Answer:

Time = 3.27s

Explanation:

Time = Distance / Speed

Time = 42.2 / 12.9 = 3.2713

When you multiply the number of significant figures in the result is the same as the number with the least significant figures.

In this case 42.2 has 3 significant figures and 12.9 also has 3 significant figures, therefore the answer must have 3 significant figures too.

Time = 3.27 s

Answer: 0.151

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

2HBr(g)\rightarrow H_2(g)+Br_2(g

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

Rate=-\frac{1d[HBr]}{2dt}=+\frac{1d[H_2]}{2dt}=+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}

Given: -\frac{d[HBr]}{dt}]=0.301

Putting in the values we get:

\frac{0.301}{2}=+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}

+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}=0.151

Thus the rate of appearance of Br_2 is 0.151

The white tern is a seabird that catches fish by plunging into the water. What physical features of the bird likely make this fe
V125BC [204]

White tern catches fish including crustaceans, flying fish, squid, and others. Prior of plunging into water, it hovers initially over the water surface and then either dives or dips in the surface, without getting entirely submerged into water, and catches its target.  

The food or fish is captivated in its small, however, sharp black beak that is specific as it bent upwards and tapers to a sharp point. It also possesses a long slender body with tapering, long wings, all of which encourage its diving or dipping activity into the surface of the water.

What substance would you add to KF(aq) to form a buffer solution? View Available Hint(s) What substance would you add to to form
AnnyKZ [126]
<h3>Answer</h3>

HF

<h3>Explanation</h3>

A buffer solution contains <em>a weak acid</em> and<em> its conjugate base</em>. The two species shall have a similar concentration in the solution. It's also possible for <em>a weak base</em> and <em>its conjugate acid</em> to form a buffer solution.

The KF solution already contains large number of \text{F}^{-} ions. The objective is to thus find its conjugate acid or base.

\text{F}^{-} contains no proton \text{H}^{+} and is unlikely to be a conjugate acid. Assuming that \text{F}^{-} is a conjugate base. Adding one proton to \text{F}^{-} would produce its conjugate acid.

\text{H}^{+} \; (aq) + \text{F}^{-} \; (aq) \rightleftharpoons \text{HF}\; (aq)

Therefore \text{HF} is the conjugate acid of \text{F}^{-}. \text{HF} happens to be a weak acid. As a result, combining \text{F}^{-} with \text{HF} would produce a solution with large number of both the weak acid and its conjugate base, which is a buffer solution by definition.
