Which of these phrases accurately describe disproportionation? Check all that apply. A single compound reacts with itself. A sin

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

A single compound reacts with itself.

Explanation:

Disproportionation is a chemical reaction,most times a redox reaction, in which a molecule is transformed into two or more dissimilar products. In a disproportionation reaction, the species are simultaneously oxidized and reduced to form at least two different products.

A typical example of a specie that disproportionate is the copper I ion as shown below;

2Cu^+(aq) ------> Cu(s) + Cu^2+(aq)

The two oxidation states of copper formed in the disproportionation are Cu(0) and copper (II).

12. Which compound can act as both a BrønstedLowry

oksian1 [2.3K]

1) The compound which can act as a Bronsted-Lowry acid and a Bronsted-Lowry base is definitely water - H2O. Remember that water is amphoteric which means it can either accept protons or donate them, so it is the most proper option among other represented. Here are examples of both base and acid with water : HCl+H20=H30+Cl ; NH3+H2O=NH4+OH

2) The acids in this equilibrium reaction CN– + H2O HCN + OH. Acid species always donate H+ to the species with which they react. In the second option you can see how H2O donates an H+ to CN-. If the reaction gets reversed we will obtain HCN that donates an H+ to OH that shows that it is an acid.

3) The products of self-ionization of water are OH⁻ and H₃O⁺. Self-ionization is an ionization reaction during which H2O deprotonates its hydrogen atoms to become a hydroxide ion -- OH−. After this process OH- protonates another water molecule forming H3O+.

4) The type of solution which is one with a pH of 8 is acidic. Here is a little table that can be a prompt for you if you ever come across such tasks - ph : 7 is neutral. pH lower than 7 are acidic, and pH higher than 7 basic ones.

5) The acid dissociation constant for an acid dissolved in water is equal to the equilibrium constant. I consider this option correct because we can obtan Kw only when dealing with Kb, and we can conclude that the hydrolysis constant of the conujugate base.

6) A 0.12 M solution of an acid that ionizes only slightly in solution would be termed dilute and weak. You can determine it depending on its concentration. Such value as 0.12M usually defined as a dilute solution of a weak acid due to the fact that acid represents its partial ionization which is a direct characteristic of a weak acid.

7) To solve this task we should appeal to Henry's law that says the solubility of a gaz is proportional to its partial pressure. And according to this we can understand that 202kPa is the half of 404kPa which means that the needed solubility must be divided by 2 7.5/2=3.75 g/L and that's all.

8) I think that the most important points which best show how the addition of a solute affects the boiling point, the freezing
point, and the vapor pressure of the solvent are : BOILING: additional attractive forces can only exist between solute and solvent and in order to boil they must be overcome for the solution;we should add KE to overcome the forces. FREEZING : to freeze we have to withdrawn KE as the solute particles are surrounded by solvent molecules. VAPOR : WHen solvent shells are being formed the solute particles reduces the number of solvent particles that have sufficient KE to vaporize.

9) $[H+][OH-]= Kw = 1.0 * 10^-14$
$[H+]= Kw/ [OH-]= 1.0x 10^-14 / 1 x 10^-11 =1 x 10^-3 mol/L 

pH = - log [H+]= - log 1 x 10^-3 = 3$
Since we got Ph of 3 in a result we can define solution as an acidic one, as I mentioned before.

10) Since the formula of the given acid is HA it undergoes like that : HA<=> H+ + A- .
ka = [H][A] / [HA].
Now we have only [H+] and to go further you need to write electroneutrality equation for the reaction :
[H+] = [OH-] + [A-] (since [H]>>>[OH]), then
[H+] = [A-]
Then mass balance equation :
Ct = 0.5M = [A-] + [HA]
[HA] = 0.5 - [A-] = 0.5 - [H+]
Finally here is what we have done and get :
$ka = [H]^2 / (0.5 - [H+]) 
$
$ka = 0.0001*0.0001/(0.5-0.0001) = 2.00x10^-8$

11) The main points that are common for acids : they form Hydrogen ions when dissloved in water, - Ex. Vinegar and Lemon, Ph >7, they have Increased hydrogen ions (H+). The facts about bases : they reduce the concentration of hydgoren ions in a solution which is opposite to asids,- Ex. Antiacid,and Ammonia ,Ph valuse above 7, they form hydrogen (OH-).
- The common points of both acids and bases : Hydrogen ions ,
both not neutral and water based.

A ball with a density of 1100 kg/m3 is submerged in two liquids: water (ρ = 1000 kg/m3) and honey (ρ = 1400 kg/m3). What will th

Lapatulllka [165]

Hello!

So, we are given a ball with a density of 1100 kg/m³, and two liquids: water (1000 kg/m³) and honey (1400 kg/m³). Our goal is to determine if the ball will sink or float in the given liquids.

Let's take two common substances: water and ice. Water has a density of 1000 kg/m³ and ice has a density of about 917 kg/m³. You would notice that the ice is always floating when you put ice and water together. This would occur if you have other substances.

Here's what you should know:

If the density of an object is greater than the liquid it is in, then that object will sink.
If the density of an object is less than the liquid it is in, then that object will float.

Since the ball has a density of 1100 kg/m³, and water's density is 1000 kg/m³, then the ball will sink. If the ball is placed in honey, then it will float because the density of honey (1400 kg/m³) is greater than the ball's density.

Therefore, objects with a greater density than the surrounding liquid sink, while objects with a smaller density than the surrounding liquid float, which is the fourth choice.
