Answer:

Explanation:

To determine whether a substance is an acid or a base, count the hydrogens on each substance before and after the reaction. If the number of hydrogens has decreased that substance is the acid (donates hydrogen ions). If the number of hydrogens has increased that substance is the base (accepts hydrogen ions).

The temperature and number of moles of a gas are held constant. Which of the following is true for the pressure of the gas?

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

Pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of gas.

Explanation:

According to Boyle's law,

The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure applied on gas at constant volume and number of moles of gas.

Mathematical expression:

P ∝ 1/ V

P = K/V

PV = K

when volume is changed from V1 to V2 and pressure from P1 to P2 then expression will be.

P1V1 = K P2V2 = K

P1V1 = P2V2

2. What ions are present in what ratio in a solution of aqueous calcium chloride?

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

$\mathrm{Ca}^{2+} \text { and } \mathrm{Cl} \text { - ions are present in } 1: 2 \text { ratio in a solution of aqueous calcium chloride. }$

Explanation:

Here in Calcium Chloride ionic bond is present in between calcium and chlorine atoms. As we know according to Octet rule calcium have two excess atoms and for matching nearest noble gas electronic configuration. It donate two electrons to gain more stability and form $\mathrm{Ca}^{2+}$ , while chlorine is deficient from one electron to meet nearest noble gas electronic configuration therefore two chlorine atoms accept excess electron from calcium individually and form two $\mathrm{Cl}^{-}$ ions.

$\text { Equation is as follows: } \mathrm{Ca}^{2+}+2 \mathrm{Cl}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{CaCl}_{2}$

Hence aqueous solution of calcium chloride breaks the ionic bond pairing in one $\mathrm{Ca}^{2+}$ and two $\mathrm{Cl}^{-}$ ions: $\mathrm{CaCl}_{2} \longrightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \quad \mathrm{Ca}^{2+}(\mathrm{ag})+2 \mathrm{Cl}(\mathrm{ag})$

8. Calculate the number of moles of eachsubstance.a. 5.45 x 1026 particles of methane, CH4

Klio2033 [76]

ANSWER

The number of moles of methane is 905.32 moles

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given information

The number of particles of methane = 5.45 x 10^26 particles

Let x represents the number of moles of methane

To calculate the number of moles, we will be using the below formula

$\text{Number of particles = number of moles x Avogadro's constant}$

Recall that, the Avogadro's constant is given as

$6.02\cdot10^{23}$ $\begin{gathered} 5.45\cdot10^{26}\text{ = x }\cdot\text{ 6.02 }\cdot10^{23} \\ \text{Divide both sides by 6.02 }\cdot10^{23} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{5.45\cdot10^{26}}{6.02\cdot10^{23}} \\ x\text{ = }\frac{5.45}{6.02}\cdot10^{26\text{ - 23}} \\ x\text{ = 0.9053 }\cdot10^3 \\ x\text{ = 905.32 moles} \end{gathered}$

Therefore, the number of moles of methane is 905.32 moles
