Answer:

Explanation:

The electrochemical series can be used to check if a particular element has a greater activity than the other. Firstly, on the electrochemical series, it can be seen that lead is at a higher position compared to mercury. All things being equal, it will show a higher activity than mercury and hence can knock it off its salt.

Although it is the Overall standard electrode potential that tells us if a reaction is feasible or not, we can use the activity series to quickly discern if the reaction is possible or not. The overall standard electrode potential of both is positive which makes the reaction to be feasible and hence lead can display mercury off its salt

Answer:

The correct answer is 4

Explanation:

Boron trifluoride (BF₃) has a molecular geometry (as shown in the image in the question) referred to as trigonal planar; this is because each of the the fluorine atoms/molecules (bonded to the central boron atom) is placed in such a way that they form the three "end points"/"domains" of an equilateral triangle. Hence, the correct option is the last option.

Positive Deviation from Raoult's Law occurs when the vapour pressure of component is greater than what is expected in Raoult's L

8090 [49]

Answer:

All of the above.

Explanation:

In positive deviation from Raoult's Law occur when the vapour pressure of components is greater than what is expected value in Raoult's law.

When a solution is non ideal then it shows positive or negative deviation.

Let two solutions A and B to form non- ideal solutions.let the vapour pressure of component A is $P_A$ and vapour pressure of component B is $P_B$ .

$P^0_A$ = Vapour pressure of component A in pure form

$P^0_B$ = Vapour pressure of component B in pure form

$x_A$ =Mole fraction of component A

$x_B=$ =Mole fraction of component B

The interaction between A- B is less than the interaction A- A and B-B interaction.Therefore, the escaping tendency of liquid molecules in mixture is greater than the escaping tendency in pure form.Hence, the vapour pressure of a mixture is greater than the initial value of vapour pressure.

$P_A >P^0_A\cdot x_A$ , $P_B>P^0_B\cdot x_B$
