Zn(NO3)2 readily dissolves in water to form Zn2+ and 2NO3 ions. That makes it a strong electrolyte.

Answer is: zinc nitrate (Zn(NO₃)₂) is strong electrolyte.

Strong electrolyte is a compound that completely (or almost completely) ionizes or dissociates in a solution.

Strong electrolytes separate into particles (ions) in water because of their ionic or covalent polar bond.

Ions are good conductors of electric current in the solution. Strong electrolytes are strong acids (for example hydrochloric acid HCl), strong bases (sodium hydroxide NaOH, for example) and soluble ionic salts (in this example, zinc nitrate).

Zinc nitrate is ionic compound and strong electrolyte and dissociates in water on hydrated zinc cations and nitrate anions:

Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) → Zn²⁺(aq) + 2NO₃⁻(aq).

The half-life of plutonium-239 is 24300. If a nuclear bomb released 8kg of this isotope, how many years would pass before the am
Aneli [31]

Answer:

= 72900 years

Explanation:

  • The half-life is the time taken by a radioactive material to decay by half the original amount.
  • The half-life of plutonium-239 is 24300 years which means it takes 24300 years to decay by half the original amount.

To calculate the time taken for a mass of 8 kg to decay to 1 kg we use;

New mass = Original mass x (1/2) ^n, where n is the number of half-lives

Therefore;

1 kg = 8 kg × (1/2)^n

1/8 = (1/2)^n

solving for n;

n =3

Therefore;

Time = 3 × 24300 years

          = 72900 years

It will, therefore, take 72900 years for 8 kg of plutonium-239 to decay to 1 kg.

Which of the following would be classified as an acid to the Arrhenius definition
mixer [17]

Any substance that increases the concentration of H^+ in aqueous solutions is Arrhenius's acid.

<h3>What are Arrhenius acids?</h3>

Arrhenius define acids as substances with the chemical capacities to increase the concentration of hydrogen ion in aqueous solutions.

Thus, substances like HCl, HNO3, HBr, etc. would be considered an acid. This is because they ionize in aqueous solutions as follows:

HCl ---> H^+ + Cl^-

HNO_3 --- > H^+ + NO_3^-

HBr --- > H^+ + Br^-
