Identify the base and conjugate acid pair in the following equation: HF + H 2 O >

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alex_Xolod [135]4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

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

Thus, HF is the acid and H₂O is the base.

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.

HF/F⁻ make one conjugate acid/base pair, and H₂O/H₃O⁺ are the other conjugate acid/base pair.

\rm \underbrace{\hbox{HF}}_{\hbox{acid}} + \underbrace{\hbox{H_{2}\rm O}}_{\hbox{base}} \rightleftharpoons \underbrace{\hbox{H_{3}\rm O^{+}}}_{\hbox{conj. acid}} +\underbrace{\hbox{F^{-}}}_{\hbox{conj. base}}

Which of the following statements about chemical and physical properties is false?
Ber [7]

Answer:

The odor of a substance is a physical property. That would be your answer.

Explanation:

Physical Properties

Physical properties are properties that can be measured or observed without changing the chemical nature of the substance. Some examples of physical properties are:

color (intensive)

density (intensive)

volume (extensive)

mass (extensive)

boiling point (intensive): the temperature at which a substance boils

melting point (intensive): the temperature at which a substance melts

Chemical Properties

Remember, the definition of a chemical property is that measuring that property must lead to a change in the substance’s chemical structure. Here are several examples of chemical properties:

Heat of combustion is the energy released when a compound undergoes complete combustion (burning) with oxygen. The symbol for the heat of combustion is ΔHc.

Chemical stability refers to whether a compound will react with water or air (chemically stable substances will not react). Hydrolysis and oxidation are two such reactions and are both chemical changes.

Flammability refers to whether a compound will burn when exposed to flame. Again, burning is a chemical reaction—commonly a high-temperature reaction in the presence of oxygen.

The preferred oxidation state is the lowest-energy oxidation state that a metal will undergo reactions in order to achieve (if another element is present to accept or donate electrons).

What units should be used when describing the density of oil?
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Generally, density is measured using he SI unit for measurement of density which is kg/m³ or the cgs units used to describe the density of a substance which is g/cm³

However, due to its nature (being composed of varying amount proportions of different compounds mixed together resulting in a variation of the density of naturally produced crude oil) of having different densities whereby the lighter oils are more easily processed than the heavier variety of oils, oil density is related to the quality of the oil and it is usually measures in API gravity as follows;

°API = (141.5/S.G.) - 131.5

Where;

API = American Petroleum Institute

S. G. = Specific gravity

As such the API gravity of fresh water with a S. G. of 1.0 has is 10 degrees

When Fe2O3(s) reacts with H2(g) to form Fe(s) and H2O(g), 98.8 kJ of energy are absorbed for each mole of Fe2O3(s) that reacts.
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

Fe₂O₃(s) + 3H₂(g)  =  2Fe (s) + 3H₂O - 98.8 kJ .

one mole of ferric oxide reacts with 3 mole of hydrogen to give 2 mole of iron and 3 mole of water .   98.8 kJ of heat is absorbed .
