Which best describes why NH4+ can form an ionic bond with CL-?

1 answer:

7 0

Ionic bonds consist of a nonmetal and a metal, however, NH4 is a polyatomic, which makes it an exception. It can form ionic salt which is ionic in nature, so combined with a nonmetal, it becomes ionic.

A buffer is composed of nh3 and nh4cl. How would this buffer solution control the ph of a solution when a small amount of a stro

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

According to Le-chatelier principle, equilibrium will shift towards left to minimize concentration of $OH^{-}$ and keep same equilibrium constant

Explanation:

In this buffer following equilibrium exists -

$NH_{3}(aq.)+H_{2}O(l)\rightleftharpoons NH_{4}^{+}(aq.)+OH^{-}(aq.)$

So, $OH^{-}$ is involved in the above equilibrium.

When a strong base is added to this buffer, then concentration of $OH^{-}$ increases. Hence, according to Le-chatelier principle, above equilibrium will shift towards left to minimize concentration of $OH^{-}$ and keep same equilibrium constant.

Therefore excess amount of $OH^{-}$ combines with $NH_{4}^{+}$ to produce ammonia and water. So, effect of addition of strong base on pH of buffer gets minimized.

How much water would need to be added to 1092 mL of a 54.7 M NaCl solution to make a 0.25 M solution?

babunello [35]

Answer:

237.8L of water would need to be added.

Explanation:

The first thing to do is to identify that the equation to be used is M1V1=M2V2. (This equation works because it turns everything into moles which can then be compared).

Then figure out what information you have and what is being found. In this case:

M1 = 54.7 M

V1 = 1092 mL = 1.092 L

M2 = 0.25 M

V2 = unknown

Then solve the equation for whatever you are trying to find.

M1V1=M2V2

V2=M1V1/M2

Now you need to plug everything in.

V2=(54.7M*1.091L)/0.25M

V2=238.93L

That means that the solution needs a volume of 238.7L to gain a molarity of 0.25M but the starting solution already had a volume of 1.092 L meaning that to find the amount of solvent that needs to be added you just subtract the starting volume by the volume that the solution needs to be.

238.93L - 1.091L = 237.8L

Therefore the answer is that 237.8L needs to be added to a 1.092L 54.7M NaCl solution to make the concentration 0.25M.

I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

Why do Group 12 elements have different properties than Group 13 elements?

blagie [28]

Group 12 Elements have two valence electrons while Group 13 Elements have three valence electrons.
Number of valence electrons tend to determine factors like reactivity. So elements with different number of valence electrons will have different properties.
That is why G12 and G13 have different properties
