Answer: The chemical formula for barium chloride shows the number of ATOMS of each element in the SMALLEST representative unit of the substance.
Explanation:
The chemical formula of compound are ways in which a chemical substance is being expressed using chemical symbols to show types of atoms and subscripts to indicate the number of atoms of each element. It shows the number of atoms in a single ( smallest) representative unit of the substance. Using the compound BaCl2;
"Ba" represents the abbreviation for the element "Barium" while "Cl2" represents the abbreviation for the element "chloride" with the subscript of two indicating the number of atoms of chlorine.
There are steps to be considered while writing a chemical compound of a substance, they include:
--> write the symbol of all the elements that forms the compound ( Ba and Cl).
--> write the valency of each element. (Ba has 2 valence electrons while Cl has 1 valence electron).
--> exchange the valency of the both elements such that Ba bears valency of 1 and Cl bears valency of 2 electrons.
--> finally, write the valency of second atom as subscript of first and Write valency of first atom as subscript of second. You will achieve BaCl2 as your chemical formula.
Answer:
V₂ ≈416.7 mL
Explanation:
This question asks us to find the volume, given another volume and 2 temperatures in Kelvin. Based on this information, we must be using Charles's Law and the formula. Remember, his law states the volume of a gas is proportional to the temperature.
where V₁ and V₂ are the first and second volumes, and T₁ and T₂ are the first and second temperature.
The balloon has a volume of 600 milliliters and a temperature of 360 K, but the temperature then drops to 250 K. So,
- V₁= 600 mL
- T₁= 360 K
- T₂= 250 K
Substitute the values into the formula.
- 600 mL /360 K = V₂ / 250 K
Since we are solving for the second volume when the temperature is 250 K, we have to isolate the variable V₂. It is being divided by 250 K. The inverse o division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides by 250 K.
- 250 K * 600 mL /360 K = V₂ / 250 K * 250 K
- 250 K * 600 mL/360 K = V₂
The units of Kelvin cancel, so we are left with the units of mL.
- 250 * 600 mL/360=V₂
- 416.666666667 mL= V₂
Let's round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place tells us to round to 6 to a 7.
The volume of the balloon at 250 K is approximately 416.7 milliliters.
I think the correct answer would be when ka increases, the acid strength increases. Ka is the product of hydronium ions and the [A-] ions concentration over the acid concentration. Therefore, increasing the the Ka, the numerator in the definition would increase as well which correspondingly increase the strength of the acid.
