Inter molecular forces are the forces which mediate interaction between molecules, including forces of attraction or repulsion which act between molecules and other types of neighboring particles, e.g., atoms or ions. Some include Hydrogen bonds and and Metallic bonding.

Intermolecular forces are the forces that happen between molecules. Just like an interstate is a highway that goes between different states, intermolecular forces are forces are forces between different molecules.

Hydrogen bonds are the strongest of the intermolecular forces.

A titration of 25.0 mL of a solution of the weak base aniline, C6H5NH2, requires 25.67 mL of 0.175 M HCl to reach the equivalenc

Lorico [155]

Answer:

a. 0.180M of C₆H₅NH₂

b. 0.0887M C₆H₅NH₃⁺

c. pH = 2.83

Explanation:

a. Based in the chemical equation:

C₆H₅NH₂(aq) + HCl(aq) → C₆H₅NH₃⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

<em>1 mole of aniline reacts per mole of HCl</em>

Moles required to reach equivalence point are:

Moles HCl = 0.02567L ₓ (0.175mol / L) = 4.492x10⁻³ moles HCl = moles C₆H₅NH₂

As the original solution had a volume of 25.0mL = 0.0250L:

4.492x10⁻³ moles C₆H₅NH₂ / 0.0250L = 0.180M of C₆H₅NH₂

b. At equivalence point, moles of C₆H₅NH₃⁺ are equal to initial moles of C₆H₅NH₂, that is 4.492x10⁻³ moles

But now, volume is 25.0mL + 25.67mL = 50.67mL = 0.05067L. Thus, molar concentration of C₆H₅NH₃⁺ is:

[C₆H₅NH₃⁺] = 4.492x10⁻³ moles / 0.05067L = 0.0887M C₆H₅NH₃⁺

c. At equivalence point you have just 0.0887M C₆H₅NH₃⁺ in solution. C₆H₅NH₃⁺ has as equilibrium in water:

C₆H₅NH₃⁺(aq) + H₂O(l) → C₆H₅NH₂ + H₃O⁺

Where Ka = Kw / Kb = 1x10⁻¹⁴ / 4.0x10⁻¹⁰ =

When the system reaches equilibrium, molar concentrations are:

[C₆H₅NH₃⁺] = 0.0887M - X

[C₆H₅NH₂] = X

[H₃O⁺] = X

Replacing in Ka formula:

2.5x10⁻⁵ = [X] [X] / [0.0887M - X]

2.2175x10⁻⁶ - 2.5x10⁻⁵X = X²

0 = X² + 2.5x10⁻⁵X - 2.2175x10⁻⁶

Solving for X:

X = -0.0015 → False solution. There is no negative concentrations.

X = 0.001477 → Right solution.

As [H₃O⁺] = X, [H₃O⁺] = 0.001477

Knowing pH = -log [H₃O⁺]

pH = -log 0.001477

Answer:

Actually, one of the more interesting organisms at those depths is the Xenophyophore, a creature which, despite being single-celled, can grow to be over 10 centimeters wide. "Scientists say xenophyophores are the largest individual cells in existence.

Consider the following scenario

GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Going by the clues that it is between Silver Flouride (AgF) and Sodium Fluoride (NaF) and since it is an aqueous solution , the 1 liter bottle is likely to be Sodium Chloride( NaCl). Going by the reaction,

AgF + NaCl= AgCl + NaF

Here, the color of AgCl is white, hence the solution cannot be AgCl.

Determination of NaCl

Determination of NaCl can be done by Mohr's Method or Volhard's method. But results in Volhard's method are more accurate . Its uses the method of back titration with Potassium Thiocynate which forms a AgCl precipitate . Prior to titration,excess AgNO3 ( The problem also has a clue that excess reagents are present in the lab ) is added to the NaCl solution so that all the Cl- ions react with Ag+. Fe3+ is then added as an indicator and the solution is titrated with KSCN to form a silver thiocyannite precipitate (AgSCN). Once all the silver has reacted, a slight excess of SCN- reacts with Fe3+ to form Fe(SCN)3 dark red complex. The concentration of Cl- is determined by subtracting the titer findings of Ag+ ions that reacted to form AgSCN from the Ag NO3 moles added to the solution. This is used because pH of the solution is acidic. If the pH of solution is basic, Mohr's method is used.

Reactions

Ag+ (aq)+ Cl-(aq) = AgCl(aq)

Ag+(aq) + SCN-(aq) = AgSCN(aq)

Fe3+(aq) + SCN-(aq) = [FeSCN]2- (aq)

As the elements in Period 2 are considered in order from lithium to fluorine, there is an

Lunna [17]

Answer:

B: electronegativity

Explanation:

Electronegativity is the measure of how strongly atoms attract bonding electrons to themselves.

A is incorrect because Atomic radius though decreases as you go from lithium to fluorine of the periodic table. Atomic radius increases when you go from either top to bottom of the periodic table, or if you go from right to left. So answer A is inaccurate.

C is incorrect because in period 2, all the elements have two electron subshells. For example, Al has 13 electrons. So it has two electron subshells. This is since the first subshell has only two valence electrons and while the second subshell in Al has 11 valence electrons. Therefore, it is inaccurate to say this answer.

D is incorrect because in the first shell, you can only have a max of two electrons. The first shell neither decreases or increases. Therefore, D is inaccurate too.

B is correct because as you go from the periodic table from left to right, the electronegativity and ionization energy increases. This is since the more valence electrons an element has, the more electronegative is. Fluorine for example is desperately trying to get one more electron to have a total of 8 electrons. It wants to have a full shell. Therefore, B is the most relevant answer.
