Answer:

Bronsted lowry base = Proton acceptor = H2O

Bronsted lowry acid = Proton donor = HF-

Explanation:

The equation is given as;

HF-(aq) + H2O(l) --> F-(aq) + H3O(aq)

A bronsted lowry base is any specie that can accept hydrogen ion (proton) from another molecule.

Basically a bronsted lowry base is a proton acceptor while a bronsted lowry acid is a proton donor.

In the reaction above, upon comparing both the reactants and products;

Bronsted lowry base = Proton acceptor = H2O

Bronsted lowry acid = Proton donor = HF-

1.0 mole of KCl(aq) is added to which solution to produce a precipitate?

taurus [48]

Answer:

Ag+

Explanation:

If you imagine as if the problem were double replacement, you would pair the Cl with one of the following ions provided in the choices. As seen on Table F, Ag+ paired with Cl- produces an insoluble compound, hence the precipitate. All the other ions shown in the multiple choice section, when paired with Cl- will produce a soluble compound, as a result NOT a precipitate.

Given that the molar mass of NaCl is 58.44 g/mol, what is the molarity of a solution that contains 87.75 g of NaCl in 500. mL of

Stells [14]

Given information:

Mass of NaCl (m) = 87.75 g

Volume of solution (V) = 500 ml = 0.5 L

Molar mass of NaCl (M) = 58.44 g/mol

To determine:

The molarity of NaCl solution

Explanation:

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute(n) dissolved per liter of solution (V)

i.e. M = moles of solute/liters of solution = n/V

Moles of solute (n) = mass of solute (m)/molar mass (M)

moles of NaCl = 87.75 g/58.55 g.mol-1 = 1.499 moles

Therefore,

Molarity of NaCl = 1.499 moles/0.5 L = 2.998 moles/lit ≅ 3 M

Ans: (D)

In a hypothetical atom, electron N transitions between energy levels, giving off orange light in the transition. In the same ato

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer : Electron P has greater energy difference than the Electron N.

Explanation :

Wavelength range of violet light = 400 - 500 nm

Wavelength range of orange light = 600 - 700 nm

The Planck's equation is,

$E=\frac{h\times c}{\lambda}$

where,

E = energy of light

c = speed of light

$\lambda$ = wavelength of light

According to the Planck's equation, wavelength and energy follow inverse relation. As the wavelength increases, energy decreases.

From the given spectrum, the wavelength of violet light is less. We conclude that When electron P gives violet light on transition it means that energy difference between the energy level was high.

From the given spectrum, the wavelength of orange light is more. We conclude that When electron N gives orange light on transition it means that energy difference between the energy level was low.

So, Electron P which gives violet light on transition has greater energy difference than the Electron N.
