The addition of NaOH to water would result in which of the following?

Chemistry
1 answer:
EleoNora [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A decrease in [H3O+] and an increase in pH (option a)

Explanation:

Equilibrium of water is shown in this equation

2H₂O  ⇄  H₃O⁺  +  OH⁻

When you add NaOH, you are modifying [OH⁻]

NaOH  →   Na⁺  +  OH⁻

In equilibrium of water, the [OH⁻] increases

2H₂O   ⇄   ↓  H₃O⁺   +   OH⁻  ↑

As the [OH⁻] increases, by Le Chatellier, the equilibrium tends to decrease [H₃O⁺].

If the [OH⁻] is higher, pH  is also high so the solution of water and sodium hydroxide would be totally basic.

The electron configurations of two unknown elements x and y are shown. X: 1s2 2s2 2p6 Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 Which statement is
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

B) They will react because X and Y can share two pairs of electrons to become stable

Explanation:

The electron configurations of two elements x and y are given :

X: 1s2 2s2 2p6

Y: 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6

The statement that is true for both the elements is that, they both will react as they both can share two pairs of electrons to become stable.

To become stable the outermost shell or p orbital should have 8 electrons, so element X  can gain 2 atoms to become stable.

Element Y can also react as it can also share two atoms to fulfill its 3p orbital and will stable.

Hence, the correct option is "B".

Nistu is cooking rice in a pot. When she leaves the pot on the stove for a while, the temperature of the rice increases. What ha
Mila [183]

Answer:

Their average kinetic energy increases

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy of the rice molecules increases as the pot is left on the cooking stove.

Heat is transferred to the pot by conduction from the heat source. The heat is then transferred to the rice in the cooking pot by convection.

  • As the water in the pot heats up.
  • The rice gains thermal energy.
  • This causes the molecules of the rice particles to start vibrating.
  • As the molecules vibrate about their fixed position, their thermal energy continues to increase.
  • Therefore, the amount of heat absorbed by the rice increases with time and this actually cooks the food.

Which of the following is/are true regarding initial and maximal velocity of enzyme-mediated reactions?
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

a. True

b. True

c. False

d. True

Explanation:

a). A a very low substrate concentration , $S. Thus according to the Machaelis-Menten equation becomes

$V_0 = \frac{V_{max} \times [S]}{Km}$

Here since the $V_0$ varies directly to the substrate concentration [S], the initial velocity is lower than the maximal velocity. Thus option  (a) is true.

b). The Michaelis -Menten kinetics equation states that :

   $V_0 = \frac{V_{max} \times [S]}{Km+[S]}$

  Here the initial velocity changes directly with the substrate concentration as $V_0$ is directly proportional to [S]. But $V_{max}$ is same for any particular concentration of the enzymes. Thus, option (b) is true.

c). As the substrate concentration increases, the initial velocity also increases. Thus option (c) is false.

d). Option (d) explains the procedures to estimate the initial velocity which is correct. Thus, option (d) is true.
