Why should we never change a symbol in chemistry?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mrac [35]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Chemical symbols are used to standardize the 'language of chemistry' and to identify elements and atoms in a chemical formula easily. Chemical symbols consist of one or two letters, most often derived from the name of the element.

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Since valence shells are mostly empty in nonmetal atoms, the atoms attract and hold any electrons they can in order to fill their valence shells.

The terms Q and K refer to reaction components at non-equilibrium and equilibrium conditions, respectively. For a forward reacti
daser333 [38]

Answer:

The value of Q must be less than that of K.

Explanation:

The difference of K and Q can be understood with the help of an example as follows

         A ⇄ B

In this reaction A is converted into B but after some A is converted , forward reaction stops At this point , let equilibrium concentration of B be [B] and let equilibrium concentration of A be [A]

In this case ratio of  [B] and  [A]  that is

K =  [B] / [A] which is called equilibrium constant.

But if we measure the concentration of A and B ,before equilibrium is reached , then the ratio of the concentration of A and B will be called Q. As reaction continues concentration of A increases and concentration of B decreases. Hence Q tends to be equal to K.

Q = [B] / [A] . It is clear that Q < K before equilibrium.

If Q < K , reaction will proceed towards equilibrium or forward reaction will

proceed .

Find the ph of a buffer that consists of 0.18 m ch3nh2 and 0.73 m ch3nh3cl (pkb of ch3nh2 = 3.35)?
ozzi
Hello!

First, we need to determine the pKa of the base. It can be found applying the following equation:

pKa=14-pKb=14-3,35=10,65

Now, we can apply the Henderson-Hasselbach's equation in the following way:

pH=pKa+log( \frac{[CH_3NH_2]}{[CH_3NH_3Cl]} )=10,65+log( \frac{0,18M}{0,73M} )=10,04

So, the pH of this buffer solution is 10,04

Have a nice day!
