Answer:
            KNO₃ is an electrolyte.

Explanation:
                   Electrolyte is any specie which when dissolved in water produces a cation and anoin. Electrolytes has the ability to conduct electricity. In given options O₂, Xe and C₃H₈ are non electrolytes because they cannot dissociate into cation and an anion due to their covalent bonds or monoatomic nature. The dissociation of Potassium Nitrate is as follow,

                                       KNO₃    →   K⁺ ₍aq₎  +  NO₃⁻ ₍aq₎

If a 125 gms of radioactive element has a half life of 60 min how many half lives will it go through to become 3.90625 gms
Sonja [21]

Answer:

  • 5

Explanation:

Let the number of half lives be x

<u>Solve this equation to find the value of x:</u>

  • 125*(1/2)ˣ = 3.90625
  • (0.5)ˣ = 3.90625 / 125
  • (0.5)ˣ = 0.03125
  • log (0.5)ˣ  = log 0.03125
  • x =  log 0.03125 / log 0.5
  • x = 5

is the approximate relation celsius = 1/2 fahrenheit a better approximation at higher or lower temperatures?
kirill115 [55]

Answer : The approximate relation Celsius = 1/2 Fahrenheit is a better approximation at higher temperatures

Explanation :

The formula for Celsius to Fahrenheit conversion is

C = (F-32) \times \frac{5}{9}

At lower temperature the value that needs to be subtracted (32) is large enough as a result the approximation "celsius = 1/2 fahrenheit " does not seem valid.

For example, 50 F is 10°C.

(50 - 32) \times \frac{5}{9} = 10 C

This is almost 1/5 of Fahrenheit temperature.

But at higher temperatures , the value becomes insignificant and also the ratio  5/9 tend to be equal to 0.5.

For example, 2000 F is 1093°C

(2000 - 32) \times \frac{5}{9} = 1093 C

This is almost half of Fahrenheit temperature.

Therefore , the approximate relation Celsius = 1/2 Fahrenheit is a better approximation at higher temperatures

When 500.0 g of water is decomposed by electrolysis and the yield of hydrogen is only 75.3%, how much hydrogen chloride can be m
Evgen [1.6K]

The amount of hydrogen chloride that can be made is 1064 g

Why?

The two reactions are:

2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂ 75.3 % yield

H₂ + Cl₂ → 2HCl 69.8% yield

We have to apply a big conversion factor to go from grams of water (The limiting reactant), to grams of HCl, the final product. We have to be very careful with the coefficients and percentage yields!

500.0gH_2O*\frac{1moleH_2O}{18.01 gH_2O}*\frac{2 moles H_2}{2 moles H_2O}*\frac{2.015g H_2}{1 mole H_2}*\frac{75.3 actual g}{100 theoretical g}=42.12 g H_2

42.12H_2*\frac{1 mole H_2}{2.015gH_2}*\frac{2 moles HCl}{1 mole H_2}*\frac{36.46g}{1 mole HCl}*\frac{69.8 actualg}{100 theoreticalg} =1064gHCl

Have a nice day!
