Answer:

* pH=4.37

* The solution is acidic since the pH is below 7.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we can mathematically define the pH by:

pH=-log([H_3O^+])

Thus, for the given hydronium concentration we simply compute the pH:

pH=-log(4.3x10^{-5})=4.37

Thereby, we conclude the solution is acidic due to the fact that the pH is below 7 which is the neutral point and above it the solutions are basic.

Regards.

For each pair of covalently bonded atoms, choose the one expected to have the shortest bond length. (A) C-I (B) H-I ...... (A,B)
UNO [17]

Answer:

i)  B

ii) D

Explanation:

<em>Bond length is determined by the size of the atoms involved and the bond order </em>

A) C-I

B)  H-I

answer : H-I has the shortest bond length because H has an electronegativity value of 2.2  while C has an electronegativity value of 2.5 hence the bond between H-I is greater than C - I due the electronegativity difference between H-I is greater as well.

C) H-Cl

D) H-I

answer :  H-Cl has the shortest bond length due the electronegativity difference between H-CI is greater as well.

What is atomic mass of an element stands for
Dovator [93]
Mass is a basic property of matter and is made of atoms. Atoms are made of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Protons and neutrons make up the majority of the mass in an atom. Atoms may vary in the number of neutrons they have (called isotopes), and therefore the exact atomic mass may vary from atom to atom

Difference between dipole dipole and hydrogen bonding
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Hydrogen bonds are stronger than the dipole dipole attraction force present in any molecule.

<h3>What is bonding in molecules?</h3>

Bonding is a type of attraction force which is present between the different atoms or elements of any substance.

  • Dipole dipole attraction force is a weak force as compared to the hydrogen bonding and present between any two oppositely charged atoms.
  • Hydrogen bond is present between the hydrogen atom and more electronegative atoms like O, S, N and F.

Hence main difference is that hydrogen bond is only present between the hydrogen atom and more electronegative.

A 50.0 g sample of liquid water at 25.0 degree C is mixed with 29.0 g of water at 45 degree C. The final temperature of the wate
kotegsom [21]

<u>Answer:</u> The final temperature of water is 32.3°C

<u>Explanation:</u>

When two solutions are mixed, the amount of heat released by solution 1 (liquid water) will be equal to the amount of heat absorbed by solution 2 (liquid water)

Heat_{\text{absorbed}}=Heat_{\text{released}}

The equation used to calculate heat released or absorbed follows:

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

m_1\times c\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c\times (T_{final}-T_2)]       ......(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

m_1 = mass of solution 1 (liquid water) = 50.0 g

m_2 = mass of solution 2 (liquid water) = 29.0 g

T_{final} = final temperature = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of solution 1 = 25°C  = [273 + 25] = 298 K

T_2 = initial temperature of solution 2 = 45°C  = [273 + 45] = 318 K

c = specific heat of water= 4.18 J/g.K

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

50.0\times 4.18\times (T_{final}-298)=-[29.0\times 4.18\times (T_{final}-318)]\\\\T_{final}=305.3K

Converting this into degree Celsius, we use the conversion factor:

T(K)=T(^oC)+273

305.3=T(^oC)+273\\T(^oC)=(305.3-273)=32.3^oC

Hence, the final temperature of water is 32.3°C
