Answer:
The balanced chemical equation: NH₃ + 2 HF → NH₄⁺ + HF₂⁻
Explanation:
According to the Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, the acid- base reaction is a type of chemical reaction between the acid and base to give a conjugate acid and a conjugate base.
In this reaction, a Brønsted–Lowry acid loses a proton to form a conjugate base. Whereas, a Brønsted–Lowry base accepts a proton to form a conjugate acid.
Acid + Base ⇌ Conjugate Base + Conjugate Acid
The acid dissociation constant (Kₐ) <em>signifies the acidic strength of a chemical species.</em>
∵ pKₐ = - log Kₐ
Thus for a strong acid, Kₐ value is large and pKₐ value is small.
pKₐ (HF) = 3.2 → strong acid
pKₐ (NH₃) = 38 → weak acid
<u>The chemical reaction involved in the dissolution process:</u>
NH₃ + 2 HF → NH₄⁺ + HF₂⁻
In this acid-base reaction, the acid HF reacts with NH₃ base to give the conjugate base HF₂⁻ and conjugate acid NH₄⁺.
<u>HF (acid) donates a proton to form the conjugate base, HF₂⁻ ion. NH₃ (base) accepts a proton to form the conjugate acid. </u>
Answer:
14.33 g
Explanation:
Solve this problem based on the stoichiometry of the reaction.
To do that we need the molecular weight of the masses involved and then calculate the number of moles, find the limiting reagent and finally calculate the mass of AgCl.
2 AgNO₃ + CaCl₂ ⇒ Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2 AgCl
mass, g 6.97 6.39 ?
MW ,g/mol 169.87 110.98 143.32
mol =m/MW 0.10 0.06 0.10
From the table above AgNO₃ is the limiting reagent and we will produce 0.10 mol AgCl which is a mass :
0.10 mol x 143.32 g/mol = 14.33 g
Answer:
potential energy
Explanation:
energy which is linked with the position of the object is called as potential energy. any object possessing energy due to its position is potential energy. example is holding a basketball up in to the air at a certain height so that it will have a gravitational pull towards earth surface. this gravitation pull is called as potential energy.
