The correct option is this: SPECIFIC HEAT CAPACITY IS AN INTENSIVE PROPERTY AND DOES NOT DEPEND ON SAMPLE SIZE.

Generally, all the properties of matters can be divided into two classes, these are intensive and extensive properties. Intensive properties are those properties that are not determined by the quantity of the material that is present or available. Examples of intensive properties are colour, density and specific heat capacity. For instance, whether you have a bucket of water or a cup of water, the quantity does not matter, the colour of water will always remain the same. Extensive properties in contrast, are those properties that depend on the quantity of material that is available. Examples are mass, heat capacity and volume.

3.8mL of 0.42 phosphoric acid is required.

Reaction

2H3PO4 + 3CaCL3 → Ca3(PO)4 + 6HCl

moles CaCl2 =0.16 mol/L x0.010 L = 0.0016 mol

moles of H3Po4

= 0.0016mol of CaCl2 x 2 mole of H3PO4/3mole of CaCl2

= 0.00106 mol

V of H3PO4 = 0.0016/0.42 = 0.0038L = 3.8mL

V of H3PO4=3.8mL

Which of the following would have the highest buffer capacity?
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

1.25 M HCO₃⁻ / 1.25 M CO₃²⁻

Explanation:

Buffer capacity refers to the amount of a strong acid or base required per liter of the buffer to change its pH by one. This amount is directly related to the concentration of the conjugate acid-base pair in the buffer since the buffer pair neutralizes the strong acid or base.

Thus, the highest buffer capacity is found in the solution that has the highest concentration of the conjugate acid-base pair, which is 1.25 M HCO₃⁻ / 1.25 M CO₃²⁻ .

1. When two atoms with different electronegativities are bonded together, a bond dipole exists. These are displayed with an arro
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

In order: LOWER, HIGHER, NEGATIVE, POSITIVE, INCREASE

Explanation:

First you must consider the definition of electronegativity.

All in all, electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract electrons to itself. For this explanation, let's just consider the groups 1, 2, 13-17, and the noble gases of the periodic table. Furthermore, let's also consider the octet rule. The octet rule says that the last orbit of an atom tends to have 8 electrons in order to be stable.

If you take an atom like Sodium (Na) and search its distribution of electrons by levels, you'll see these number in the last two orbits: 8.1

The penultimate orbit has 8 electrons and the last one has only 1. Therefore, in order to futfill the octet rule what do you think it's easier? Losing the last electron and leaving the 8 electrones of the penultimate orbit as last orbit? Or maybe taking 7 electrons for the last orbit and, hence, futfilling the octet? Well, the answer is the first case.

The more you move from group to group (i.e, rightwards in the periodic table), more electrons will have in their last orbit.

So, in order to respond your question: Yes you should display it like this:

A --> B

Consider A and B two random atoms, for which B's electronegativity is higher than A's. This arrow shows the tendency of the electron flow.

As electrons go to the more electronegative atom, the whole electronic ''cloud'' will tend to be closer to B, because this atom is more electronegative. Hence, there will be a partial (not fixed) negative charge on B rather than on A. This is due to B's high electronegativity. This means that the negative charge will spend more time on B rather than on A, this is what partial negative charge means.

The higher the electronegativity is, the higher the magnitudes of the partial charges --> Therefore, these partial charges are increased and sometimes it might lead to the chemical bond breakage.
