A standard solution is a solution (in this case sodium hydroxide) whose concentration (molarity) is known very precisely. <span>The molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution cannot be determined accurately because s</span>olid sodium hydroxide is highly hygroscopic (absorbs water from the air) and cannot be accurately weighed. Sodium hydroxide form sodium carbonate because it absorbs carbon dioxide from the air.

Answer:

- To set the actual or exact concentration of sodium hydroxide.

- It is hygroscopic.

Explanation:

Hello,

Standardization is a procedure in experimental chemistry to know the actual concentration of a solution, in this case, sodium hydroxide. Such process is carried out by titrating the solution of sodium hydroxide with acid potassium phthalate.

On the other hand, the molarity of sodium hydroxide is not determined accurately since it is a highly hygroscopic material, it means that it includes the water in its structure, therefore the determined molarity will not be accurate since there will be an amount of water included into the sodium hydroxide's exact amount.

Best regards.

Convert 7.02 mol of NaCl to formula units??
nika2105 [10]

<span>To convert the number of moles a compound to formula units, the conversion factor is Avogadro's number, 6.022 x10^23 formula units/ mol. In this case, we are given with 7.02 moles of sodium chloride. Hence the answer is 4.23 x 10^24 formula units.</span>

What is the wavelength (in nm) of the least energetic spectral line in the visible series of the H atom?
grin007 [14]

Answer:

Brackett Series (n = 4)

Explanation:

The least energetic line of Hydrogen atom lies in <em>Brackett Series </em>when n = 4 because these are least energetic, have longer wavelengths and lies in Infrared region of spectrum.  No traces of <em>Pfund series </em>are formed by H=atoms.

Help needed Assignment is due Justify that H2SO4 is Arrhenius acid and KOH is Arrhenius base.
irakobra [83]

Answer:

<u><em>Arrhenius Acid:</em></u>

According to Arrhenius concept, Acids are proton donors.

Since H₂SO₄ have a proton (H⁺ ion) and it can donate it to be made a sulphate ion, So it is an Arrhenius acid.

See the following reaction =>

<u><em>H₂SO₄ + H₂O => HSO₄ + H₃O⁺</em></u>

<u><em>Arrhenius Base:</em></u>

An Arrhenius base is a a proton acceptor.

KOH accepts the proton to to made to KOH₂ and a proton acceptor.

See the following reaction =>

<u><em>KOH + H₂o => KOH₂ + OH⁻</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>
