Answer: polar solvent

Explanation:

Polarity can be said to mean, charge separation. Thus, polar solvents are solvents that have charge separation and the ability to solvate i.e dissolve ions.

A polar solvent molecule has slight electrical charge as a result of its shape. A typical and most common example is water, with an oxygen and two hydrogen atoms. The two hydrogen atoms are at an angle to the single oxygen atom. Water is the classic polar solvent. The oxygen atom tends to polarize electron density to itself.

Do any of the elements have similar properties?

Hello! Charchar here!

Answer:

I don't know what the elements are soo

The elements in the first column of the Periodic Table (other than hydrogen) are known as Group 1A metals, or alkali metals. When you compare the chemical properties of these elements (lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium), what you'll notice is that they are all remarkably similar.

The solubility of oxygen in lakes high in the Rocky Mountains is affected by the altitude. If the solubility of O2 from the air

IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

$1.75\cdot 10^{-4} M$

Explanation:

Henry's law states that the solubility of a gas is directly proportional to its partial pressure. The equation may be written as:

$S = k_H p^o$

Where $k_H$ is Henry's law constant.

Our strategy will be to identify the Henry's law constant for oxygen given the initial conditions and then use it to find the solubility at different conditions.

Given initially:

$S_1 = 2.67\cdot 10^{-4} M$

Also, at sea level, we have an atmospheric pressure of:

$p = 1.00 atm$

Given mole fraction:

$\chi_{O_2} = 0.209$

According to Dalton's law of partial pressures, the partial pressure of oxygen is equal to the product of its mole fraction and the total pressure:

$p^o = \chi_{O_2} p$

Then the equation becomes:

$S_1 = k_H \chi_{O_2} p$

Solve for $k_H$ :

$k_H = \frac{S_1}{\chi_{O_2} p} = \frac{2.67\cdot 10^{-4} M}{0.209\cdot 1.00 atm} = 0.001278 M/atm$

Now we're given that at an altitude of 12,000 ft, the atmospheric pressure is now:

$p = 0.657 atm$

Apply Henry's law using the constant we found:

$S_2 = k_H \chi_{O_2} p = 0.001278 M/atm\cdot 0.209\cdot 0.657 atm = 1.75\cdot 10^{-4} M$

A 200.0 mL solution of 0.40 M ammonium chloride was titrated with 0.80 M sodium hydroxide. What was the pH of the solution after

choli [55]

Answer:

9.25

Explanation:

Let first find the moles of $NH_4Cl$ and $NaOH$

number of moles of $NH_4Cl$ = 0.40 mol/L × 200 × 10⁻³L

= 0.08 mole

number of moles of $NaOH$ = 0.80 mol/L × 50 × 10⁻³L

= 0.04 mole

The equation for the reaction is expressed as:

$NH^+_{4(aq)} \ + OH^-_{(aq)} ------> NH_{3(g)} \ + H_2O_{(l)}$

The ICE Table is shown below as follows:

$NH^+_{4(aq)} \ + OH^-_{(aq)} ------> NH_{3(g)} \ + H_2O_{(l)}$

Initial (M) 0.08 0.04 0

Change (M) - 0.04 -0.04 + 0.04

Equilibrium (M) 0.04 0 0.04

$K_a*K_b = 10^{-14} \ at \ 25^0C$

$K_a = \frac{10^{-14}}{K_b}$

$K_a = \frac{10^{-14}}{1.76*10^{-5}}$

$K_a= 5.68*10^{10}$

$pK_a = - log \ (K_a)$

$pK_a = - log \ (5.68*10^{-10})$

$pK_a = 9.25$

$pH = pKa + \ log (\frac{HB}{HA} )$ for buffer solutions

$pH = pKa + \ log (\frac{moles \ of \ base }{ moles\ of \ acid} )$ since they are in the same solution

$pH = 9.25 + \ log (\frac{0.04 }{ 0.04} )$

$pH = 9.25$
