Answer:
Since KOH is a strong base, the solution completely ionizes into K+ and OH- when in water. The reaction KOH --> K+ + OH- takes place. The concentration of [ OH- ] can then be used to calculate the pOH of the solution. pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - 1.48 = 12.52
Explanation:
Answer:
B. Ca(OH)2(s)+CO2(aq)-CaCO3(s)+H2O(aq)
1) START counting for sig. figs. On the FIRST non-zero digit.
2) STOP counting for sig. figs. On the LAST non-zero digit.
3) Non-zero digits are ALWAYS significant.
4) Zeroes in between two non-zero digits are significant. All other zeroes are insignificant.
Answer:
A
Explanation:
A formal charge (FC) is the charge assigned to an atom in a molecule, assuming that electrons in all chemical bonds are shared equally between atoms, regardless of relative electronegativity(Wikipedia).
The formal charge on an atom in a molecule reflects the electron count associated with the atom compared to the isolated neutral atom(University of Calgary).
Looking at all the structures listed A-E for SeO2F2, only structure A minimizes the formal charges for each atom in SeO2F2.
Answer:
D. Lowering activation energy for the reaction
Explanation:
Catalysts increase the rate of a reaction without being used up. They do this by lowering the activation energy needed. With a catalyst, more collisions result in a reaction, so the rate of reaction increases.
Hope this helped :)
