Answer:

none of these are technically correct, but C. is closest? the energy from the sun is radiation, which does not need molecules to travel so its actually B. and C. together? poorly worded

Ammonium cyanide is a salt formed by hydrogen cyanide and ammonia. Ammonia is a weak base and hydrogen cyanide is a weak acid. 
NH₄CN + H₂O ⇒ NH₃ + HCN 

NH₄⁺ + H₂O -----> H₃O⁺ + NH₃

CN⁻ + H₂O -----> HCN + OH⁻ 

Although both compounds are weak electrolytes, NH₃ is somewhat stronger base than HCN is a strong acid, so the solution reacts alkaline. We can prove this using Ka and Kb values:

Ka(HCN) = 4.9 x × 10⁻¹⁰

Kb(NH₃) = 1.8 × 10⁻⁵<span>
Kw= </span>1.0 × 10⁻¹⁴

Let's first calculate Ka for NH₄⁺: 
Ka(NH₄⁺) x Kb(NH₃<span>) = pKw

</span>Ka(NH₄⁺) = Kw/Kb(NH₃) = 5.6 x 10⁻¹⁰

Then, Kb for CN⁻:

Kb(CN⁻) x Ka(HCN) = pKw

Kb(CN⁻) = Kw/Ka(HCN) = 2 x 10⁻⁵

 
From this, we can see that the acid constant NH4⁺ is much lower than the base constant of CN⁻, which will say that the solution of NH₄CN will react slightly alkaline because of the higher presence of hydroxyl ions in solution.

How many atoms are there in 3 moles of Fe?
Harrizon [31]
The atomic mass of an element on the periodic table is the weight of 1 mole of atoms. For example, the atomic mass of Fe is 55.8 on the periodic table. If you weigh out 55.8 grams of Fe you will have 1 mole of iron, or 6.02 x 1023 atoms.

In the titration of HCl with NaOH, the equivalence point is determined
kondaur [170]

Answer:

In the titration of HCl with NaOH, the equivalence point is determined from the point where the phenolphthalein turns pink and then remains pink on swirling.

Explanation:

The equivalence point is the point at which exactly enough titrant (NaOH) has been added to react with all of the analyte (HCl). Up to the equivalence point, the solution will be acidic because excess HCl remains in the flask.

Phenolphtalein is chosen because it changes color in a pH range between 8.3 – 10. Phenolphthalein is naturally colorless but turns pink in alkaline solutions. It remains colorless throughout the range of acidic pH levels, but it begins to turn pink at a pH level of 8.3 and continues to a bright purple in stronger alkalines.

It will appear pink in basic solutions and clear in acidic solutions.

The more NaOH added, the more pink it will be. (Until pH≈ 10)

In strongly basic solutions, phenolphthalein is converted to its In(OH)3− form, and its pink color undergoes a rather slow fading reaction and becomes completely colorless above 13.0 pH

a. from the point where the pink phenolphthalein turns colorless and then remains colorless on swirling.

⇒ the more colorless it turns, the more acid the solution. (More HCl than NaOH)

b. from the point where the phenolphthalein turns pink and then remains pink on swirling.

The equivalence point is the point where phenolphtalein turns pink and remains pink ( Between ph 8.3 and 10). (

Although, when there is hydrogen ions are in excess, the solution remains colorless. This begins slowely after ph= 10 and can be noticed around ph = 12-13

c. from the point where the pink phenolphthalein first turns colorless and then the pink reappears on swirling.

Phenolphthalein is colorless in acid solutions (HCl), and will only turn pink when adding a base like NaOH

d. from the point where the colorless phenolphthalein first turns pink and then disappears on swirling

Phenolphthalein is colorless in acid or neutral solutions. Once adding NaOH, the solution will turn pink. The point where the solution turns pink, and stays pink after swirling is called the equivalence point. When the pink color disappears on swirling, it means it's close to the equivalence point but not yet.
