Complete the equation to show how hydrofluoric acid, HF, acts as a Brønsted-Lowry acid in water. Balanced equation:

Chemistry
1 answer:
shepuryov [24]3 years ago
8 0

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.

How much heat is released when 75 g of octane is burned completely if the enthalpy of combustion is -5,500 kJ/mol CsH18? C8H18 +
aalyn [17]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) 3600 kJ

Explanation :

Mass of octane = 75 g

Molar mass of octane = 114.23 g/mole

Enthalpy of combustion = -5500 kJ/mol

First we have to calculate the moles of octane.

\text{ Moles of octane}=\frac{\text{ Mass of octane}}{\text{ Molar mass of octane}}=\frac{75g}{114.23g/mole}=0.656moles

Now we have to calculate the heat released in the reaction.

As, 1 mole of octane released heat = -5500 kJ

So, 0.656 mole of octane released heat = 0.656 × (-5500 kJ)

                                                                   = -3608 kJ

                                                                   ≈ -3600 kJ

Therefore, the heat released in the reaction is 3600 kJ

Describe the pattern that thermal energy follows as it moves
mars1129 [50]
When you bring two objects of different temperature together, energy will always be transferred from the hotter to the cooler object.  The objects will exchange thermal energy, until thermal equilibrium<span> is reached, i.e. until their temperatures are equal.  We say that </span>heat<span>flows from the hotter to the cooler object.  </span><span>Heat is energy on the move.</span> <span> 
</span>Units of heat are units of energy.  The SI unit of energy is Joule.  Other often encountered units of energy are 1 Cal = 1 kcal = 4186 J, 1 cal = 4.186 J, 1 Btu = 1054 J.

Without an external agent doing work, heat will always flow from a hotter to a cooler object.  Two objects of different temperature always interact.  There are three different ways for heat to flow from one object to another.  They are conduction, convection, and radiation.

How many pounds does 1.00 quart of mercury weight? its density is 13.6g/mL
Gala2k [10]
Two steps by inspection 1 qt = 0.25 gallons, 13.6 g/mL = 13.6 kg/L

0.25 gallon x 3.785411784 L/gallon x 13.6 kg/L x 1 lb/0.45359237 kg = 28.374 lb.

Hope this Helps!

Which shows the correct order of increasing trophic level, from producer to tertiary consumer?
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Grass, deer, wolf, fungi.

Explanation:

The tropical level of an organism is defined as the position of organism occupied in the food chain. The food chain is starts from tropical level one which is primary producers (such as plants), then move to herbivores (such as deer) in level two, carnivores, (such as wolf) at level three, apex predators in level four (such as lions), and it ends in decomposers such as fungi.

Fungi play important role in ecosystem to help in breakdown of dead organic matter and return nutrients to the soil. Without fungi nutrients cannot cycle in an ecosystem, and causing the breakdown of entire food web.
