Chemistry

Alja [10]2 years ago

3 0

Answer:

Solutions are always homogeneous.

Explanation:

Solution:

Solution are considered homogeneous because in solution the ratio of solute and solvent remain the same throughout the solution. Both solute and solvent are chemically combined and form a new substance.

In solution the particles of solute can not be seen through naked eye.

When the light is passed through the solution it can not scattered.

Example:

When salt is dissolve in water it makes a solution.

The solution also exist in gaseous form. For example oxygen and many other gases dissolved in nitrogen also form a solution.

Mixture:

In mixture substance are physically combined. In mixture every every individual particle retain their properties.

It can be consist of solid, liquid and gas.

Examples:

Sand in water is also a mixture.

Oil in water form mixture.

A word equation is a written description of a chemical reaction.
All word equations start with the reactants.
Then, what comes next is the word "react to form."
Finally, the products of the equation are mentioned.
An example is,
Zinc and Hypochondriac acid react to form hydrogen gas and zinc chloride.

Calculate the pH of the following simple solutions:

IceJOKER [234]

Answer :

(1) pH = 1.27

(2) pH = 13.35

(3) The given solution is not a buffer.

Explanation :

(1) 53.1 mM HCl

Concentration of HCl = $53.1mM=53.1\times 10^{-3}M$

As HCl is a strong acid. So, it dissociates completely to give hydrogen ion and chloride ion.

So, Concentration of hydrogen ion= $53.1\times 10^{-3}M$

pH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=-\log (53.1\times 10^{-3})$

$pH=1.27$

(2) 0.223 M KOH

Concentration of KOH = 0.223 M

As KOH is a strong base. So, it dissociates completely to give hydroxide ion and potassium ion.

So, Concentration of hydroxide ion= 0.223 M

Now we have to calculate the pOH.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$pOH=-\log (0.223)$

$pOH=0.65$

Now we have to calculate the pH.

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH\\\\pH=14-0.65=13.35$

(3) 53.1 mM HCl + 0.223 M KOH

Buffer : It is defined as a solution that maintain the pH of the solution by adding the small amount of acid or a base.

It is not a buffer because HCl is a strong acid and KOH is a strong base. Both dissociates completely.

As we know that the pH of strong acid and strong base solution is always 7.

So, the given solution is not a buffer.

Sometimes a new product is test-marketed. A limited amount of the product is released to a select group of users. Then the group

Akimi4 [234]

Answer:

Modification Step

Explanation:

The entire reason why test-marketing exists is to make sure that the product will be well received by the public. Once the test marketing concludes, the data from the test is analyzed. Then the company decides whether or not they will make changes on how the product looks, feels, performs, or even rebranding the product, all to make sure that the final consumer will like the product enough to want to purchase and continuously use the product. Which will in term increase profits for the company.

What is the molarity of a 2.0L solution that was made up with 4.0 moles of NaCl?

Finger [1]

Answer:

[NaCl]: 2M

Explanation:

This solution is made of NaCl therefore:

Our solute is NaCl

Moles of solute: 4

Our solution's volume is 2L

Molarity are the moles of solute contained in 1L of solution (mol/L)

[NaCl]: 4 mol /2L = 2M

We can also make a rule of three:

In 2 L we have 4 moles of solute

So, In 1 L we must have (1 . 4) /2 = 2 M

I believe there would still be 3 protons in Lithium-8 because its usually the neutrons that are affected.
