Answer:

d. the conjugate base of the weak acid

Explanation:

The strong base (BOH) is completely dissociated in water:

BOH → B⁺ + OH⁻

The resulting conjugate acid (OH⁻) is a weak acid, so it remains in solution as OH⁻ ions.

By other hand, the weak acid (HA) is only slightly dissociated in water:

HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻

The resulting conjugate base (A⁻) is a weak base. Thus, it reacts with H⁺ ions from water to form HA, increasing the concentration of OH⁻ ions in the solution.

Therefore, the resulting solution will have a pH > 7 (basic).

When a protein of 50 nanometers is mixed with water the opaque result is called a(n):_____.
12345 [234]

When a protein of 50 nanometers is mixed with water, the opaque result is called a: suspension.

A suspension is a heterogeneous combination of two or extra substances. In it, the particles are suspended for the duration of the solution in bulk and can be easily viewed by means of bare eyes.

How many moles of Na2Cr2O7 contain 14 moles of oxygen atoms?
sergiy2304 [10]
The number of moles of sodium dichromate from the number of moles of oxygen atoms can be determined through stoichiometry. Using the molecular formula of the compound, Na2Cr2O7, 1 mole of the compound contains 7 moles of oxygen. Hence, 14 moles O2*(1 mole Na2Cr2O7/ 7 mole O2) is equal to 2 moles <span>Na2Cr2O7.</span>

Choose all that apply. Solids, liquids, and gases can be distinguished by their:molecular weight shape temperature kinetic energ
vesna_86 [32]
So, we have:
- molecular weight
- shape
- temperature
- kinetic energy
- mass
- density

Let's rule out the different options.
- molecular weight: Say you have a molecule of H2O. H2O can be a solid, liquid, or gas, but its molecular weight never changes throughout (It's still the same molecule, no matter what phase it is in). We can rule this out.

- shape: Let's pretend we have three identical closed containers, and we fill each one halfway with water, blocks of ice cubes, and water vapor. In the container with water, you will see that the water takes the shape of the container, but doesn't fill the entire container up. The ice cubes will stay ice cubes, assuming they don't melt, so they don't take the shape of the container. The vapor will fill up the entire container. Since all three are different, I would say yes, this could be a distinguishable feature.

- temperature: In general, I would say no, because every element/molecule has different boiling points and different vaporization points. So if you have a liquid at 5°C, you could also have a different element in solid form at 5°C. But if you're comparing a single type of molecule, it would have a boiling point and a vaporization point, so you <em>would</em> be able to tell between them.

- kinetic energy: Kinetic energy refers to how much movement there is in respect to each molecule. In solids, the molecules are packed tightly together and can't move very much, so they have lower kinetic energy. In liquids, they are less packed, but still restricted. And in gases, they can fly freely, so they will have much more kinetic energy than liquids or solids. This one's a yes.

- mass: No matter what form, there are still the same amount of molecules, and each molecule has the same mass as before. It won't change.

- density: Since the molecules are more spread out in gases, it will be less dense. Liquids will be more dense, and solids will have the greatest density. So, yes.

Conclusion: shape, kinetic energy, density, (and temperature if it's talking about a single type of molecule)

Identify each of the following household substances as a strong electrolyte, weak electrolyte, or non-electrolyte: salt solution
wolverine [178]

Answer:

Electrolytes are substances that can ionize in water. They could be acids, bases or salts as long as they give ions when they dissolve in water.

Explanation:

  • <em>Strong electrolytes</em> completely ionize when dissolved in water, leaving no neutral molecules. The strong electrolytes here are:<u> salt water</u>, <u>baking soda (NaHCO3) solution.</u>
  • <em>Weak electrolytes</em> do not completely dissociate in solution, and hence have a low ionic yield. Examples of this would be<u> vinegar </u>and <u>bleach </u>(which could be sodium hypochlorite or chlorine, which are weakly dissociated).
  • <em>Non-electrolytes </em>will remain as molecules and are not ionized in water at all. In this case, <u>sugar solution is a non-electrolytes</u>, even though sugar dissolves in water, but it remains as a whole molecule and not ions.
