Answer: $NH_3$

Explanation:

a) $H_2$ : This is a non polar covalent compound which are held by weak vanderwaal forces of attraction.

b) $SO_2$ : This is a covalent compound which is polar due to the presence of lone pair of electrons and are held by dipole-dipole forces of attraction.

c) $NH_3$ : These are joined by a special type of dipole dipole attraction called as hydrogen bond. It forms between electronegative nitrogen atom and hydrogen atom and is the strongest interaction.

d) $CF_4$ : This is a covalent compound and is non polar which are held by weak vanderwaal forces of attraction.

e) $BCl_3$ : This is a covalent compound and is non polar which are held by weak vander waal forces of attraction.

A piece of metal with a mass of 150 g is placed in a 50 mL graduated cylinder. The water level rises from 20 mL to 45mL. What is

Flauer [41]

Answer:

25 mL

Explanation:

The water level increased from 20mL to 45mL

That is the volume of the metal

45 - 20 = 25

The volume of the metal was 25 mL

Density = mass / volume

Density = 150 / 25

Density = 6 grams / mL

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coeffici

Brut [27]

Question:

For the cell constructed from the hydrogen electrode and metal-insoluble salt electrode, B) calculate the mean activity coefficient for 0.124 b HCl solution if E=0.342 V at 298 K

Answer:

The mean activity coefficient for HCl solution is 0.78.

Explanation:

Activity coefficient is defined as the ratio of any chemical activity of any substance with its molar concentration. So in an electrochemical cell, we can write activity coefficient as γ. The equation for determining the mean activity coefficient is

$E=E_{0}-0.0514 \mathrm{V} \ln \gamma$

As we know that $E_{0}$ = 0.22 V and E = 0.342 V, the equation will become

$0.342 V+0.0514 V \ln (0.124)=0.22 V-0.0514 V \ln \gamma$

$0.342 V-0.222 V=-0.0514 V(\ln \gamma+\ln 0.124)$

$0.12 \mathrm{V}=-0.0514 \mathrm{V}(\ln \gamma+\ln 0.124)$

$\frac{0.12}{0.0514}=-\ln (0.124 \gamma)$

$-2.3346=\ln (0.124 \gamma)$

$e^{-2.3346}=0.124 \gamma$

$0.0968=0.124 \gamma$

$\gamma=\frac{0.0968}{0.124}=0.78$

So, the mean activity coefficient is 0.78.

A chemical reference book says that substance x is not soluble in water

oksano4ka [1.4K]

The normal dividing line for soluble/not soluble is 0.1 M.

If a substance, as a saturated solution at room temp and pressure, cannot form a solution concentration of 0.1 M, then it is considered insoluble.

The 0.1 M figure was selected because _most_ substances are either well above that value or well below. Some substances (calcium hydroxide is one? not sure) come close to the 0.1 M dividing line but there are only a very few.
but most likely it wont mix
