Elements or atoms depending on the options, but I would guess atoms.
a. 43.1 g
b. 38.2%
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
32.5 grams of NaOH
Required
The theoretical yield of Na₂CO₃
The percent yield
Solution
Reaction
2NaOH(s) + CO₂(g) → Na₂CO₃(s) + H₂O(l)
mol NaOH :
= mass : MW
= 32.5 : 40 g/mol
= 0.8125
mol Na₂CO₃ from the equation :
= 1/2 x mol NaOH
= 1/2 x 0.8125
= 0.40625
a.
Mass Na₂CO₃ :
= mol x MW Na₂CO₃
= 0.40625 x 106 g/mol
= 43.0625≈43.1 g
b. % yield = (actual/theoretical) x 100%
%yield = 16.45/43.1 x 1005
%yield = 38.17%≈38.2%
Answer : The pH of a 0.1 M phosphate buffer is, 6.86
Explanation : Given,

Concentration of acid = 0.1 M
Concentration of conjugate base (salt) = 0.1 M
Now we have to calculate the pH of buffer.
Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :
![pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[Salt]}{[Acid]}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3DpK_a%2B%5Clog%20%5Cfrac%7B%5BSalt%5D%7D%7B%5BAcid%5D%7D)
Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:


Therefore, the pH of a 0.1 M phosphate buffer is, 6.86
The color emitted be larger atoms is lower in energy then the light emitted by smaller atoms
Answer:
The answer is B. Van der Waals forces are weaker than ionic and covalent bonds.
Explanation:
In general, if we arrange these molecular forces from the strongest to weakest, it would be like this:
Covalent bonds > Ionic bonds > Hydrogen bonds > Dipole-Dipole Interactions > Van der Waals forces
Covalent bonds are known to have the strongest and most stable bonds since they go deep and into the inter-molecular state. A diamond is an example of a compound with this characteristic bond.
Ionic bonds are the next strongest molecular bond following covalent bonds. This is due to the protons and electrons causing an electro-static force which results to the strong bonds. An example would be Sodium Chloride (NaCl), which when separated is Na⁺ and Cl⁻.
Van der Waals forces, also known as Dispersion forces, are the weakest type of molecular bonds. They are only formed through residual molecular attractions when molecules pass by each other. It doesn't even last long due to the uneven electron dispersion. It can be made stronger by adding more electrons in the molecule. This kind of molecular bonds appear in non-polar molecules such as carbon dioxide.
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
