What is the reason for the low solubility of LiF (0.27 g

Chemistry
1 answer:
Brut [27]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The answer is C. The high solvation energy for LI+

Explanation:

LiF has lower solubility because of the high solvation energy of Li+ ion. This is due to the smaller  size and very big charge compared to Cs+ ion which has a bigger size and solvent molecules easily surround it.

Solvation energy is simply the amount energy that is required to make a solute dissolve in a solvent.

Where do convection currents form?
pshichka [43]

Answer:

I think it's C

<u>Convection currents are identified in Earth's mantle. Heated mantle material is shown rising from deep inside the mantle, while cooler mantle material sinks, creating a convection current. It is thought that this type of current is responsible for the movements of the plates of Earth's crust.</u>

Lanthanum-138 has a half-life of 105 billion years. after 525 billion years, how much of a 240 g sample of this radioisotope wil
Reika [66]

The amount of the 240 g sample of the radioisotope that will remain after 525 billion years is 7.5 g

<h3>How to the number of half-lives that has elapsed</h3>
  • Half-life (t½) = 105 billion years
  • Time (t) = 525 billion years
  • Number of half-lives (n) = ?

n = t / t½

n = 525 / 105

n = 5

<h3>How to determine the amount remaining</h3>
  • Original amount (N₀) = 240 g
  • Number of half-lives (n) = 5
  • Amount remaining (N) = ?

N = N₀ / 2ⁿ

N = 240 / 2⁵

N = 240 / 32

N = 7.5 g

Between HClO3 and HIO3, which is stronger and why? Question 16 options: 1) HClO3 is stronger because chlorine is in a higher oxi
natima [27]

Answer:

2) HClO3 is stronger because chlorine is more electronegative than iodine.

Explanation:

The more electronegative the element is the more strong or acidic it becomes.

Chlorine being more electronegative than Iodine makes it easier for it to pull the electron of hydrogen more strongly and hence has a higher tendency to release a H+ unit. Hence that makes it stronger.

Select all of the following equations that represent an exothermic reaction.
skelet666 [1.2K]
Exothermic reactions:

1)  release heat to the surroundings

2) the change of enthalpy, ΔH, is negative: ΔH < 0

3) the temperature of the system increases

With that you can conclude about every equation given:

<span>NH3(g) + 12.0 kcal → ½N2(g) + 3/2 H2(g) : is not exothermic because heat in the side of the reactants means that heat is being used, not released.

C(graphite) → C(diamond), ΔH = - 0.45 kcal : is exothermic because ΔH is negative

C + 2S → CS2, ΔH = 27,550 cal: is not exothermic because ΔH is positive

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O + 212,800 cal : is exothermic because heat appears as a product of the reaction, which means that it is released.

2H2O → 2H2 + O2, ΔH = +58 kcal : is not exothermic because ΔH is positive.</span>
