Write the balanced molecular equation for the acid-base reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of hydrochloric acid (HCl) a

nd sodium hydroxide (NaOH) are mixed.

Answer:

NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H₂O(l)

Explanation:

Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a <u>strong base</u> and hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a <u>strong acid</u>. That means that they are totally dissociated into ions in aqueous solution.

When a solution of NaOH is mixed with a solution of HCl, a neutralization reaction occurs, in which a salt (NaCl) and water (H₂O) are formed.

The <em>balanced molecular equation</em> for this reaction is:

NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) → NaCl(aq) + H₂O(l)

A 0.2688 g sample of a monoprotic acid neutralized 16.4 mL of 0.08133 M KOH solution. Calculate the molar mass of the acid
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

202 g/mol

Explanation:

Let's consider the neutralization between a generic monoprotic acid and KOH.

HA + KOH → KA + H₂O

The moles of KOH that reacted are:

0.0164 L × 0.08133 mol/L = 1.33 × 10⁻³ mol

The molar ratio of HA to KOH is 1:1. Then, the moles of HA that reacted are 1.33 × 10⁻³ moles.

1.33 × 10⁻³ moles of HA have a mass of 0.2688 g. The molar mass of the acid is:

0.2688 g/1.33 × 10⁻³ mol = 202 g/mol

Why it is difficult to accurately represent ammonia two-dimensionally?
Svetlanka [38]
According to the valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSPER) theory, an ammonia molecule <span> has a </span>trigonal pyramidal<span> shape with an experimental bond angle measure of 106.7 degrees. This is why it is difficult to accurately represent ammonia two-dimensionally because the molecular structure entails a 3-D projection with angles in it unlike the linear structure.</span>

The lone pair of electrons in ammonia allows the molecule to: A.assume a planar structure. B.act as an oxidizing agent. C.act as
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

The correct option is: D.act as a Lewis base in water.

Explanation:    

Ammonia is a hydride of nitrogen with the chemical formula NH₃. It is a colorless gas with a characteristic pungent smell. According to the VSEPR theory, it has a trigonal pyramidal structure.  

In water, ammonia acts as a Lewis base due to the presence of lone pair on the nitrogen atom. Lewis bases are electron pair or lone pair donors.

Which element has the greatest density at STP?
son4ous [18]

Answer: Option (4) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

It is known that density is mass divided by volume.

Mathematically,       Density = \frac{mass}{volume}

Since, density is directly proportional to mass. So, more is the mass of an element more will be its density.

Mass of magnesium is 24.305 g/mol.

Mass of barium is 137.327 g/mol.

Mass of beryllium is 9.012 g/mol

Mass of radium is  226 g/mol.

Hence, radium has more mass therefore it will have the greatest density at STP.
