Two cups of the same size are filled to the brim with clear liquids. Only one container holds water. The other contains a liquid

that has greater density than water. How could you safely identify the container holding the water? A) See which cup feels heavier. B) Taste the liquid in both cups. C) Touch the liquid in both cups. D) Add salt to the liquids to see if it dissolves.

D add salt to both liquids

Answer: A) See which cup feels heavier.

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

Thus if a liquid is more denser than water, it contains more mass per unit volume and thus feel heavier.

We cannot taste or touch liquids as the liquid can be corrosive.

Both the liquids can be polar and thus both can dissolve ionic compound i.e salt in it.

Thus the other liquid that has greater density than water feels heavier than water.

At a given temperature, 4.06 atm of H2 and 3.5 atm of Cl2 are mixed and allowed to come to equilibrium. The equilibrium pressure
Llana [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The value of K_p for the given chemical reaction is 0.1415

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure is defined as the ratio of partial pressures of the products and the reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as K_p

For a general chemical reaction:

aA+bB\rightarrow cC+dD

The expression for K_p is written as:

K_p=\frac{p_{C}^cp_{D}^d}{p_{A}^ap_{B}^b}

For the given chemical equation:

H_2(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2HCl(g)

The expression for K_p for the following equation is:

K_p=\frac{(p_{HCl})^2}{(p_{H_2)}(p_{Cl_2})}

We are given:

p_{HCl}=1.418atm\\p_{H_2}=4.06atm\\p_{Cl_2}=3.5atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

K_p=\frac{(1.418)^2}{(4.06)\times (3.5)}\\\\K_p=0.1415

The value of K_p for the given chemical reaction is 0.1415

A 0.600 g sample of diprotic acid H2X is dissolved in water, and titrated to the equivalence point with 40.0 mL of 0.200 M NaOH.
9966 [12]

Answer:

150 g/mol

Explanation:

Let's consider the complete neutralization of a diprotic acid H₂X with NaOH.

H₂X + 2 NaOH → Na₂X + 2 H₂O

40.0 mL of 0.200 M NaOH. were required to reach the endpoint. The reacting moles of NaOH are:

0.0400 L × 0.200 mol/L = 8.00 × 10⁻³ mol

The molar ratio of H₂X to NaOH is 1:2. The reacting moles of H₂X are 1/2 × 8.00 × 10⁻³ mol = 4.00 × 10⁻³ mol.

4.00 × 10⁻³ moles of H₂X have a mass of 0.600 g. The molar mass of H₂X is:

0.600 g/4.00 × 10⁻³ mol = 150 g/mol

Solid aluminum hydroxide reacts with a solution of hydrobromic acid. write a balanced molecular equation and a balanced net ioni
Stolb23 [73]
<span>To find the balanced molecular equation, we need to find the symbols for each element and their charges and then balanced the equation. This comes out to: Al(OH)3(aq) + 3HBR(aq) ---> AlBr3(aq) + 3H2O(l) The net ionic equation is adding the charges and separating them into basic components. Al3+ + 3OH- + 3H+ + 3BR- --> Al3+ + 3Br + H3O+ We can cancel out the aluminum and bromine to get: 3OH-(aq) + 3H+(aq) --> 3H2O(l)</span>
