What is a state function?

1 answer:

3 0

Is a function defined for a system relating several state variables or state quantities that depends only on the current equilibrium thermodynamic state of the system[1] (e.g. gas, liquid, solid, crystal, or emulsion), not the path which the system took to reach its present state. A state function describes the equilibrium state of a system, thus also describing the type of system. For example, a state function could describe an atom or molecule in a gaseous, liquid, or solid form; a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture; and the amounts of energy required to create such systems or change them into a different equilibrium state.

fish give off the compound ammonia which has a pH above 7 to which class of compounds does ammonia belong

jasenka [17]

Answer:
The compound ammonia given by fish is alkaline

Explanation:
We can classify elements/compounds based on their pH values into three types:
acids: these are compounds having pH value lower than 7
neutral: these are compounds having pH value equal to 7
alkalies: these are compounds having pH values higher than 7

This is shown in the attached image

We are given that the pH of the compound ammonia generated by the fish is above 7.
According to the above explanation, compound ammonia would be an alkaline compound.

Hope this helps :)

Will give brainliest! if 32.0 g of hcl is to be diluted to make a 4.80 m solution, how much water should be added?

nadezda [96]

The required volume of water is 0.18 liters.

<h3>What is molarity?</h3>

Molarity of any solution is define as the number of moles of solute present in per liter of solution as;

M = n/V

Moles of solute will be calculated as:

n = W/M, where

W = given mass of HCl = 32g

M = molar mass of HCl = 36.4g/mol

n = 32 / 36.4 = 0.88 mole

Given molarity of solution = 4.80M

On putting all values in the above equation, we get

V = (0.88) / (36.4) = 0.18 L

Hence required volume of water is 0.18L.
