When a bath bomb comes in contact with water, the baking soda and citric acid react to make carbon dioxide bubbles. This is an acid–base reaction, where baking soda (also called sodium bicarbonate) is a weak base and citric acid is a weak acid.
Answer:
Strong acid
Explanation:
An acid is a substance that interacts with water to produce excess hydroxonium ions in an aqueous solution.
Hydroxonium ions are formed as a result of the chemical bonding between the oxygen of water molecules and the protons released by the acid due to its ionisation. This makes aqueous solution of acids conduct electricity.
A strong acid is one that ionizes almost completely. Examples are:
1. Hydrochloric acid
2. Tetraoxosulphate (VI) acid
3. Trioxonitrate (V) acid
4. Hydroiodic acid
5. Hydrobromic acid
Answer:
b. 3.66x10²³ atoms of chromium.
Explanation:
First we calculate how many moles are there in 31 grams of chromium, using its molar mass:
- Molar Mass of Chromium = 51 g/mol (This can be found on any periodic table)
- 31 g ÷ 51 g/mol = 0.608 mol
Then we <u>calculate how many atoms are there in 0.608 moles</u>, using <em>Avogadro's number</em>:
- 0.608 mol * 6.023x10²³ atoms/mol = 3.66x10²³ atoms
The correct answer is thus option b. 3.66x10²³ atoms of chromium.
You would think that the bag of nails would have more mass but their masses are identical. <span>If you were to put them both in a vacuum chamber and let them fall from a great height, they would fall the same speed. The vacuum chamber would suck all of the air out of the cotton balls, thus making it heavier and weigh the same as the bag of nails.
Hopefully this is helpful and makes sense.</span>
