How would you prepare a saturated solution of potassium nitrate?

1 answer:

5 0

Using titration method,

Pipette 25 cm3 of KOH into a conical flask. Add a few drops of methyl orange(indicator).
Then pour a beaker of Dilute nitric acid (HNO3) into a burette. Record the readings of the burette before starting.

1)While releasing some nitric acid into the conical flask, swirl the conical flask.
2)Stop swirlimg or adding nitric acid when color of the solution in the conical flask turns light pink. That will be end point. Record the reading of the burette.
3)Repeat the experiment without adding methyl orange(indicator)
4)Add the same vol of nitric acid used previously.
5)Solution in conical flask transfer over to a dish.
6)Heat the solution till it becomes saturated.

They have free electron(s) on their outermost energy levels making them good conductors.
They have metallic bonds in their chemical structure.
They readily lose the electrons on their outermost energy levels, to bond with non-metals in ionic bonds to form chemical compounds called "salts"

If a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy:________

Nuetrik [128]

Answer: If a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy then the wavelength of the hydrogen atom will be roughly equal to the wavelength of the helium atom.

Explanation:

The relation between energy and wavelength is as follows.

$E = \frac{hc}{\lambda}\\$

This means that energy is inversely proportional to wavelength.

As it is given that energy of a hydrogen atom and a helium atom is same.

Let us assume that $E_{hydrogen} = E_{helium} = E'$ . Hence, relation between their wavelengths will be calculated as follows.

$E_{hydrogen} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{hydrogen}}$ ... (1)

$E_{helium} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{helium}}$ ... (2)

Equating the equations (1) and (2) as follows.

$E_{hydrogen} = E_{helium} = E'\\\frac{hc}{\lambda_{hydrogen}} = \frac{hc}{\lambda_{helium}} = E'\\\lambda_{helium} = \lambda_{hydrogen} = E'$

Thus, we can conclude that if a hydrogen atom and a helium atom have the same kinetic energy then the wavelength of the hydrogen atom will be roughly equal to the wavelength of the helium atom.

What is biological oxygen demand

jek_recluse [69]

Hey there!!

Biological Oxygen demand is the amount of dissolved oxygen needed by aerobic biological organisms to break down organic material present in a given water sample at certain temperature over a specific time period.

Hope this helped you and have a fantastic day! (:
