<h2> $NH_4OH$ contains both covalent and ionic bonds.</h2>

Explanation:

A covalent bond is formed when an element shares its valence electron with another element. This bond is formed between two non metals.

An ionic bond is formed when an element completely transfers its valence electron to another element. The element which donates the electron is known as electropositive element or the metal and the element which accepts the electrons is known as electronegative element or non metal.

a. $NCl_3$ contain covalent bonds as they are made up of non metals only.

b. $NaF$ contain ionic bonds as they are made up of sodium metal and fluorine non metal.

c. $HCN$ contain covalent bonds as they are made up of non metals only.

d. $NH_4OH$ contain ionic bonds between $NH_4$ and $OH$ and covalent between N and H in $NH_4^+$

Answer:

The position of an equilibrium always shifts in such a direction as to relieve a stress applied to the system -Le Chåtelier's principle

A molecule that donates a proton when it encounters a proton acceptor.- Bronsted-Lowry acid

Occurs when a reaction involving an acid and its conjugate base is combined with a second reaction involving a base and its conjugate acid.- Neutralization

It ionizes completely when dissolved in water.- Strong acid

The shift in the position of equilibrium caused by the addition of a participating ion.- Common ion effect

It only partially ionizes when dissolved in water.- Weak electrolyte

It is capable of acting as either an acid or a base depending upon the solute- Amphoteric solvent

The act of self-ionization of a solvent to produce both a conjugate acid and a conjugate base.- Auto-protolysis

A chemical species that bears both positive and negative charges.- Zwitterion

A solution with [ OH] of 5 x 10-3 has a pH of

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

11·699

Explanation:

Given the concentration of hydroxide ion in the solution is 5 × $10^{-3}$ M

Assuming the temperature at which it is asked to find the pH of the solution be 298 K

<h3>At 298 K the dissociation constant of water is $10^{-14}$ </h3><h3>∴ pH + pOH = 14 at 298 K</h3><h3>pOH of the solution = -log( concentration of hydroxide ion )</h3>

∴ pOH of the given solution = - log(5 × $10^{-3}$ = -0·699 + 3 = 2·301

pH of the given solution = 14 - 2·301 = 11·699

∴ pH of the solution = 11·699
