Chemistry
1 answer:
Ghella [55]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

<h3>2CH3COOH(l)⇒⇒⇒⇒(CH3COOH2)+ + (CH3COO)-</h3>

Explanation:

Remember that, ionization is a process by which an atom or a molecule receives a negative or positive charge by gaining or losing electrons during a chemical reaction. However the auto-ionization reaction for acetic acid the two solvent molecules (CH3COOH2)+ + (CH3COO-) collide and a proton is transferred between them.

What will happen to the chemical equilibrium if NH4Cl is added to this solution?
Tresset [83]
The answer to this item depends entirely to the chemical reaction. If the compound, NH4Cl, is in the left hand side of the reaction, when it is added, the reaction will shift to the left. In the same manner, when the compound is in the right-hand side of the reaction, the reaction will shift to the right.

This happens because initially the reaction is in equilibrium and adding another compound to it will most likely lead to the shifting of the reaction.

What are the 4 different types of bonds and how are they formed?
miv72 [106K]

There are four types of chemical bonds essential for life to exist: Ionic Bonds, Covalent Bonds, Hydrogen Bonds, and van der Waals interactions. We need all of these different kinds of bonds to play various roles in biochemical interactions. These bonds vary in their strengths.

To play a variety of roles in biochemical interactions, we require all of these diverse sorts of linkages. The tensile strength of these linkages varies. In chemistry, we consider the range of strengths between ionic and covalent bonds to be overlapping. This indicates that in water, ionic bonds usually dissociate. As a result, we shall consider these bonds from strongest to weakest in the following order:

Covalent is followed by ionic, hydrogen, and van der Waals.

Water was added to 175mL of a KOH solution until the volume was 250 mL and the molarity was 0.315 M. What was the molarity of th
timama [110]

Answer:

0.45 M

Explanation:

Now we need to make use of the dilution formula

C1V1= C2V2

C1= initial molarity of the solution which is the unknown

V1 = initial volume of the solution which is 175 ml

C2 =final molarity of the solution= 0.315 M

V2= final volume of solution= 250 ml

From C1V1= C2V2 we have;

C1= C2V2/V1

C1= 0.315 × 250/ 175

C1= 0.45 M

The ka value for acetic acid, ch3cooh(aq), is 1.8× 10–5. calculate the ph of a 1.60 m acetic acid solution.
leonid [27]

<span>To determine the pH of the solution given, we make use of the acid equilibrium constant (Ka) given. It is the ratio of the equilibrium concentrations of the dissociated ions and the acid. The dissociation reaction of the CH3COOH acid would be as follows:

</span>CH3COOH = CH3COO- + H+<span>

The acid equilibrum constant would be expressed as follows:

Ka = [H+][</span>CH3COO-] / [CH3COOH] = 1.8× 10^–5

<span>
To determine the equilibrium concentrations we use the ICE table,
         CH3COOH             H+             </span>CH3COO<span>-
I            1.60                    0                     0

----------------------------------------------------------------
E         1.60-x                   x                     x 

</span>1.8× 10^–5 =  [H+][CH3COO-] / [CH3COOH] <span>
1.8 x 10^-5 = [x][x] / [0.160-x] </span>

Solving for x,

x = 1.69x10^-3 = [H+] = [F-]

pH = -log [H+] = -log [1.69x10^-3] = 2.8
