Bases are named like ionic compounds. An example would be: KOH. KOH is called: potassium hydroxide and Ca(OH)2 is calcium hydroxide.

<h3>Answer;</h3>

Bases are named like ionic compounds.

<h3>Explanation;</h3>

Ionic compounds are compounds that are formed as a result of ionic bond between metal and non-metal. This occurs as a result of transfer of electrons between the atoms involved where one losses electrons to form a cation and the other gains electrons to form an anion.
Most bases like the ionic compounds they contain a cation and an anion, which forms a compound.
An example would be: KOH (potassium hydroxide) and Ca(OH)2 is calcium hydroxide.

A compound has the empirical formula . a 256-ml flask, at 373 k and 750. torr, contains 0.527 g of the gaseous compound. give th

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer: From the ideal gas law, MM=mRTPV; where MM = molecular mass; m = mass; P = pressure in atmospheres; V= volume in litres; R = gas constant with appropriate units. So, 0.800â‹…gĂ—0.0821â‹…Lâ‹…atmâ‹…Kâ’1â‹…molâ’1Ă—373â‹…K0.256â‹…LĂ—0.987â‹…atm = 97.0 gâ‹…molâ’1. nĂ—(12.01+1.01+2Ă—35.45)â‹…gâ‹…molâ’1 = 97.0â‹…gâ‹…molâ’1. Clearly, n = 1. And molecular formula = C2H2Cl2. I seem to recall (but can't be bothered to look up) that vinylidene chloride, H2C=C(Cl)2 is a low boiling point gas, whereas the 1,2 dichloro species is a volatile liquid. At any rate we have supplied the molecular formula as required.

A 0.2722 g sample of a pure carbonate, X n CO 3 ( s ) , was dissolved in 50.0 mL of 0.1200 M HCl ( aq ) . The excess HCl ( aq )

Alex73 [517]

Answer:

0.00369 moles of HCl react with carbonate.

Explanation:

Number of moles of HCl present initially = $\frac{0.1200}{1000}\times 50.0$ moles = 0.00600 moles

Neutralization reaction (back titration): $NaOH+HCl\rightarrow NaCl+H_{2}O$

According to above equation, 1 mol of NaOH reacts with 1 mol of 1 mol of HCl.

So, excess number of moles of HCl present = number of NaOH added for back titration = $\frac{0.0980}{1000}\times 23.60$ moles = 0.00231 moles

So, mole of HCl reacts with carbonate = (Number of moles of HCl present initially) - (excess number of moles of HCl present) = (0.00600 - 0.00231) moles = 0.00369 moles

Hence, 0.00369 moles of HCl react with carbonate.

wolverine [178]

Answer:

The two elements are POLONIUM and RADIUM.

Explanation:

Maria Curie is a French physicist and chemist, though she was of a Polish naturals. She was the first woman to receive a Noble Price which she earned for conducting leading and head way research on radioactivity. She discovered the theory of radioactivity; also the techniques isolating radioactive isotopes. These helped her and her husband discover Polium and Radium.

Calculate the molar solubility of CaF2 at 25°C in a solution that is 0.010 M in Ca(NO3)2. The Ksp for CaF2 is 3.9 x 10-11.

madreJ [45]

Answer:

$Molar \ solubility=3.12x10^{-5}M$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the dissociation of calcium fluoride:

$CaF_2(s)\rightleftharpoons Ca^{2+}+2F^-$

The equilibrium expression is:

$Ksp=[Ca^{2+}][F^-]^2$

In such a way, via the ICE procedure, including an initial concentration of calcium of 0.01 M (due to the calcium nitrate solution), the reaction extent $x$ is computed as follows:

$3.9x10^{-11}=(0.01+x)(2*x)^2\\\\x=0.0000312M$

Thus, the molar solubility equals the reaction extent $x$ , therefore:

$Molar \ solubility=3.12x10^{-5}M$

Regards.
