Answer:

a. The reaction associated with DHºf for an ionic compound

Explanation:

An exothermic process is a process that loses heat for the surroundings, so the temperature of the system must decrease, and ΔH must be negative.

DHºf or ΔHºf of an ionic compound is always negative because the final energy is always lower than the initial. It happens because of the stability of the bond, the system wants a lower energy state to be stable.

The ionization of a lithium atom occurs with the gain of energy, which is given to the electron, so it may give off the atom. So it's an endothermic process.

To change the state of a solid to a gas (sublimation), the compound must gain heat, its temperature must increase, so it's always an endothermic process.

To break a covalent bond it's necessary the gain of energy, so it's an endothermic process.

Answer:A

Explanation:

The enthalpy change of formation for an ionic compound is calculated from the Born-Haber cycle. Using the Hess law of constant heat summation. The result is always negative (exothermic) because energy is given out when the new lattice is formed.

Law Incorporation [45]

Aspartame (C₁₄H₁₈N₂O₅) is a solid used as an artificial sweetener. its combustion produces carbon dioxide gas, liquid water, and nitrogen gas

C₁₄H₁₈N₂O₅ + 16O₂-----> 14CO₂ + 9H₂O + N₂.

As it can be seen from the equation, that the coefficient of nitrogen gas in the balanced equation for the reaction is 1.

So the answer here is 1 only that is coefficient of nitrogen gas in the balanced equation for the reaction is 1.

Give the electron configurations for the elements given. use the noble gas core preceding for the inner electrons.
Umnica [9.8K]
Noble Gas Cores have following electronic configuration

He  =  1s²
Ne  =  [He] 2s², 2p⁶
Ar  =   [Ne] 3s², 3p⁶
Kr  =   [Ar] 4s², 4p⁶
Xe  =  [Kr] 5s², 5p⁶

Now solving for question elements,

Germanium = Ge  =  [Ar] 3d¹⁰, 4s², 4p²

Nickle = Ni  =  [Ar] 3d¹⁰, 4s²

Tunsten = W  =  [Xe] 4f¹⁴, 5d⁴, 6s²

Titanium = Ti  =  [Ar] 3d², 4s²

Iron = Fe  =  [Ar] 3d⁶, 4s²

Zinc = Zn  =  [Ar] 3d¹⁰, 4s²

What are the concentrations of acetic acid (pka = 4.76) and acetate in a buffer solution of 0.10 m at ph 4.9?
Strike441 [17]

Solution:

We have to use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation: for this calculation

Henderson–Hasselbalch equation describes the derivation of pH as a measure of acidity by using pKa, the negative log of the acid dissociation constant in biological and chemical systems. The equation is also useful for estimating the pH of a buffer solution and finding the equilibrium pH in acid-base reaction.  

The equation is given by:

 

Here, [HA] is the molar concentration of the un dissociated weak acid, [A⁻] is the molar concentration (molarity, M) of this acid's conjugate base and pKa is −log10 Ka where Ka is the acid dissociation constant, that is:

         pH = pKa + log([A^-]/[HA])  

We look up the pKa for acetic acid:  

pKa = 4.76  

Let x = molarity of AcO^- and y = molarity of AcOH: Then we have the following two equations in two unknowns:  

(1) x + y = 0.10 M  

and  

(2) 4.9 = 4.76 + log(x/y)  

Further calcite the value of x and y by algebraic method and get the answer.
