ANEK [815]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

c.) HNO₃ & NaNO₃

Explanation:

A buffer system has 2 components:

  • A weak acid and its conjugate base or
  • A weak base and its conjugate acid

<em>Which one of the following combinations cannot function as a buffer solution? </em>

<em> a.) HCN & KCN.</em> YES. HCN is a weak acid and CN⁻ (coming from KCN)  its conjugate base.

<em> b.) NH₃ & (NH₄)₂SO₄.</em> YES. NH₃ is a weak base and NH₄⁺ (coming from (NH₄)₂SO₄) its conjugate acid.

<em> c.) HNO₃ & NaNO₃.</em> NO. HNO₃ is a strong acid.

<em>d.) HF & NaF.</em> YES. HF is a weak acid and F⁻ (coming from NaF)  its conjugate base.

<em> e.) HNO₂ & NaNO₂.</em> YES. HNO₂ is a weak acid and NO₂⁻ (coming from NaNO₂)  its conjugate base.

Which condition increases the number of collisions between reactant molecules in a given volume?
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Increasing Surface Area

Explanation:

A greater surface area (meaning more, smaller particles) allows for more opportunity for particles to collide.  On the other hand, decreasing temperature and removing a catalyst would only decrease the number of collisions, and the clumping option doesn't make much sense.  Hope this helps!

Question 2
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

1-Pentene

Explanation:

If we look at all the options listed, we will notice that the rate of reaction of bromine with each one differs significantly.

For 1-pentene, addition of bromine across the double bond is a relatively fast process. It is usually used as a test for unsaturation. Bromine water is easily decolorized by alkenes.

Cyclohexane, heptane are alkanes. They can only react with chlorine in the presence of sunlight. This is a substitution reaction. It does not occur easily. A certain quantum of light is required for the reaction to occur.

For benzene, bromine can only react with it by electrophilic substitution in which the benzene ring is retained. A Lewis acid is often required for the reaction to occur and it doesn't occur easily.
