What is different between an ionic bond and a covalent bond?

Answer:

Explanation:

Ionic bonds result from transfer of electrons, whereas covalent bonds are formed by sharing. 2. Ionic bonds are electrostatic in nature, resulting from that attraction of positive and negative ions that result from the electron transfer process; charge separation between covalently bonded atoms is less extreme.

Which of the following is a physical property of a substance?? A. Combustion B. Corrosion C. Tendency to tarnish D. Solubility

Fofino [41]

A physical property does not change the substance.

Solubility would be the answer since all of the rest are changing the substance. They all deal with bonds except solubility.

Answer: D. Solubility

16. The concentration of a solution of potassium hydroxide is determined by titration with nitric

____ [38]

Answer:

$M_{base}=0.709M$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the reaction between potassium hydroxide and nitric acid is:

$KOH+HNO_3\rightarrow KNO_3+H_2O$

We can see a 1:1 mole ratio between the acid and base, therefore, for the titration analysis, we find the following equality at the equivalence point:

$n_{acid}=n_{base}$

That in terms of molarities and volumes is:

$M_{acid}V_{acid}=M_{base}V_{base}$

Thus, solving the molarity of the base (KOH), we obtain:

$M_{base}=\frac{M_{acid}V_{acid}}{V_{base}} =\frac{0.498M*42.7mL}{30.0mL}\\ \\M_{base}=0.709M$

Regards.

How do oil spills affect marine ecosystems?

charle [14.2K]

Oil makes it impossible for fur-bearing mammals to insulate<span>, this leaves them unprotected from the harsh elements out in the water. Birds and mammals will die from hypothermia without the ability to insulate from the freezing water.

I hope this helps you! :-)</span>

When magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is formed: 2HCl + Mg → H2 + MgCl2. What is the volume of hydrogen pro

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:- C. 16.4 L

Solution:- The given balanced equation is:

$2HCl+Mg\rightarrow H_2+MgCl_2$

From this equation, there is 2:1 mol ratio between HCl and hydrogen gas. First of all we calculate the moles of hydrogen gas from given grams of HCl using stoichiometry and then the volume of hydrogen gas could be calculated using ideal gas law equation, PV = nRT.

Molar mass of HCl = 1.008 + 35.45 = 36.458 gram per mol

The calculations are shown below:

$49.0gHCl(\frac{1molHCl}{36.458gHCl})(\frac{1molH_2}{2molHCl})$

= $0.672molH_2$

Now we will use ideal gas equation to calculate the volume.

n = 0.672 mol

T = 25 + 273 = 298 K

P = 101.3 kPa = 1 atm

R = $0.0821\frac{atm.L}{mol.K}$

PV = nRT

1(V) = (0.672)(0.0821)(298)

V = 16.4 L

From calculations, 16.4 L of hydrogen gas are formed and so the correct choice is C.
