Diagram is on the picture below.
Answer is: 1).
Sodium chloride is ionic compound and in the water dissociate in sodium cation (positive charge) and chloride anion (negative charge). Water is polar compound, oxagan has negative charge and hydrogen charge. Positive interact witn negative charge and negative with positive charge.

H A and H B are both weak acids in water, and HA is a stronger acid than HB. Which of the following statements is correct? Selec

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

B is a stronger base than A^-, which is a stronger base than H2O, which is a stronger base than CI^-

Explanation:

The general equation for each acid is:

HA(aq) + H2O(ac) ⇄ H3O+(aq) + A-(aq)

HB(aq) + H2O(ac) ⇄ H3O+(aq) + B-(aq)

When these acids dissociate into its ions in water they lose a proton (H+), so they are proton donors (acids) and H2O is the proton acceptor (base). This reaction produces a conjugate acid and a conjugate base.

Conjugate base is what remains of the acid molecule after it loses a proton:

HA = acid A- Conjugate base

HB = acid B- Conjugate base

A conjugate acid is formed when the proton is transferred to the base

H2O = base H3O+ = Conjugate acid

The stronger acid will produce a weaker base. According to this, if HA is a stronger acid than HB, A- would be the weaker base (B- is the stronger base).

Compared with water, A- and B- are stronger bases because when they compete for a proton they have much greater affinity for H+ than water does and the equilibrium position will lie far to the left. (HA and HB are weak acids)

Finally Cl- is the weakest base because it comes after dissociation of HCl which is a strong acid

HCl(aq) + H2O → H3O+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

Note there is no double arrows, equilibrium lies far to the right. A strong acid yields a weak conjugate base it means one that has a low affinity for a proton.

The half-life of radium-226 is 1590 years. if a sample contains 100 mg, how many mg will remain after 1000 years?

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

64.52 mg.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Half life (t½) = 1590 years

Initial amount (N₀) = 100 mg

Time (t) = 1000 years.

Final amount (N) =.?

Next, we shall determine the rate constant (K).

This is illustrated below:

Half life (t½) = 1590 years

Rate/decay constant (K) =?

K = 0.693 / t½

K = 0.693/1590

K = 4.36×10¯⁴ / year.

Finally, we shall determine the amount that will remain after 1000 years as follow:

Half life (t½) = 1590 years

Initial amount (N₀) = 100 mg

Time (t) = 1000 years.

Rate constant = 4.36×10¯⁴ / year.

Final amount (N) =.?

Log (N₀/N) = kt/2.3

Log (100/N) = 4.36×10¯⁴ × 1000/2.3

Log (100/N) = 0.436/2.3

Log (100/N) = 0.1896

Take the antilog

100/N = antilog (0.1896)

100/N = 1.55

Cross multiply

N x 1.55 = 100

Divide both side by 1.55

N = 100/1.55

N = 64.52 mg

Therefore, the amount that remained after 1000 years is 64.52 mg

How are stars and comets different?

ehidna [41]

The answer is letter C.

Because we classify something as a star when it is: a large ball of gas that undergoes nuclear fusion. Given this definition, a comet is not a star. A comet is a ball of ice and dirt hurtling through space, it shines only because it reflects ligh
