What kind of reaction is the "water-splitting" reaction

Chemistry
1 answer:
GarryVolchara [31]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Water splitting is the chemical reaction in which water is broken down into oxygen and hydrogen: 2 H2O → 2 H2 + O. Efficient and economical photochemical water splitting would be a technological breakthrough that could underpin a hydrogen economy.

Explanation: 2 H2O → 2 H2 + O.

Explain why the lattice energy of CaSe is approximately 4 times as large as that of KBr. Check all that apply. Check all that ap
Elza [17]

Answer:

According to Coulomb’s law, the Ca and Se ions have 4 times the attractive force (2+ × 2-) than that of the K and Br ions (1+ × 1-).

Explanation:

From Coulomb's law, the attractive force between calcium and selenium ions is four times the attractive force between potassium and bromide ions.

This has something to do with size and magnitude of charge. Calcium ions and selenide ions are smaller and both carry greater charge magnitude than potassium and bromide ions. This paves way for greater electrostatic attraction between them when the distance of the charges apart is minimal. Hence a greater lattice energy.

Explain why you get a basic solution when you dissolve NaF in water.
SashulF [63]

Answer:

<em>That's </em><em>because</em><em> </em><em>in </em><em>water</em><em> </em><em>NaF </em><em>will </em><em>dissolve</em><em> </em><em>to </em><em>produce </em><em>Na</em><em>+</em><em>,</em><em>the </em><em>conjugate </em><em>base </em><em>of </em><em>a </em><em>strong</em><em> </em><em>acid </em><em>which</em><em> </em><em>will </em><em>not </em><em>react </em><em>with </em><em>water.</em><em>h</em><em>o</em><em>w</em><em>e</em><em>v</em><em>e</em><em>r</em><em> </em><em>F- </em><em>will </em><em>behave </em><em>like </em><em>a </em><em>bronsted </em><em>base,</em><em> </em><em>and </em><em>accept</em><em> </em><em>a </em><em>proton </em><em>from </em><em>water.</em><em>t</em><em>h</em><em>i</em><em>s</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>called </em><em>hydrolysis</em><em> </em><em>reaction,</em><em> because</em><em> </em><em>a </em><em>molecule</em><em> </em><em>of </em><em>water </em><em>is </em><em>broken </em><em>up.</em>

<em>a </em><em>conjugate</em><em> base</em><em> </em><em>is </em><em>what </em><em>I </em><em>leftover </em><em>after </em><em>an </em><em>acid </em><em>loses </em><em>a </em><em>hydrogen</em><em> </em><em>ion.</em>

<em>I </em><em>hope</em><em> this</em><em> helps</em>

Please help I don’t have a lot of time left
Harrizon [31]

Answer:

So sorry if I was wrong but I think it's B. Because from the source states,

https://socratic.org/questions/which-group-on-the-periodic-table-is-the-least-reactive-why

"The least reactive elements are those who have a full outermost valence shell ie they have 8 electrons in the outer shell so elements such as helium, neon, radon or the transition elements."

a scuba diver's tank contains 0.29g of oxygen compressed into volume of 2.3L. What is the pressure in the tank at 9C?
viva [34]

Answer:

The answer to your question is P = 0.18 atm

Explanation:

Data

mass of O₂ = 0.29 g

Volume = 2.3 l

Pressure = ?

Temperature = 9°C

constant of ideal gases = 0.082 atm l/mol°K

Process

1.- Convert the mass of O₂ to moles

                16 g of O₂ -------------------- 1 mol

                0.29 g of O₂ ----------------   x

                    x = (0.29 x 1)/16

                    x = 0.29/16

                    x = 0.018 moles

2.- Convert the temperature to °K

Temperature = 9 + 273 = 282°K

3.- Use the ideal gas law ro find the answer

              PV = nRT

-Solve for P

              P = nRT/V

-Substitution

              P = (0.018 x 0.082 x 282) / 2.3

-Simplification

              P = 0.416/2.3

-Result

               P = 0.18 atm
