Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf Weak \ base}}

Explanation:

The pH scale which classifies a solution's acidity or basicity.

  • A pH below 7 is acidic. This means it has more hydrogen ions.
  • A pH equal to 7 is neutral. This has equal hydrogen and hydroxide ions.
  • A pH above 7 is basic. This has more hydroxide ions.

We are given a reading of 8. This is above 7, but not much greater. Therefore, it could be classified as a weak base.

In the equation below
yulyashka [42]

Answer:

6.25 moles of N₂ is produced, and 18.8 moles of Cu and H₂O is produced.

Explanation:

We are given the chemical equation:

\displaystyle 2\text{NH$_3$}_\text{(g)} + 3\text{CuO}_\text{(s)} \longrightarrow \text{N$_2$}_\text{(g)}  + 3\text{Cu}_\text{(s)}+3\text{H$_2$O}_\text{(g)}

And we want to determine the amount of products produced when 12.5 moles of NH₃ is reacted with excess CuO.

Compute using stoichiometry. From the equation, we can see the following stoichiometric ratios:

  • The ratio between NH₃ and N₂ is 2:1. (i.e. One mole of N₂ is produced from every two moles of NH₃.)
  • The ratio between NH₃ and Cu is 2:3.
  • The ratio between NH₃ and H₂O is 2:3. (i.e. Three moles of H₂O or Cu is produced frome every two moles of NH₃.)

Dimensional Analysis:

  • The amount of N₂ produced:

\displaystyle 12.5\text{ mol NH$_3$} \cdot \frac{1\text{ mol N$_2$}}{2\text{ mol NH$_3$}} = 6.25\text{ mol N$_2$}

  • The amount of Cu produced:

\displaystyle 12.5\text{ mol NH$_3$} \cdot \frac{3\text{ mol Cu}}{2\text{ mol NH$_3$}} = 18.8\text{ mol Cu}

  • And the amount of H₂O produced:

\displaystyle 12.5\text{ mol NH$_3$} \cdot \frac{3\text{ mol H$_2$O}}{2\text{ mol NH$_3$}} = 18.8\text{ mol H$_2$O}

In conclusion, 6.25 moles of N₂ is produced, and 18.8 moles of Cu and H₂O is produced.

True or false? dry ice subliming (turning from a solid straight into a gas) is an example of a chemical change.
Over [174]
False because when a substance changes from one state of matter to another it is a physical change no matter how many states of matter it skips
