Why do the pH scale generally range from 0 to 14 in aqueous solution?

Chemistry
1 answer:
zalisa [80]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

In aqueous solution the pH scale varies from 0 to 14, which indicates this concentration of hydrogen. Solutions with pH less than 7 are acidic (the value of the exponent of the concentration is higher, because there are more ions in the solution) and alkaline (basic) those with a pH higher than 7. If the solvent is pure water, the pH = 7 indicates neutrality of the solution

Explanation:

PH is a measure of how acidic or basic a liquid is. Specifically, from a dissolution. The acidity of a solution is essentially due to the concentration of hydrogen ions dissolved in it. In reality, the ions are not found alone, but are in the form of hydronium ions consisting of one oxygen molecule and three positively charged hydrogen. PH precisely measures this concentration. And to do it, we can use simple and very visual methods.

Electronegativity is a measure of an atom’s affinity for electrons. Which of the following statements is true? Electronegativity
jekas [21]

Answer: Electronegativity increases as the size of an atom decrease.

Explanation: Electronegativity is the measure of the ability of an atom in a bond to attract electrons to itself.

Electronegativity increases across a period and decreases down a group.

Towards the left of the table, valence shells are less than half full, so these atoms (metals) tend

to lose electrons and have low electronegativity. Towards the right of the table, valence shells are more than half full, so these atoms (nonmetals) tend to gain electrons and have high electronegativity.

Down a group, the number of energy levels (n) increases, and so does the distance between the nucleus and the outermost orbital. The increased distance and the increased shielding weaken the nuclear attraction, and so an atom can’t attract electrons as strongly.

Name a possible product of this reaction in the presence of ether and AlCl3: methylbenzene + 1-chlorodecane.a. 1-methyl-2-decylb
Vikki [24]

Answer:

None of these

Explanation:

Friedel–Craft reaction is a reaction involves the attachment of substituents to the benzene ring.

Mechanism of the reaction of methylbenzene with 1-chlorodecane in the presence of ether and aluminum chloride :

Step -1 : Generation of stable carbocation.

Aluminium chloride acts as Lewis acid which removes the chloride ion from the alkyl halide forming carbocation. The primary carbocation thus formed gets rearranged to secondary primary carbocation which is more stable due to hyperconjugation.

Step-2: Attack of the ring to the carbocation

The pi electrons of the ring behave as a nucleophile and attacks the carbocation. Since, the group attached on the benzene is methyl (+R effect) , the attack is from the ortho and the para positions. Para product is more stable due to less steric hinderance.

The product formed is shown in mechanism does not mention in any of the options.

So, None of these is the answer

A 32.8 g sample of gas occupies 22.414 L at STP. What is the molecular weight of this gas?
olasank [31]

Answer:

32.8g/mole

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of sample of gas = 32.8g

Volume  = 22.4L

Unknown:

Molecular weight  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem we must understand that at rtp;

             1 mole of gas occupies a volume of 22.4L

 

Number of mole of the gas  = 1 mole

 Now;

   Mass  = number of moles x molecular weight

    molecular weight  = \frac{mass}{molecular weight}    = \frac{32.8g}{1mole }      = 32.8g/mole
