pH=6.98
Explanation:
This is a very interesting question because it tests your understanding of what it means to have a dynamic equilibrium going on in solution.
As you know, pure water undergoes self-ionization to form hydronium ions, H3O+, and hydroxide anions, OH−.
2H2O(l]⇌H3O+(aq]+OH−(aq]→ very important!
At room temperature, the value of water's ionization constant, KW, is equal to 10−14. This means that you have
KW=[H3O+]⋅[OH−]=10−14
Since the concentrations of hydronium and hydroxide ions are equal for pure water, you will have
[H3O+]=√10−14=10−7M
The pH of pure water will thus be
pH=−log([H3O+])
pH=−log(10−7)=7
Now, let's assume that you're working with a 1.0-L solution of pure water and you add some 10
Unburned hydrocarbon on reacting with oxygen undergoes combustion reaction. However, the activation energy of this reaction is significantly high. When a catalyst like Pd is added to the reaction system, it provides active sites for the reaction to occur. It acts are a heterogeneous catalyst. It is pertinent of note that catalyst is refereed as heterogeneous, when it exist in different phase as compared to reactant and products. In present case, reactants and products are in gas phase, while catalyst is in solid phase. Due to availability of larger surface area at active site of Pd, activation energy of reaction decreases and decrease in activation energy favors higher reaction rates.
Transform boundaries are places where plates slide sideways past each other. At transform boundaries lithosphere is neither created nor destroyed. Many transform boundaries are found on the sea floor, where they connect segments of diverging mid-ocean ridges. California's San Andreas fault is a transform boundary. So its true
Answer:
d. IF3
Explanation:
The Octet rule posits that atoms gain, atom lose, or share electrons in order to have a full valence shell of 8 electrons. This statement occurs when atoms also combine to form molecules until they attain or share eight valence electrons either by losing or gaining eletrons.
From the given options, a valid Lewis structure that cannot be drawn without violating the octet rule is IF3
