydronium $(H_{3}O^{+})$ ions is called a strong acid.

For example, HCl is a strong acid.

$HCl + H_{2}O \rightarrow H_{3}O^{+} + Cl^{-}$

An acid that dissociates partially or weakly when dissolved in water to given hydrogen or hydronium ions is called a weak acid.

For example, $CH_{3}COOH$ is a weak acid.

$CH_{3}COOH \rightleftharpoons CH_{3}COO^{-} + H_{3}O^{+}$

A strong base is a base which when dissolved in water then it dissociates completely to give hydroxide ions.

For example, NaOH is a strong acid.

A weak base is a base which when dissolved in water then it dissociates partially or weakly to give hydroxide ions.

For example, $NH_{3}$ is a weak base.

Hence, in an aqueous solution where 42% of a substance dissociates to release hydronium ions shows that the dissociation is less than 50%. This means that substance is dissociating weakly so, it is a weak acid.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement it is a weak acid is true for the substance.

Propane, C3H8, consists of ________________ bonds and it can be expected to dissolve in hexane and to not dissolve in water.

PtichkaEL [24]

Non-polar covalent

Explanation:

Propane is made up of non-polar covalent bonds and it can be expected to dissolve in hexane and to not dissolve in water.

Propane is an hydrocarbon gas.

It forms by sharing of electrons between two atoms with very low electronegativity differences.

This differences results in equal sharing of the shared electron. Therefore they form a non-polar covalent bond.

Water is a polar covalent compound and cannot dissolve compounds that are not polar like propane.

Propane will only dissolve in a like substance like hexane which is equally non-polar.

Indicate whether each of the following statements is correct or incorrect.1)Every Bronsted-Lowry acid is also a Lewis acid2)Ever

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

1) correct

2) incorrect

3) correct

4)incorrect

Explanation:

1) A Lewis acid is a substance that accepts a nonbonding pair of electrons.

A Bronsted-Lowry acid is a substance that donates a proton H⁺

Since the donation of a proton involves the acceptance of a pair of electrons, every Bronsted-Lowry acid is also a Lewis acid.

2)A Lewis acid not necessarily needs to have a proton to be donated.

3) Conjugated acids of weak bases are strong acids and conjugated acids of strong bases are weak acids.

4)K⁺ comes from a strong base, therefore is does not have an acidic behaviour.
