Describe the formation of an aqueous KI solution when KI dissolves in water

1 answer:

8 0

Potassium Iodide or KI is an ionic compound and dissolves to water since the two are polar substances. Like dissolves like. As KI is dissolved into water, the KI molecules dissociates into ions, the K+ and I- ions. Water molecules can stabilize these ions. The K+ ions attracts the negative side of H2O molecules which is the oxygen side while the I- ions attracts the positive side of H2O molecules or the hydrogen side.

What is the molarity of an H3PO4solution if 15.0 mL is completely neutralized by 38.5 mL of 0.150 MNaOH? Please explain your ans

rodikova [14]

Answer:

M=Molarity

V=volume

change millilitre to litre

so:15ml=0.015 L

:38.5ml=0.0385 L

M1V1=M1V1

M1* 0.015 L= 0.15M*0.0385 L

M1=0.00385

I need help, I don't understand the question

Oduvanchick [21]

Remember this.

Ionic molecules has ionic bonds
Nonpolar molecules has dispersion (Van del Waals)
Polar molecules could either have hydrogen bonding or Dipole-Dipole. Hydrogen bonding is when you have F, O or N with H, every other polar molecule is dipole-dipole.

a. polar- dipole-dipole
b. polar- hydrogen bonding
c. nonpolar- dispersion
d. nonpolar- dispersion
e. polar- dipole-dipole
f. polar-dipole-dipole
g. nonpolar- dispersion
h. polar- hydrogen bonding.
