The parents of a young child carefully placed plastic plug protectors in all the electrical outlets in their house. Which statem

ent best describes the role of the plastic protectors? (2 points)
A)Electricity is transported through wires, which are good conductors of electricity. To prevent the flow of electricity into other objects, a material that will prevent the flow of electricity from escaping the wires needs to be used. Certain types of plastics, which are good conductors, are one of many materials that can be used.
B)Electrical outlets contain metal wires that are good conductors of electricity. In order to promote electrical safety, the parents covered the outlets with plastic, an insulator that prevents electrical current from flowing to another object.
C)Plastic is a good conductor of electricity. Placing plastic covers over the electrical outlets allows the electrical current to be redirected back to the plug and ensures the safety of those around the outlets.
D)Plastics and metals are good conductors. This is why plastics can be used to prevent the flow of electricity from materials, like metal wires, to other objects. By preventing the flow of electricity, these help keep people safe.

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

Answers are in the explanation

Explanation:

Equlibrium of HF in H₂O is:

HF + H₂O ⇄ F⁻ + H₃O⁺

Now, the KOH reacts with HF, thus:

KOH + HF →  F⁻ + H₂O

<em>That means after reaction, concentration of HF decrease increasing F⁻ concentration.</em>

Now, seeing the equilibrium, as moles of HF decrease and F⁻ moles increase, the equilibrium will shift to the left decreasing H₃O⁺ concentration.

For the statements:

A. The number of moles of HF will increase. <em>FALSE</em>. HF react with KOH, thus, moles of HF decrease

B. The number of moles of F- will decrease. <em>FALSE</em>. The reaction produce  F⁻ increasing its moles.

C. The equilibrium concentration of H₃O⁺ will increase. <em>FALSE. </em>The equilibrium shift to the left decreasing concentration of H₃O⁺

D. The pH will decrease. <em>FALSE</em>. As the H₃O⁺ concentration decrease, pH will increase

E. The ratio of [HF] / [F-] will remain the same. <em>FALSE</em>. Because moles of HF are decreasing whereas F- moles are increasing changing, thus, ratio.
