Answer: The pOH is: " 2.40 " .

__________________________________________________________

The pOH value of a 0.0010 M solution of calcium hydroxide;

Ca(OH)₂ ; is:

__________________________________________________________

" 2.40 " .

__________________________________________________________

Explanation:

___________________________________________________________

Calculate the pOH of a 0.0010 M solution of Ca(OH)₂ .

Note that:

"M" represents the concentration in "Molarity" ;

(that is; "moles of solute per Liter of solution" ; or, "mol / L " } ;

and that for our purposes, anything notes in "brackets" refers to "concentration"; in "M" {"Molarity" ; as explained above.}.

Note that "calcium hydroxide", that is; " Ca(OH)₂ " ;

→ dissociates into the following ions, as follows:

→ Ca(OH)₂ → Ca²⁺ + 2 OH⁻ ;

Therefore, the [OH⁻] equals: {2 * 0.0010} M = 0.0040 M .

For every Ca(OH)₂ you produce 2 OH⁻ .

<u>Note</u>: pOH = - log [OH⁻] ;

pOH = - log ( 0.0040) = 2.3979400086720375 ;

→ round to: " 2.40 " .

Answer: The pOH is: " 2.40 " .

__________________________________________________________

The pOH value of a 0.0010 M solution of calcium hydroxide; Ca(OH)₂ ; is:

" 2.40 " .

What happens when sodium and chlorine react to make table salt <br><br> Please help

Julli [10]

When a sodium atom transfers an electron to a chlorine atom, forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-), both ions have complete valence shells, and are energetically more stable. The reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat energy.

Explain why ice is able to float on water

agasfer [191]

Ice floats because it is about 9% less dense than liquid water. ... The heavier water displaces the lighter ice, so ice floats to the top. One consequence of this is that lakes and rivers freeze from top to bottom, allowing fish to survive even when the surface of a lake has frozen over

The expected o-c-h angle in this molecule is degrees. the expected hybridization at the central carbon is

WINSTONCH [101]

Each neutral carbon atom contains four valence electrons and may form up to four electron domains. Possible hybridizations include

$sp^{3}$ , four electron domains, as in ethane $\text{C}_2\text{H}_6$
$sp^{2}$ , three electron domains, as in ethene $\text{C}_2\text{H}_4$
$sp$ , two electron domains, as in ethyne $\text{C}_2\text{H}_2$

Molecules of each of the three hybridization demonstrate spatial configurations that would maximizes the separation between the electron domains.

Carbon atoms with a $sp^{3}$ hybridization would demonstrate a tetrahedral configuration with a bond angle of approximately $109.5\textdegree{}$
Carbon atoms with a $sp^{2}$ hybridization would demonstrate a triangular planar configuration with a bond angle of $120\textdegree{}$
Carbon atoms with a $sp$ hybridization would demonstrate a linear configuration with a bond angle of $180\textdegree{}$

Bond angles are characteristic of the spatial configuration of electron domains and identifies the hybridization of the central carbon atom.

Note that each hydrogen atom contains only one valence electron and would form only single bonds. It takes two valence electrons for oxygen atoms to achieve an octet such that each oxygen form only two bonds at a single time. Therefore given the fact that the carbon is bonded to both hydrogen and oxygen, only the following hybridizations are possible

$sp^{3}$ in which the oxygen atom forms a carbon-oxygen double bond with the central carbon atom;
$sp^{2}$ in which the oxygen atom forms a single bond with the central carbon atom and with a second atom.

Use the molar bond enthalpy data in the table to estimate the value of Δ∘rxn

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol

Explanation:

CH4(g) + 4Cl2(g) → CCl4(g) + 4HCl(g)

⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4ΔH°HCl(g) + ΔH°CCl4(g) - 4ΔH°Cl2(g) - ΔH°CH4(g)

∴ ΔH°Cl2(g) = 0 KJ/mol.....pure element in its reference state

∴ ΔH°CCl4(g) = - 138.7 KJ/mol

∴ ΔH°HCl(g) = - 92.3 KJ/mol

∴ ΔH°CH4(g) = - 74.8 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔH°rxn = 4(- 92.3 KJ/mol) + (- 138.7 KJ/mol) - 4(0 KJ/mol) - (- 74.8 KJ/mol)

⇒ ΔH°rxn = - 369.2 KJ/mol - 138.7 KJ/mol - 0 KJ/mol + 74.8 KJ/mol

⇒ ΔH°rxn = - 433.1 KJ/mol
