Answer : The balanced equation is,

$HF+H_2O\rightleftharpoons H_3O^++F^-$

Explanation :

According to the Bronsted Lowry concept, Bronsted Lowry-acid is a substance that donates one or more hydrogen ion in a reaction and Bronsted Lowry-base is a substance that accepts one or more hydrogen ion in a reaction.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

$HF+H_2O\rightleftharpoons H_3O^++F^-$

In this reaction, hydrofluoric acid is act as a Bronsted Lowry-acid because it donate one hydrogen ion to $H_2O$ and $H_3O^+$ is act as a Bronsted Lowry-base because it accept one hydrogen ion from $HF$ .

I need help with 4, 5, 8, 9, and 6. Quickly I need it before class starts. Worth points!!!!!! HelP

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

4. 264.6J

5. 37.5J

6. 96J

7. 55Watts

8. 77.14m

9. 6s

10. 750Watts

Explanation:

4). Mechanical energy (potential energy) = mass (m) × acceleration due to gravity (g) × height (h)

m = 3kg, h = 9m, g = 9.8m/s²

P.E = 3 × 9 × 9.8

= 264.6J

5). Kinetic energy (K.E) = 1/2 × m × v²

Where;

m = mass (kg) = 3kg

v = velocity (m/s) = 5m/s

K.E = 1/2 × 3 × 5²

K.E = 1/2 × 3 × 25

K.E = 1/2 × 75

K.E = 37.5J

6). Work done (J) = Force (N) × distance (m)

Force = 12N, distance = 8m

Work done = 12 × 8

= 96J

7). Power = work done (J) ÷ time (s)

Work done = 550J, time = 10s

Power = 550/10

= 55Watts.

8). Work done = force (F) × distance (m)

Work done = 540J, force = 7N, distance = ?

540 = 7 × d

540 = 7d

d = 540/7

d = 77.14m

9). Power = work done (J) ÷ time (s)

Work done = 300J, time = ?, Power = 50Watts.

50 = 300/t

50t = 300

t = 300/50

t = 6seconds.

10). Power = work done (J) ÷ time (s)

This means that;

Power = force × distance / time

Force = 300N, distance = 5m, time = 2s

Power = 300 × 5 ÷ 2

Power = 1500 ÷ 2

Power = 750Watts

1. A chemical bond between metals and nonmetals; valence electrons are transferred ____.

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

1. Ionic bonding

2. Covalent bonding

3. Metallic bonding

Explanation:

Ionic bonding also referred to as electrovalent bonding is a kind of chemical bonding that involves the transfer of electrons between the valence shells of two elements with a large electronegativity difference usually a metal and a nonmetal.

For example an ionic bonding scenario might play out between a group one metal and a group seven halogen. While group one metals have one electron hindering their stability, group seven halogens need that one electron that could make them achieve this stability. It is this that causes them to come together in a way where the electron is transferred completely from the valence shell of the group 1 atom and accepted into the valence shell of the group 7 halogen.

Covalent bonding involves the sharing of electrons between atoms of comparable electronegativities. The electro negativity difference is not large enough to permit the total movement of the electrons and hence the electrons are then controlled by the nuclei of the two atoms

Between two metals, what we have is called the metallic bonding
