A supersaturated solution holds
less solute than it normally can is false. It actually contains more solute
that it normally can. Having less solute than it normally can is an unsaturated
solution. And when it has the exact amount of solute, it is a saturated solution.
Answer:
1. nitric acid: sa
2. perchloric acid: sa
3. hydrofluoric acid: wa
Explanation:
A strong acid (sa) is the one that is completely dissociated into ions in water. Conversely, a weak acid (wa) is not completely dissociated in water.
From the options, the strong acids are:
1. nitric acid (HNO₃). It dissociates completely into ions when is dissolved in water, as follows:
HNO₃ → H⁺ + NO₃⁻
2. perchloric acid (HClO₄). It is completely dissociated in water as follows:
HClO₄ → H⁺ + ClO₄⁻
The weak acid is hydrofluoric acid (HF). In water, only a small proportion is dissociated into ions. The proportion of ions formed is given by the equilibrium constant Ka. The dissociation is written by using double arrows:
HF ⇄ H⁺ + F⁻
Answer:
The technique is called weighing by difference
