Methyl orange (HMO) is an acid-base indicator. Its two forms in solution are HMO (red) and MO- (yellow). When HMO is added to di

Anna007 [38]

Answer:add acid

Explanation:

Methyl orange is red in acid and yellow in base. When added to distilled water and the colour turns yellow, it means it is in its anion form. The equilibrium can be shifted towards the acid form (HMO) by adding acid. The acid will protonate the indicator shifting the position of equilibrium towards the acid side and the solution turns red.

A buffer solution is composed of 4.00 4.00 mol of acid and 3.25 3.25 mol of the conjugate base. If the p K a pKa of the acid is

Reika [66]

Answer: The pH of the buffer is 4.61

Explanation:

To calculate the pH of acidic buffer, we use the equation given by Henderson Hasselbalch:

$pH=pK_a+\log(\frac{[\text{conjuagate base}]}{[\text{acid}]})$

We are given:

$pK_a$ = negative logarithm of acid dissociation constant of weak acid = 4.70

$[\text{conjuagate base}]}$ = moles of conjugate base = 3.25 moles

$[\text{acid}]$ = Moles of acid = 4.00 moles

pH = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$pH=4.70+\log(\frac{3.25}{4.00})\\\\pH=4.61$

Hence, the pH of the buffer is 4.61

10. Which of the following best describes the reaction 2VO3– (aq) + Zn (s) + 8H+ (aq) → 2VO2 (aq) + Zn2+ (aq) + 4H2O (l)? ______

Oduvanchick [21]

Correct answer is option E. It is a redox reaction in which Zn is oxidized at the anode, and V is reduced at the cathode.

Reason:
In above reaction, the oxidation state of VO3- is +5, while that of VO2 is +4. Thus there is reduction of V from +5 to +4
In case of Zn, oxidation state of Zn is increased from 0 to +2, Thus process is referred as oxidation.

Ionization energy increases from left to right because the left wants to lose elctrons and the right wants to gain electron

As you go a group it is easier lose lose because the electrons are farther away from the nucleus and there is less attraction from the positive charges.

It should be 3p3. the p level can hold 6 electrons
