Answer:

1) increases

2) decrease

3) increase

4) decrease

Explanation:

When ionic compounds dissolve in water, the concentration of ions in solution increases since ionic substances dissociate into ions in solution. The greater the concentration of ions in a solution, the greater the ionic strength of that solution.

Hence, if HNO3 is added to KOH solution, the ionic strength of the solution is increased due to an increase in the number of ions in the solution.

Also, when benzoic acid is titrated against KOH, potassium benzoate (an ionic substance) is formed thereby increasing the ionic strength of the solution.

However, when KOH is added to CaCl2, a precipitate (Ca(OH)2) is formed. Also, when NaOH is added to FeCl2, a precipitate (Fe(OH)2) is formed. In both cases, the formation of the precipitate decreases the concentration of ions in the solution thereby decreasing the ionic strength of the solution.

Cavendish’s name for hydrogen gas was "inflammable air." The word inflammable means "to burn. "Why did Cavendish use this name?
saul85 [17]
He used that name because if you lit hydrogen on fire it would catch. therefore, it was dangerous to be around. think of it as a kind of warning. :) hope that helps.

What part of the sun do we see from earth?
NISA [10]

Answer:

photosphere

Explanation:

photosphere

There are 3 main layers of the Sun that we can see. They are the photosphere, the chromosphere and the corona. Together they make up the "atmosphere" of the Sun. The part of the Sun that glows (and that we see with the naked eye) is called the photosphere

Explain what makes insulative materials work most effectively.
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Most common insulation materials work by slowing conductive heat flow and--to a lesser extent--convective heat flow. Radiant barriers and reflective insulation systems work by reducing radiant heat gain. To be effective, the reflective surface must face an air space.

Explanation:

To be effective, the reflective surface must face an air space.

Using the systematic approach for equilibrium problems, calculate the pH of 0.05 M HOCl. Ka= 3.0*10-8 Group of answer choices 3.
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

The pH is equal to 4.41

Explanation:

Since HClO is a weak acid, its dissociation in aqueous medium is:

                HClO   ⇄   ClO-  +  H+

start:          0.05            0         0

change       -x               +x       +x

balance     0.05-x         x         x

As it is a weak acid it dissociates very little, in its ClO- and H + ions, so the change is negative, where x is a degree of dissociation.

the acidity constant when equilibrium is reached is equal to:

Ka=\frac{[ClO-]*[H+]}{[HClO]}=\frac{x*x}{0.05-x}=3x10^{-8}

The 0.05-x fraction can be approximated to 0.05, because the ionized fraction (x) is very small, therefore we have:

3x10^{-8}=\frac{x^{2} }{0.05}

clearing the x and calculating its value we have:

x=3.87x10^{-5}=[H+]=[ClO-]

the pH can be calculated by:

pH=-log[H+]=-log[3.87x10^{-5}]=4.41

Boron<br> B<br> 10.811<br> Number of neutrons
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

6

Explanation:

To determine the number of neutrons we round 10.8 to 11 and subtract the atomic number (5) and get 6; therefore, boron has 6 neutrons.
