Answer:

D, Li2S

Explanation:

This is because Lithium, which is in group IA of the periodic table, has a charge of +1. Sulfur will have a charge of -2 because it is in group 6A in the periodic table, which means to balance these out, there needs to be 2 lithium ions which would result in a charge of +2. With Lithium now having a charge of +2 due to having two atoms in the compound, and sulfur already having a charge of -2 as one atom, these two cancel out meaning the compound is neutral.

If a 1.00 mL sample of the reaction mixture for the equilibrium constant experiment required 32.40 mL of 0.258 M NaOH to titrate

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The concentration of acetic acid is 8.36 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of acetic acid = 1.00 mL = 0.001 L

Volume of NaOH = 32.40 mL = 0.03240 L

Molarity of NaOH = 0.258 M

Step 2: The balanced equation

CH3COOH + NaOH → CH3COONa + H2O

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of the acetic acid

b*Ca*Va = a*Cb*Vb

⇒with b = the coefficient of NaOH = 1

⇒with Ca = the concentration of CH3COOH = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with Va = the volume of CH3COOH = 1.00 mL = 0.001L

⇒with a = the coefficient of CH3COOH = 1

⇒with Cb = the concentration of NaOH = 0.258 M

⇒with Vb = the volume of NaOH = 32.40 mL = 0.03240 L

Ca * 0.001 L = 0.258 * 0.03240

Ca = 8.36 M

The concentration of acetic acid is 8.36 M

A student conducting the iodine clock experiment accidentally makes an s2o32- stock solution that is too concentrated. how will

cupoosta [38]

Adding (S2O3)2- would affect the reaction mechanism that involves this ion. From the reaction mechanism given above, the equilibrium of step 2 would be affected. Adding the stock solution of (S2O3)2- would shift the equilibrium to the right thus making more products of the said mechanism. Also, the reaction rate of this step would occur faster than the original rate. This is based on Le Chatelier's Prinicple which states that a corresponding change would happen to the equilibrium of a reaction when pressure, concentration of the substances or temperature is changed. So, that after the addition, a color change would appear immediately because I3- would be removed slowly from solution, and would therefore be able to react with starch.

The options are: ( it can’t be repeated )

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

3- gamma radiation

Explanation:

Hello,

In the above question, 4 of the options are related to polymerization which are

1. Synthetic polymer

2. Natural polymer

3. Condensation polymerization

4. Addition polymerization.

The first two options are types of polymer that exists while the last two are polymerization techniques.

The odd option here which is "gamma radiation" is a particle which is emitted from radioactive substances during decay. It has no mass and no charge but it is highly penetrating and dangerous to human health.

However,

Synthetic polymers are also known as man made polymers and they exist around us because they're present in materials which we use everyday. An example is polyethylene, nylon-6,6 etc

Natural polymers are compounds which are polymeric in nature (compounds catenating to form a complex molecule). Natrual occurring polymers can be found in proteins and some lipids.

How do the equilibrium concentrations of the reactants compare to the equilibrium concentrations of the product?

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: It depends equilibrium constant K

Explanation: You need to to have reaction formula.

If K >> 1 then concentrations of products are much bigger than

concentrations of reactants. If K < < 1, concentration of products is small.
