Answer:

Species

Explanation:

Species is the group of organisms able to interbreed and produce fertile offspring.

Let's break down each word in the question:

"Organisms" means living thing. It can be a plant or animal like we usually think of, but it also includes the really small single-celled living things like some bacteria.

"Interbreed" means to mate with each other.

"Fertile" means that the living thing can also have babies.

"Offspring" means the children that are born.

"Fertile offspring" means that the children that are made must be able to have babies of their own. For example, if a frog and a bird could interbreed, they might produce offspring (children). But, if those frog-birds cannot also have children, then frog-bird is not a species.

Which reaction represents the process of neutralization? Mg(s)+2HCl(aq) MgCl 2 (aq)+H 2 (g) HCl(aq)+KOH(aq) KCl(aq)+H 2 O(l) C.

Alex

Answer:

HCl(aq) + KOH(aq) --> KCl(aq) + H2O(l)

Explanation:

A neutralization reaction is the process between an acid and a base (there are a number of different ways to define acids and bases). An acid is a compound, which dissolves in water by releasing H+ ions, and a base is a compound, which dissolves in water by releasing OH- ions (by Arrhenius' definition, the simplest one). In this case, the neutralization reaction is the process between HCl (hydrochloric acid) - an acid, and KOH (potassium hydroxide) - a base.

A compound has a pka of 7.4. to 100 ml of a 1.0 m solution of this compound at ph 8.0 is added 30 ml of 1.0 m hydrochloric acid.

Monica [59]

Using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation on the solution before HCl addition: pH = pKa + log([A-]/[HA]) 8.0 = 7.4 + log([A-]/[HA]); [A-]/[HA] = 4.0. (equation 1) Also, 0.1 L * 1.0 mol/L = 0.1 moles total of the compound. Therefore, [A-] + [HA] = 0.1 (equation 2) Solving the simultaneous equations 1 and 2 gives: A- = 0.08 moles AH = 0.02 moles Adding strong acid reduces A- and increases AH by the same amount. 0.03 L * 1 mol/L = 0.03 moles HCl will be added, soA- = 0.08 - 0.03 = 0.05 moles AH = 0.02 + 0.03 = 0.05 moles Therefore, after HCl addition, [A-]/[HA] = 0.05 / 0.05 = 1.0 Resubstituting into the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation: pH = 7.4 + log(1.0) = 7.4, the final pH.

Which statement correctly describes the relationship between thermal energy and particle movement?

Hunter-Best [27]

As thermal energy increases and there is more particle movement.

Thermal energy is the energy possessed by the system or object due to the movement of its particles.

For example kinetic energy of the particles
Higher the motion of the particles more will be the thermal energy of the system or object and vice-versa
It is also termed as heat energy of a system or object
The higher the thermal energy, the higher will be the temperature and vice versa.

So, from this, we can conclude that as thermal energy increases and there is more particle movement.

Suppose of hcl and of o2 are added to an empty flask. How much will be in the flask at equilibrium?A. None. B. Some, but less th

serg [7]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question.

Hydrogen chloride and oxygen react to form water and chlorine, like this:

$4HCI(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2(g)+2CI_2(g)$

Use this chemical equation to answer the questions in the table below.

Suppose 155. mmol of HCl and 38.8 mmol of O₂ are added to an empty flask. How much HCl will be in the flask at equilibrium?

(1) None.

(2) Some, but less than 155. mmol,

(3) 155. mmol,

(4) More than 155. mmol,

Answer : The correct option is, (1) None

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is:

$4HCI(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2(g)+2CI_2(g)$

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

As, 4 mmole of HCl react with 1 mmoles of $O_2$

So, 155. mmole of HCl react with $\frac{155.}{4}\times 1=38.75$ mmoles of $O_2$

That means, $O_2$ is excess reagent and $HCl$ is a limiting reagent. All the moles of HCl will consume.

Hence, the correct option is, None.

A sample of a substance has these characteristics:

MArishka [77]

<span>Those characteristic belong to an ionic compountd. Ionic compounds have strong bonds between their atoms (ionic bond is the strongest molecular bond) which conferes this kind of compounds high melting point, wich 9811 K is. Ionic compounds do not transmit current, because they do not have free electrons, like metals do, then they are poor conductors as solid. Ionic compounds dissolve in water into ions which are charges that can move, becoming then good conductors. The structure of ionic compound is a net of cristals which make them hard and brittle. Then, the answer i s option (4) an ionic compound.</span>
