Answer: hydroxide ions

Explanation:

According to the Arrhenius concept, an acid is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydronium ion or hydrogen ion and a bases is a substance that ionizes in the water to give hydroxide ion .

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

As KOH can give hydroxide ions on dissociation , it is considered as arrhenius base.

Once of the skills necessary for this experiment is dilution. If you have 1.95 mL of .806 M bleach, what will be the new concent

aleksley [76]

Answer: The concentration of diluted bleach solution is 0.0157 M

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of the diluted solution, we use the equation:

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$

where,

$M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the molarity and volume of the concentrated bleach solution

$M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the molarity and volume of diluted bleach solution

We are given:

$M_1=0.806M\\V_1=1.95mL\\M_2=?M\\V_2=100mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.806\times 1.95=M_2\times 100\\\\M_2=\frac{0.806\times 1.95}{100}=0.0157M$

Hence, the concentration of diluted bleach solution is 0.0157 M

For which process is ΔS negative? Group of answer choices A. grinding a large crystal of KCl to powder B. raising the temperatur

ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Explanation:

The entropy (S) is the measure of the randomness of a system, and ΔS = Sfinal - Sinitial. As higher is the disorder of the system, as higher is the entropy.

A. When KCl is fractionated in power, there'll be more portions of it, so, the disorder must be higher, then ΔS is positive.

B. As higher is the temperature, higher is the kinetic energy of the system, and because of that, the disorder is also higher, so ΔS is positive.

C. The decrease in the volume (compression) decreases the distance between the molecules, so the system will be more organized, then ΔS is negative.

D. The volume before the mixing will be higher, and the ethanol will dissociate, so it will be more particles, the disorder will increase, and ΔS is positive.

E. Sgas > Sliquid > Ssolid because of the disorder of the molecules, then ΔS is positive.

You have collected a tissue specimen that you would like to preserve by freeze drying. To ensure the integrity of the specimen,

Reika [66]

Answer:

The maximum pressure is 612.2 Pa

Explanation:

The pressure of the ice (P1) = 624 Pa

The temperature of the ice = 273.16 K

The maximum temperature the specimen = - 5 oC

= -5 + 273 = 268K

The maximum Pressure the freeze drying can be will be (P2) = ?

Using Pressure law, which shows the relationship between pressure and temperature.

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

P2 T1 = P1 T2

P2 = P1 T2 / T1

P2 = 624 × 268 / 273.16

P2 = 612.2 Pa

The maximum pressure at which drying can be carried out is 612.2 Pa

Check the attached document more explanation. jjjjggggg
