When cobalt(II) chloride is added to pure water, the Co2+ ions are either hydrated to give a pink color, or combined with chlori

de ion to give a blue color, reaching an equilibrium shown
here: Co(H2O)62+ + 4Cl- ↔ CoCl42- + 6H2O

If the forward reaction is exothermic, which statement below describes the change that the system will undergo if the temperature of the solution decreases.

(A) solution will change color
(B) not enough info is given
(C) solution will turn more pink
(D) solution will turn more blue

Answer:

(C) solution will turn more pink

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction increases the temperature of the system and an endothermic reaction decreases the temperature.

In an equilibrium, if the forward reaction is exothermic, the reverse reaction is endothermic. Therefore, the decrease of temperature inicates that the reverse reaction is favored.

The reverse reaction in the example produces the hydrated Co²⁺, which gives a pink color to the solution. Therefore, solution will turn more pink.

Answer:

yes, in certain cases

there are different types of bondings between atoms

and in some they lend electrons to make their atom stable this type of bonding is called ionic bonding

and in covalent bond the atoms share their electrons

Answer:

C. It decreases by a factor of 4

Explanation:

F1 = kq1*q2/r²

F2 = kq1*q2/(2r)² = kq1*q2/(4r²) = kq1*q2/(r²*4)  = F1/4

What makes slime, slime?
Naya [18.7K]
Slime flows like a liquid, but unlike familiar liquids (e.g., oil, water), its ability to flow, or viscosity, is not constant. So it's a fluid, but not a regular liquid. Scientists call a material that changes viscosity a non-Newtonian fluid. The technical explanation is that slime is a fluid that changes its ability to resist deformation according to shear or tensile stress.

What this means is, when you pour slime or let it ooze through your fingers, it has a low viscosity and flows like a thick liquid. When you squeeze a non-Newtonian slime, like oobleck, or pound it with your fist, it feels hard, like a wet solid. This is because applying stress squeezes the particles in the slime together, making it hard for them to slide against each other.

Most types of slime are also examples of polymers. Polymers are molecules made by linking together chains of subunits.


The specifics of how a type of slime works depends on its chemical composition, but the basic explanation is that chemicals are mixed to form polymers. The polymers act as a net, with molecules sliding against each other.


Two solutions are combined to make classic slime. One is diluted school glue, or polyvinyl alcohol in water. The other solution is borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) in water.
Borax dissolves in water into sodium ions, Na+, and tetraborate ions.
The tetraborate ions react with water to produce the OH- ion and boric acid:
B4O72-(aq) + 7 H2O <—> 4 H3BO3(aq) + 2 OH-(aq)
Boric acid reacts with water to form borate ions:
H3BO3(aq) + 2 H2O <— > B(OH)4-(aq) + H3O+(aq)
Hydrogen bonds form between the borate ion and the OH groups of the polyvinyl alcohol molecules from the glue, linking them together to form a new polymer: slime.
