Answer:
No
Explanation:
The pH scale is a scale graduated from 0-14 which shows the degree of acidity of alkalinity of a substance. The pH scale is graduated in such a way that 0-6.9 indicates acidity, 7.0 indicate a neutral substance, while a pH of 8-14 indicates alkalinity respectively.
There are three main definitions of acids/bases
- Arrhenius definition
-Brownstead-Lowry definition
-Lewis definition
Arrhenius explains acids as any substance that produces hydrogen ions as its only positive ion in solution while a base produces hydroxide ions as its only negative ion in solution. The pH scale is based on corresponding values of pH derived from aqueous solutions of these substances.
However, not all acids/bases produces hydrogen or hydroxide ions in solution. Brownstead-Lowry definition of acids and Lewis definition of acids could be extended to nonaqueous media where the pH can not be measured as there are no hydrogen or hydroxide ions present in the solution.
This implies that pH measurement may not apply to acids/bases in the all the categories of acids/bases hence it can not be utilized for all acids and bases.
Arrhenius - sodium carbonate
Brownstead-Lowry - concentrated HF
Lewis acid - AlCl3
It can be found that 337.5 g of AgCl formed from 100 g of silver nitrate and 258.4 g of AgCl from 100 g of CaCl₂.
<u>Explanation:</u>
2AgNO₃ + CaCl₂ → 2 AgCl + Ca(NO₃)₂
We have to find the amount of AgCl formed from 100 g of Silver nitrate by writing the expression.
= 337.5 g AgCl
In the same way, we can find the amount of silver chloride produced from 100 g of Calcium chloride.
It can be found as 258.4 g of AgCl produced from 100 g of Calcium chloride.
Answer:
False
Explanation:
Atoms only achieve complete outer electron shells if they contain an outer shell with 7 electrons before gaining another electron or an outer shell with 1 electron before losing an electron. This is assuming that the octet-rule can be applied to said atom. In addition, the number of valence electrons varies from atom to atom which is why not ALL atoms achieve complete outer electron shells after gaining or losing just ONE electron.
Answer:
K = [ HOCl ] . [HgO. HgCl2] / [Cl2]^2 [H2O] [HgO]^2
Explanation:
The law of Mass Action states that, at constant temperature, the rate of reaction is proportional to the active masses of each of the reactants.
The reaction above is a reversible reaction and the law of mass action also applies to it.
The rate of reaction from left-to-right reaction = r1 = k. [Cl2]^2 [H2O] [HgO]^2
Rate of reaction from right - to - left r2 = k. [hocl]^2 [HgO . hgcl2]
Then at equilibrium,
r1 = r2
k1/k2 = [HOCl ]^2 [HgO. HgCl2] / [Cl2]^2 [H2O] [HgO]^2 = K
where K is the equilibrium constant for the reaction.
