Answer:
Titration
Explanation:
The best technique which can be used to determine the number of moles of the HCl in the sample is titration.
The given amount of HCl solution must be titrated with known concentration of the base like NaOH.
The volume of NaOH required must be noted also.
According to the reaction,
At equivalence point
Moles of = Moles of
Considering:-
Moles of
Thus, in this way, moles of HCl can be determined.
Answer:
Canonical structures of a chemical specie explain its observed properties from a valence bond theory perspective.
Explanation:
Resonance is a valence bond concept introduced by Linus Pauling to explain the observed properties of certain chemical species such as bond lengths, bond angles, bond order , etc.
There are certain chemical species for which a single chemical structure does not suffice in explaining its observed properties. For instance, the bond order in CO3^2- is about 1.33. Its bond length, shows that the C-O bond present in CO3^2- is neither a pure C-O single bond nor a pure C-O double bond. Hence the structure of CO3^2- is 'somewhere in between' three contributing canonical structures as shown in the image attached to this answer. The resonance structures of NO3^- are also shown.
