Explanation:

The kinetic theory of gases is basically used to explain the behavior of gases.

Some of the assumptions of the theory is as follow:

A gas is composed of large number of identical molecules at different speeds.
The space occupied by the gas molecules themselves are negligible compared to the volume of the space they occupy.
The molecules are independent of each other and the force of attraction and repulsion between them are negligible.
The molecules collide elastically with one another and with the walls of the container.
The temperature of gas is a measure of their average kinetic energy.

Hcl and nh3 react to form a white solid, nh4cl. if cotton plugs saturated with aqueous solutions of each are placed at the ends

IgorLugansk [536]

24.4 cm.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

HCl and NH₃ reacts to form NH₄Cl immediately after coming into contact. Where NH₄Cl is found is the place the two gases ran into each other. To figure out where the two gases came into contact, you'll need to know how fast they move relative to each other.

The speed of a HCl or NH₃ molecule depends on its kinetic energy.

$E_\text{k} = 1/2 \; m \cdot v^{2}$

Where

$E_\text{k}$ is the kinetic energy of the molecule,
$m$ its mass, and
$v^{2}$ the square of its speed.

Besides, the kinetic theory of gases suggests that for an ideal gas,

$E_\text{k} \propto T$

where $\text{T}$ its temperature in degrees kelvins. The two quantities are directly proportional to each other. In other words, the average kinetic energy of molecules shall be the same for any ideal gas at the same temperature. So is the case for HCl and NH₃

$E_\text{k} (\text{HCl}) = E_\text{k} (\text{NH}_3)$

$m(\text{HCl}) \cdot v^{2}(\text{HCl}) = E_\text{k} (\text{HCl}) = E_\text{k} (\text{NH}_3) = m(\text{NH}_3) \cdot v^{2}(\text{NH}_3)$

Where

$m(\text{HCl})$ , $v(\text{HCl})$ , and $E_\text{k}(\text{NH_3})$ the mass, speed, and kinetic energy of an HCl molecule;
$m(\text{NH}_3)$ , $v(\text{NH}_3)$ , and $E_\text{k}(\text{NH}_3)$ the mass, speed, and kinetic energy of a NH₃ molecule.

The ratio between the mass of an HCl molecule and a NH₃ molecule equals to the ratio between their molar mass. HCl has a molar mass of 35.45; NH₃ has a molar mass of 17.03. As a result, $m(\text{HCl}) = 36.45 / 17.03 \; m(\text{NH}_3)$ . Therefore:

$36.45 /17.03\; m(\text{NH}_3) \cdot v^{2}(\text{HCl}) = m(\text{HCl}) \cdot v^{2}(\text{HCl}) = m(\text{NH}_3) \cdot v^{2}(\text{NH}_3)$

$36.45 /17.03\; v^{2}(\text{HCl}) = v^{2}(\text{NH}_3)$

$\sqrt{36.45 /17.03}\; v(\text{HCl}) = v(\text{NH}_3)$

The average speed NH₃ molecules would be $\sqrt{36.45/17.03} \approx 1.463$ if the average speed of HCl molecules $v(\text{HCl})$ is 1.

$\text{Time before the two gases meet} = \frac{\text{Length of the Tube}}{v(\text{HCl}) + v(\text{NH}_3)}$

$\text{Distance from the HCl end} = v(\text{HCl}) \times \text{Time before the two gases meet}\\\phantom{\text{Distance from the HCl end}} = v(\text{HCl}) \times \frac{ \text{Length of the Tube}}{v(\text{HCl}) + v(\text{NH}_3)}\\\phantom{\text{Distance from the HCl end}} = \frac{v(\text{HCl})}{v(\text{HCl}) + v(\text{NH}_3)} \times \text{Length of the Tube}\\\phantom{\text{Distance from the HCl end}} = \frac{1}{1 + 1.463} \times 60.0\; \text{cm} \\\phantom{\text{Distance from the HCl end}} = 24.4 \; \text{cm}$

What feature must a molecule or ion have in order to act as a Lewis base? A Lewis acid? Explain the roles of these features.

Dennis_Churaev [7]

What is a Lewis acid-base reaction?

In the Lewis theory of acid-base reactions, bases donate pairs of electrons and acids accept pairs of electrons.

A Lewis acid is therefore any substance, such as the H+ ion, that can accept a pair of nonbonding electrons. In other words, a Lewis acid is an electron-pair acceptor.

A Lewis base is any substance, such as the OH- ion, that can donate a pair of nonbonding electrons. A Lewis base is therefore an electron-pair donor.

The Lewis theory suggests that acids react with bases to share a pair of electrons, with no change in the oxidation numbers of any atoms.

At a certain temperature, the solubility of strontium arsenate, sr3(aso4)2, is 0.0650 g/l. what is the ksp of this salt at this

Luba_88 [7]

Answer is: Ksp for strontium arsenate is 2.69·10⁻¹⁸.
Balanced chemical reaction (dissociation):
Sr₃(AsO₄)₂(s) → 3Sr²⁺(aq) + AsO₄³⁻(aq).
s(Sr₃(AsO₄)₂) = 0.0650 g/L.
s(Sr₃(AsO₄)₂) = 0.0650 g/L ÷ 540.7 g/mol = 1.2·10⁻⁴ mol/L.
s(Sr²⁺) = 3s(Sr₃(AsO₄)₂).
s(AsO₄³⁻) = 2s(Sr₃(AsO₄)₂).
Ksp = s(Sr²⁺)³ · s(AsO₄³⁻)².
Ksp = (3s)³ · (2s)².
Ksp = 108s⁵.
Ksp = 108 · (1.2·10⁻⁴ mol/L)⁵ = 2.69·10⁻¹⁸.
