What does the host mean when he says that the acid has "donated a proton" to the water?

Chemistry
1 answer:
weqwewe [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

As Brønsted-Lowry theory states, acids are the ones that can donate protons.

When a proton is donated, it is released to become medium more acidic.

HCl is a strong acid.

HCl (l) + H₂O (l)  →  H₃O⁺ (aq) +  Cl⁻(aq)

These always reffers to strong acid where the dissociation is 100% completed.

In a weak acid, dissociation is not 100% complete, that's why we have an equilibrium.

HA (l) + H₂O (l)  ⇄  H₃O⁺ (aq) +  A⁻(aq)                   Ka

How many grams of silver nitrate will be needed to produce 8.6 g of silver?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

13.5g of AgNO3 will be needed

Explanation:

Silver nitrate, AgNO3 contains 1 mole of silver, Ag, per mole of nitrate. To solve this problem we need to convert the mass of Ag to moles. Thee moles = Moles of AgNO3 we need. With the molar mass of AgNO3 we can find the needed mass:

<em>Moles Ag-Molar mass: 107.8682g/mol-</em>

8.6g * (1mol / 107.8682g) = 0.0797 moles Ag = Moles AgNO3

<em>Mass AgNO3 -Molar mass: 169.87g/mol-</em>

0.0797 moles Ag * (169.87g/mol) =

<h3>13.5g of AgNO3 will be needed</h3>

Which of the following molecules or ions is polar? (20 POINTS)
inessss [21]

Answer:

All of these three are polar molecules or ions

Explanation:

1) CO3 ^2-

It is a polar ion because it consists of one Oxygen atom and three carbon atoms so there is a substantial electroegativity difference between carbon and Oxygen due to which shared electrons are attracted more towards Oxygen creating partial negative charge on it and less towards carbon creating a partial positive charge on it, which makes the overall ion polar.

2) HCN

HCN is a polar molecule because there is substantial electronegativity difference between Carbon and Hydrogen as well as between Carbon and Nitrogen. Due to this negative charge is induced over Nitrogen because electronegativity of Nitrogen is 3.0 and positive charge on Carbon because its electronegativity is 2.5. The overall molecule is polar.

3) NO3^-1

Nitrate ion is also a polar molecule because there are three atoms of Oxygen and one atom of Nitrogen. There is substantial electronegativity difference between oxygen (3.44) and nitrogen (3.0) due to which partial positive charge is created on Nitrogen and partial negative charge created over three Oxygen atoms. The overall molecule is polar.

Hope it helps!

For the first ionization energy for an N2 molecule, what molecular orbital is the electron removed from
olga55 [171]

Answer:

p orbital.

Explanation:

Valence electrons are the electrons in an atom holding the very last orbital which is used in chemical bonding with other elements. Their existence could define the chemical properties of that atom.

During the first energy in ionization of an N2 molecule the molecular orbital from which the electron could be extracted is the only one with the highest energy level. Nitrogen has its outermost orbital (p) containing three valence electrons. Each orbital is only half filled, and thus it is unstable Thus, the electron mission must have been removed from p orbital.

Washing soda is a hydrate of sodium carbonate. Elemental analysis of a sample of washing soda gave 4.20% C and 7.05% H. What is
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Na₂CO₃ · 10H₂O

Explanation:

The formula for sodium carbonate hydrate is:

Na₂CO₃ · xH₂O

The unknown "x" is the number of water molecules contained in the hydrate.

To find "x" we have to use the hydrogen percentage in the sample, 7.05 % H.

First we calculate the molecular weight of Na₂CO₃ · xH₂O:

molecular weight of Na₂CO₃ · xH₂O = 23 × 2 + 12 + 16 × 3 + 18x

molecular weight of Na₂CO₃ · xH₂O = 106 + 18x  g/mole

Now we devise the fallowing reasoning tanking in account 1 mole of Na₂CO₃ · xH₂O:

if in        106 + 18x grams of Na₂CO₃ · xH₂O we have 2x grams of hydrogen

then in  100 grams of Na₂CO₃ · xH₂O we have 7.05 grams of hydrogen

106 + 18x = (100 × 2x) / 7.05

106 + 18x = 28.4x

106 = 28.4x - 18x

106 = 10.4x

x = 106 / 10.4

x = 10.2 ≈ 10

The formula for the washing soda is Na₂CO₃ · 10H₂O.

slega [8]

Answer:

Explanation:

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2NaCl(aq) ==> PbCl2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

NO3- mixes with everything at beginning levels.

PbCl2 doesn't mix at all in water. It becomes a ppte, which means it is solid form. Your teacher might prefer using PbCl2(ppte). I think I'd ask to make sure.
