Explanation:

The given compounds are oxyacids and in these compounds more is the electronegativity of the central atom more will be its acidic strength.

This is because more is the electronegativity of the central atom more will be the polarity of OH bond. As a result, the compound can readily lose H^{+} ion.

Also, more is the electronegativity of central atom more will be the stability of conjugate base formed.

Thus, we can conclude that given compounds are arranged in increasing acid strength as follows.

       HOI < HOBr_{2} < HOCl_{3} < HOF

Can someone solve this for me I'm confused.
Artemon [7]

Answer:

310.53 g of Cu.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

CuSO₄ + Zn —> ZnSO₄ + Cu

Next, we shall determine the mass of CuSO₄ that reacted and the mass Cu produced from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of CuSO₄ = 63.5 + 32 + (16×4)

= 63.5 + 32 + 64

= 159.5 g/mol

Mass of CuSO₄ from the balanced equation = 1 × 159.5 = 159.5 g

Molar mass of Cu = 63.5 g/mol

Mass of Cu from the balanced equation = 1 × 63.5 = 63.5 g

Summary:

From the balanced equation above,

159.5 g of CuSO₄ reacted to produce 63.5 g of Cu.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of Cu produced by the reaction of 780 g of CuSO₄. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

159.5 g of CuSO₄ reacted to produce 63.5 g of Cu.

Therefore, 780 g of CuSO₄ will react to produce = (780 × 63.5)/159.5 = 310.53 g of Cu.

Thus, 310.53 g of Cu were obtained from the reaction.

A 250 mL sample of gas is collected over water at 35°C and at a total pressure of 735 mm Hg. If the vapor pressure of water at 3
ELEN [110]

Answer:

The volume of the gas sample at standard pressure is <u>819.5ml</u>

Explanation:

Solution Given:

let volume be V and temperature be T and pressure be P.

V_1=250ml

V_2=?

P_{total}=735 mmhg

1 torr= 1 mmhg

42.2 torr=42.2 mmhg

so,

P_{water}=42.2mmhg

T_1=35°C=35+273=308 K

Now

firstly we need to find the pressure due to gas along by subtracting the vapor pressure of water.

P_{gas}=P_{total}-P_{water}

=735-42.2=692.8 mmhg

Now

By using combined gas law equation:

\frac{P_1*V_1}{T_1} =\frac{P_2*V_2}{T_2}

V_2=\frac{P_1*}{P_2}*\frac{T_2}{T_1} *V_1

V_2=\frac{P_gas}{P_2}*\frac{T_2}{T_1} *V_1

Here P_2 \:and\: T_2 are standard pressure and temperature respectively.

we have

P_2=750mmhg \:and\: T_2=273K

Substituting value, we get

V_2=\frac{692.8}{750}*\frac{273}{308} *250

V_2= 819.51 ml

What would happen to the ecosystem if there were no nitrogen-fixing bacteria
Gre4nikov [31]
Essentially all the available nitrogen for life in the form of nitrates and ammonia would eventually disappear. Nitrogen is needed to make proteins and other chemicals so it is required for all life to exist. It gets recycled so it would take many decades in most places before the available nitrogen ran out. Many crops like beans depend on it. Humans can manufacture it but it would be hard on the ecosystems of the world and eventually probably lead to the extinction of all the ecosystems of the world.


Hope this helps!
