Answer:

A. buoyant force is equal to the weight of the object

Explanation:

An object floats when the buoyancy is equal to the weight of the object. According to Archimedes Principle for flotation, the weight of the object should be equal to the weight of the water displaced by the submerged part of the object. If the weight of the object is greater than the weight of the water displaced by the submerged part of the object, it will sink.

Predict the products of La(s) + O2(aq) ->

mina [271]

Answer:

i. La (s) + O2 (g) => LaO2 (s)

ii. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O (s)

III. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O3 (s)

Explanation:

Hello there!

When you are given such a problem for completing the chemical equations, what you have to understand is that metals are found in groups I, II and III. While Oxygen is a group VI element.

From the above question I have considered that my La(s), solid is either Sodium (Na) - group I, Magnesium - group II and Aluminum - group III.

In a reaction, there is exchange of electrons given by their oxidation numbers (I, II and III - for our metals above)

The chemical equations are thus;

i. Na (s) + O2 (g) => NaO (s)

ii. Mg (s) + O2 (g) => Mg2O (s)

iii. Al (s) + O2 (g) => Al2O3 (s)

Relate this to the problem and it will be;

i. La (s) + O2 (g) => LaO2 (s)

ii. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O (s)

III. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O3 (s)

I hope this helps you to understand better. Enjoy your studies

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The basic oxide is an oxide-forming a base solution.

These oxides are mainly from group 1 alkaline and group 2-alkaline earth

If this oxide is dissolved in water it will form an alkaline solution

LO + H₂O --> L(OH)₂ ---> alkaline earth

L₂O + H₂O --> LOH --> alkaline

So the basic oxides : Na₂O and MgO

Na₂O + H₂O --> NaOH (sodium hydroxide, strong base)

MgO + H₂O --> Mg(OH)₂ (magnesium hydroxide, strong base)

The aqueous solution of CO₂ , obtained by dissolving CO₂ in water

CO₂ + H₂O --> H₂CO₃ (carbonic acid)

In general, basic oxide is obtained from metal oxide, while acid oxide is obtained from non-metal oxide

A solution is made by dissolving 0.0150 mol of HF in enough water to make 1.00 L of solution. At 26 °C, the osmotic pressure of

Alex777 [14]

Given:
M = 0.0150 mol/L HF solution
T = 26°C = 299.15 K
π = 0.449 atm

Required:
percent ionization

Solution:
First, we get the van't Hoff factor using this equation:
π = i MRT
0.449 atm = i (0.0150 mol/L) (0.08206 L atm / mol K) (299.15 K)
i = 1.219367

Next, calculate the concentration of the ions and the acid.
We let x = [H+] = [F-]
[HF] = 0.0150 - x

Adding all the concentration and equating to iM
x +x + 0.0150 - x = 1.219367 (0.0150)
x = 3.2905 x 10^-3

percent dissociation = (x/M) (100) = (3.2905 x 10-3/0.0150) (100) = 21.94%

Also,
percent dissociation = (i -1) (100) = (1.219367 * 1) (100) = 21.94%

Why do neutral atoms form ions?

Marina86 [1]

Since they can still be unstable...nuetral atoms have the same amount of protons to electrons but to be stable they need to fill up there outer shell by gaining or losing electrons
