What are facts or characteristics about acid?

1 answer:

8 0

Acids are ionic compounds (a compound with a positive or negative charge) that break apart in water to form hydrogen ion (H+). Characteristics of acid: Acid taste sour. Acids also react strongly to metals, generally with the evolution of hydrogen gas (Eg: Zn + HCI). Also strong acids are dangerous and can burn your skin off. Acids change litmus red. Acids become less acidic when mixed with bases. An acid has Ph scale of under 7.

Define density of a substance.

ozzi

Answer:

density, mass of a unit volume of a material substance. The formula for density is d = M/V, where d is density, M is mass, and V is volume. Density is commonly expressed in units of grams per cubic centimetre. ... Density can also be expressed as kilograms per cubic metre (in metre-kilogram-second or SI units).

A 1.800-g sample of solid phenol (C6H5OH(s)) was burned in a bomb calorimeter whose total heat capacity is 11.66 kJ/?C. The temp

vichka [17]

Answer:

The balanced chemical equation:

$C_6H_5OH(s)+7O_2(g)\rightarrow 6CO_2(g)+3H_2O(g)$

Heat of combustion per gram of phenol is 32.454 kJ/g

Heat of combustion per gram of phenol is 3,050 kJ/mol

Explanation:

$C_6H_5OH(s)+7O_2(g)\rightarrow 6CO_2(g)+3H_2O(g)$

Heat capacity of calorimeter = C = 11.66 kJ/°C

Initial temperature of the calorimeter = $T_1= 21.36^oC$

Final temperature of the calorimeter = $T_2= 26.37^oC$

Heat absorbed by calorimeter = Q

$Q=C\times \Delta T$

Heat released during reaction = Q'

Q' = -Q ( law of conservation of energy)

Energy released on combustion of 1.800 grams of phenol = Q' = -(58.4166 kJ)

Heat of combustion per gram of phenol:

$\frac{Q'}{1.800 g}=\frac{-58.4166 kJ}{1.800 g}=32.454 kJ/g$

Molar mass of phenol = 94 g/mol

Heat of combustion per gram of phenol:

$\frac{Q'}{\frac{1.800 g}{94 g/mol}}=\frac{-58.4166 kJ\times 94 g/mol}{1.800 g}=3,050 kJ/mol$

Which two substances are covalent compounds? * C6H12O6(s) and KI(s) C6H12O6(s) and HCl(g) KI(s) and NaCl(s) NaCl(s) and HCl(g)

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A covalent compound is defined as the compound in which sharing of electrons take place between the combining atoms. Generally, when two or more non-metals chemically combine together the it will lead to the formation of a covalent compound.

For example, $C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}$ and HCl is also a covalent compound.

And, a compound in which transfer of electrons occur between the combining atoms is known as an ionic compound. Whenever, a metal chemically combines with a non-metal then it will always lead to the formation of an ionic compound.

For example, KI is an ionic compound.

Thus, we can conclude that $C_{6}H_{12}O_{6}$ and HCl are the two substances which are covalent compounds.
