Mixing a base with an acid results in a chemical reaction called neutralization.<span> The result is a perfectly balanced solution of salt and water with a pH of 7 if the acid and base are balanced properly. Depending on the bases and acids used, it can be a dangerous experiment.

Hope I helped you lots!! :3</span>

V _ionic or compound

3241004551 [841]

Ionic compounds are formed by the bonding of non-metals to metals. Because inonic bonds involve electon transfer, the result is a mixture of ions; positive and negative, following the laws of electrostatics, like charges attract. These ions then form a giant structure (lattice) of ionic bonds and it is because of this that ionic compounds are solids (unless dissolved in water) and have extremely high melting and boling temparatures. In additions, beucase of the fixed placement of ions (charged particles) in a lattice, in the solid state ionic compounds don't conduct electricity very well but if dissolved in water (aqueous solution) the ions are free to move and carry a current.

An irregularly shaped piece of magnesium with a mass of 11.81 g was dropped into a graduated cylinder partially filled with wate

dlinn [17]

Answer:

The answer is

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

$density = \frac{mass}{volume} \\$

From the question

mass of magnesium = 11.81 g

volume = 6.80 mL

The density of the metal is

$density = \frac{11.81}{6.80} \\ = 1.73676470...$

We have the final answer as

When 6.040 grams of a hydrocarbon, CxHy, were burned in a combustion analysis apparatus, 18.95 grams of CO2 and 7.759 grams of H

algol [13]

Answer: The empirical formula is $CH_2$ and molecular formula is $C_4H_8$

Explanation:

We are given:

Mass of $CO_2$ = 18.95 g

Mass of $H_2O$ = 7.759 g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

For calculating the mass of carbon:

In 44g of carbon dioxide, 12 g of carbon is contained.

So, in 18.59 g of carbon dioxide, = $\frac{12}{44}\times 18.59=5.07g$ of carbon will be contained.

For calculating the mass of hydrogen:

In 18g of water, 2 g of hydrogen is contained.

So, in 7.759 g of water, = $\frac{2}{18}\times 7.759=0.862g$ of hydrogen will be contained.

Mass of C = 5.07 g

Mass of H = 0.862 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C = $\frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{5.07g}{12g/mole}=0.422moles$

Moles of H= $\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{0.862g}{1g/mole}=0.862moles$

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C = $\frac{0.422}{0.422}=1$

For H = $\frac{0.862}{0.422}=2$

The ratio of C : H = 1: 2

Hence the empirical formula is $CH_2$ .

The empirical weight of $CH_2$ = 1(12)+2(1)= 14 g.

The molecular weight = 56.1 g/mole

Now we have to calculate the molecular formula.

$n=\frac{\text{Molecular weight }}{\text{Equivalent weight}}=\frac{56.1}{14}=4$

The molecular formula will be= $4\times CH_2=C_4H_8$

Difference between fluorescence and phosphorescence

lbvjy [14]

Answer: Both fluorescence and phosphorescence are based on the ability of a substance to absorb light and emit light of a longer wavelength and therefore lower energy. The main difference is the time in which it takes to do so. So if it disappears immediately, it's fluorescence. If it lingers, it's phosphorescence.
