100 ml is drawn from 0.1 M solution of KCl and added to 900 ml of water. What is the

grandymaker [24]

Answer:

The new concentration will be 0.01 M.

Explanation:

To determine the new concentration we use the following formula.

concentration (1) × volume (1) = concentration (2) × volume (2)

concentration (1) = 0.1 M

volume (1) = 100 mL

concentration (2) = unknown

volume (2) = 100 mL + 900 mL = 1000 mL

concentration (2) = [concentration (1) × volume (1)] / volume (2)

concentration (2) = (0.1 × 100) / 1000 = 0.01 M

What are the chemical properties of beryllium phosphide??

o-na [289]

Answer:

Forms ionic bonds, insoluble, doesn't participate in single or double displacement reactions, non-reactive, high heat of combustion

Explanation:

Beryllium is a metal, since it belongs to group 2A, the alkaline earth metals. It has a total of 2 valence electrons.

Phosphorus, on the other hand, belongs to group 5A and has a total of 5 valence electrons.

We have a compound which has a metal in it, therefore, it's an ionic compound. Beryllium, our metal, loses its 2 electrons to gain an octet and phosphorus, our nonmetal, should gain 3 electrons to have an octet. The oxidation states are +2 and -3 respectively. This means we need 3 beryllium cations and 2 phosphide anions in our formula $Be_3P_2$ .

Beryllium phosphide would be expected to be insoluble, as only beryllium chloride, fluoride, nitrate, phosphate and sulfate are soluble substances, while the remaining ones are expected to be insoluble.

Due to its insolubility, beryllium phosphide would not participate in any ionic reactions, such as single displacement or double displacement.

Since it's insoluble, we expect this compound to be chemically stable and not reactive. This implies that if we wanted to burn it, the heat of combustion would be very high, as a lot of energy would be needed to be supplied in an endothermic reaction in order to burn it.

Given a gas whose temperature is 418 K at a pressure of 56.0 kPa. What is the pressure of the gas if its Temperature changes to

Rainbow [258]

Answer: P₂=0.44 atm

Explanation:

For this problem, we are dealing with temperature and pressure. We will need to use Gay-Lussac's Law.

Gay-Lussac's Law: $\frac{P_{1} }{T_{1} } =\frac{P_{2} }{T_{2} }$

First, let's do some conversions. Anytime we deal with the Ideal Gas Law and the different laws, we need to make sure our temperature is in Kelvins. Since T₂ is 64°C, we must change it to K.

64+273K=337K

Now, it may be uncomfortable to use kPa instead of atm, so let's convert kPa to atm.

$56.0kPa*\frac{1000Pa}{1kPa} *\frac{atm}{101325Pa} =0.55atm$

Since our units are in atm and K, we can use Gay-Lussac's Law to find P₂.

$P_{2} =\frac{T_{2} P_{1} }{T_{1} }$

$P_{2}=\frac{(337K)(0.55atm)}{418K}$

P₂=0.44 atm

When the concentration of reactant molecules is increased

a_sh-v [17]

Complete question is;

When the concentrations of reactant molecules are increased, the rate of reaction increases. The best explanation for this phenomenon is that as the reactant concentration increases,

A)the average kinetic energy of molecules increases.

B)the frequency of molecular collisions increases.

C)the rate constant increases.

D)the activation energy increases.

E)the order of reaction increases.

Answer:

B) The frequency of molecular collisions increases.

Explanation:

When we increase number of reactant molecules, the effective collision between the reactant molecules will form a product which also increases. As a result, the overall rate of the reaction will also increase which means the frequency of the molecular collision will also increase as well.

Thus, the correct answer is Option B
