The balanced net ionic equation for the neutralization reaction involving equal molar amounts of hno3 and koh is ________.
frosja888 [35]
 The  net ionic  equation for  the neutralization  reaction involving  equal molar amount amount of  HNo3  and KoH  is 

H^+   +  OH^-  =  H2O (l)

    explanation
write  the   chemical equation
HNO3 (aq) + KOH(aq) =  KNO3(aq) +H2O  (l)

ionic   eequation

H^+(aq)  +  NO3^- (aq) +  K^+9aq)   OH^-(aq) = K^+ (aq) + NO3^-(aq)  + H2O(l)


cancel the  spectator  ions( ions which  does  not  take  place in  equation ) for this case    is  NO3^-  and  No3^-

thus the  net ionic  is


H^+(aq)  + OH^- (aq)  =  H2O(l)

A student is able to lift 500N weight by applying 100N. What is the mechanical advantage of a simple machine?
Semmy [17]

Explanation:

Load=500N

Effort=100N

Now,

We have,

Mechanical advantage= Load / effort

= 500/100

=5

Therefore, mechanical advantage is 5.

Identify the term that applies to each definition.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

A. Reference blank

B. Cuvettes

C. Transmittance

D. Absorbance

E. Wavelength

Explanation:

A reference blank is a sample prepared using the solvent and any other chemicals in the sample solutions, but not the absorbing substance.

A square-shaped container, typically made of quartz, designed to hold samples in a spectrophotometer is known as Cuvettes.

A measurement of the amount of light that passes through a sample or percentage of light transmitted by the sample, with the respective intensities of the incident and transmitted beams is called Transmittance.

The measurement of the amount of light taken in by a sample is known as Absorbance

The wavelength is also the distance travelled by the wave during a period of oscillation. In spectrophotometry, the unit is inversely proportional to energy and commonly measured in nanometers

What is the pH of a 1 ´ 10-5 M KOH solution?
melisa1 [442]
KOH -------------> K⁺   +  OH⁻

pOH = - log [ OH⁻ ]

pOH = - log [ 1 x 10⁻⁵ ]

pOH =  5

pH + pOH = 14

pH + 5 = 14

pH = 14 - 5

pH = 9

hope this helps!

Read the descriptions below of two substances and an experiment on each. Decide whether the result of the experiment tells you t
Lelu [443]

Answer:

Sample A - mixture

Sample B- Mixture

Explanation:

Looking at sample A, we can see that as water was poured over sample A, the sample was separated into its components as the powder disappeared leaving behind a gritty black sand-like material on the surface of the paper. A separation of the mixture has taken place.

In sample B, we can clearly see that it is a mixture because the amount of solid recovered is much less than the total mass of the solid put into the beaker. The sample must have been separated into its components.
