If a lake became too acidic, which of the following describes the best way that scientists could determine how to make the lake

more
neutral?
A. Dump a large quantity of a base, such as sodium hydroxide, into the lake.
B. Use samples of the lake water as models for testing the results of adding various chemicals.
C. Siphon off the acidic portions of the lake and leave the rest of the water alone.
D. Double the amount of water in the lake, so the acidity will be diluted.

Which is stronger - the attractive forces between water molecules and chromium and chloride ions, or the combined ionic bond str
Tju [1.3M]

Answer is: the combined ionic bond strength of CrCl₂ and intermolecular forces between water molecules.

When chromium chloride (CrCl₂) is dissolved in water, the temperature of the water increases, heat of the solution is endothermic.

Dissociation of chromium chloride in water: CrCl₂(aq) → Cr²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq).

Energy (the lattice energy) is required to pull apart the oppositely charged ions in chromium chloride.

The heat of hydration is liberated energy when the separated ions (in this example chromium cations and chlorine anions) attract polar water molecules.

Because the lattice energy is higher than the heat of the hydration (endothermic reaction), we can conclude that bonds between ions are strong (the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions).

Which of the following equations has the correct products and is balanced correctly for a reaction between Na3PO4 and KOH?
ASHA 777 [7]

The answer is: A) Na3PO4 + 3KOH → 3NaOH + K3PO4, because K retains the same charge throughout the reaction.

This chemical reaction is double displacement reaction - cations (K⁺ and Na⁺) and anions (PO₄³⁻⁻ and OH⁻) of the two reactants switch places and form two new compounds.  

Na₃PO₄ is sodium phosphate.  

KOH is potassium hydroxide.  

NaOH is sodium hydroxide.  

K₃PO₄ is potassium phosphate.  

According to the mass conservation law, there are same number of atoms on both side of balanced chemical reaction.

28. Describe the molecular geometry and hybridization of the N, P, or S atoms in each of the following compounds. (a) H3PO4, pho
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The molecular geometry of an atom is connected to the number of electron pairs that surround it(whether lone pairs or bonding pairs) as well as its hybridization state. We shall now examine the N, P, or S atoms in each of the following compounds.

a)

In H3PO4, P has a tetrahedral molecular geometry and is sp3 hybridized.

b) In NH4NO3

N is sp3 hybridized in NH4^+ and sp2 hybridized in NO3^-. Also, N is tetrahedral in NH4^+ but trigonal planar in NO3^-.

c) In S2Cl2, we expect a tetrahedral geometry but as a result of the presence of two lone pairs on each sulphur atom, the molecular geometry is bent. The sulphur is sp3 hybridized.

d) In K4[O3POPO3], each phosphorus atom is in a tetrahedral molecular geometry and is sp3 hybridized.

The energies of electrons are quantized. What does that mean?.
professor190 [17]

Answer:

The correct statement should be The energies of electron are <em>quantized</em> when <em>they are bounded to an atom.</em>

In Quantum Mechanics The term Quantization used to measure the physical entities having certain discrete value. When we say energies of electron are <em>quantized</em> <em>that means it have some specific values</em> that are allowed, that is not continuous range of values.

If an objects parallax cannot be detected what is the most likely to be true about the object
vovikov84 [41]
The distance of the object could be much bigger if <span>an object,s parallax cannot be detected. It is because t</span>he parallax of an object is inversely proportional to the object's distance from us. I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!
