14. a. Acidic

15. b. Weaker

16. d. Dilute and weak

Explanation:

14. Which type of the solution is one with the pH of 3?

Solution with pH from 1 to 7 are acidic, equal to 7 is neutral and from 7 to 14 basic. The solution with the pH equal to 3 is acidic.

15. The smaller the value of the base dissociation constant (Kb), the weaker the base.

The dissociation reaction of a base (B) is:

B + H₂O → BH⁺ + OH⁻

Kb is defined as:

Kb = ( [BH⁺] × [OH⁻] ) / ( [B] × [H₂O] )

The potency of the base depends on the concentration of the hydroxide ion [OH⁻], so if the Kb ratio is small it means that the concentration of hydroxide ion is smaller so the base will be weaker.

16. A 0.39 M solution of an acid that ionizes only slightly in solution would be termed dilute and weak.

The acid is weak because is only slightly ionizing in solution. The therm diluted is a little bit arbitrarily because we ask yourself "diluted in respect with what"? I would characterize the acid to be diluted at a concentration of 1 M and concentrated at a concentration of 10 M.

White phosphorus is composed of tetrahedral molecules of P4 in which every P atom is connected to three other P atoms. In the Le

Answer:

In the Lewis structure of P4 there are 6 bonding pairs and 4 lone pairs of electrons.

Explanation:

The structure of tetrahedral molecule of P4 is provided below.

Each phosphorus atom has 5 valence electrons out of which 3 electrons involve in bonding and the rest 2 electrons exist as a lone pair that does not involve in bonding.Hence each phosphorus atom has one lone pair.In P4 molecule there are phosphorus atoms and hence 4 lone pairs in total.

As you can see in the figure, each phosphorus atom is bonded to the other three atoms.A bond is formed when two atoms share one electron each and the pair is called bonding pair.

From the figure we can see that there are 6 bonds in total.Each bond consist of one bonding pair of electrons and hence in total there are 6 bonding pairs of electrons.

Hence in a P4 molecule there are six bonding pairs and 4 lone pairs of electrons.
