Bases are the substances when in aqeous form dissociate in OH ions.
Alkalis are the bases that can be dissolved in water.

Suppose you want to separate a mixture of the following compounds: salicylic acid, 4-ethylphenol, p-aminoacetophenone, and napth
Elodia [21]

Answer:

The procedure you will use in this exercise exploits the difference in acidity and solubility just described.

(a) you will dissolve your unknown in ethyl acetate (an organic solvent). All of the possible compounds are soluble in ethyl acetate.

(b) you will extract with sodium bicarbonate to remove any carboxylic acid that is present.

(c) you will extract with sodium hydroxide to remove any phenol that is present.

(d) you will acidify both of the resulting aqueous solutions to cause any compounds that were extracted to precipitate.

Ag2S + Al(s) = Al2S3 + Ag(s) (unbalanced)
Dovator [93]

Answer:

1. 0.97 V

2. Al_(_s_)/Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)~//~Ag^+~_(_a_q_)/Ag_(_s_)

Explanation:

In this case, we can start with the <u>half-reactions</u>:

Ag^+~_(_a_q_)->~Ag_(_s_)

Al_(_s_)~->~Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)

With this in mind we can <u>add the electrons</u>:

Ag^+~_(_a_q_)+~e^-~->~Ag_(_s_)  <u>Reduction</u>

Al_(_s_)~->~Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)+~3e^-~ <u>Oxidation</u>

The reduction potential values for each half-reaction are:

Ag_2S~+~e^-~->~Ag_(_s_)~+~S^-^2~_(_a_q_) - 0.69 V

Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)+~2e^-~->~Al_(_s_) -1.66 V

In the aluminum half-reaction, we have an oxidation reaction, therefore we have to <u>flip</u> the reduction potential value:

Al_(_s_)~->~Al^+^3~+~2e^-~ +1.66 V

Finally, to calculate the overall potential we have to <u>add</u> the two values:

1.66 V - 0.69 V = <u>0.97 V</u>

For the second question, we have to keep in mind that in the cell notation we put the anode (the oxidation half-reaction) in the left and the cathode (the reduction half-reaction) in the right. Additionally, we have to use "//" for the salt bridge, therefore:

Al_(_s_)/Al^+^3~_(_a_q_)~//~Ag^+~_(_a_q_)/~Ag_(_s_)

I hope it helps!

What is the conjugate acid in the following equation:
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

HNO₂

Explanation:

An acid is a proton donor; a base is a proton acceptor.

Thus, NO₂⁻ is the base, because it accepts a proton from the water.

H₂O is the acid, because it donates a proton to the nitrite ion.

The conjugate base is what's left after the acid has given up its proton.

The conjugate acid is what's formed when the base has accepted a proton.

NO₂⁻/HNO₂ make one conjugate acid/base pair, and H₂O/OH⁻ are the other conjugate acid/base pair.

NO₂⁻ + H₂O ⇌ HNO₂ + OH⁻

base     acid     conj.      conj.

                        acid       base

Ice cream is made by freezing a liquid mixture that, as a first approximation, can be considered a solution of sucrose in water.
hjlf

Answer:

Freezing point is -2.81°C

Explanation:

34g/342gmol^-1 = 0.0994mol

n = m/mr

Molarity= 0.994/ 0.66 = 1.51M

◇T = -i × m ×Kf

Where ◇T is freezing depression

i= Vant Hoff factor

m = molarity

Kf = freezing content = 1.

860kgmol^-1

◇T =-1 × 1.51 × 1.860 = - 2.81°C
