<h2>Answer with Explanation </h2>

The energy transformation involved in heating soup in microwaves occurs due to microwave radiation. The radiant energy which also known as heat energy in the microwave causes the water molecules in the soup to gain kinetic energy. Hence, the molecules collide with each other more often causing the soup to heat up in form of waves that are built within the microwave. This is also the reason it is termed as mircowave due to release of waves.

<u>Answer:</u> The net ionic equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Net ionic equation of any reaction does not include any spectator ions.

Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation. They are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction when it is present in ionic form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of magnesium nitrate and aqueous ammonia (ammonium hydroxide) is given as:

$Mg(NO_3)_2(aq.)+2NH_4OH(aq.)\rightarrow Mg(OH)_2(s)+2NH_4NO_3(aq.)$

A white precipitate of magnesium hydroxide is formed in the above reaction.

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

$Mg^{2+}(aq.)+2NO_3^-(aq.)+2NH_4^+(aq.)+2OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow Mg(OH)_2(s)+2NH_4^+(aq.)+2NO_3^-(aq.)$

As, ammonium and nitrate ions are present on both the sides of the reaction. Thus, it will not be present in the net ionic equation and are spectator ions.

The net ionic equation for the above reaction follows:

$Mg^{2+}(aq.)+2OH^-(aq.)\rightarrow Mg(OH)_2(s)$

Hence, the net ionic equation is written above.

What is the conjugate acid in the following equation:

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

HNO₂

Explanation:

An acid is a proton donor; a base is a proton acceptor.

Thus, NO₂⁻ is the base, because it accepts a proton from the water.

H₂O is the acid, because it donates a proton to the nitrite ion.

The conjugate base is what's left after the acid has given up its proton.

The conjugate acid is what's formed when the base has accepted a proton.

NO₂⁻/HNO₂ make one conjugate acid/base pair, and H₂O/OH⁻ are the other conjugate acid/base pair.

NO₂⁻ + H₂O ⇌ HNO₂ + OH⁻

base acid conj. conj.
