Conduction is the movement of heat along a gradient within a solid. So the inner part of the teacup against the hot liquid will transfer that heat to the cooler outer part of the teacup (where it will be lost via thermal radiation). Convection is the movement of molecules of a liquid or gas within itself. So it’s up tell me if I’m wrong please

Describe what happens when a bond is created between magnesium and bromine. Be specific and explain in terms of electrons.

Allushta [10]

Answer: Magnesium and Bromine/MgBr2 = Ionic compounds

Explanation: When atoms form together they can form between Ionic Compounds and molecules; this could depend on if they're joined by Covalent bonds as well because when atoms form with Covalent bonds, it forms Molecules.

A 1.00 liter solution contains 0.24 M hypochlorous acid and 0.31 M sodium hypochlorite. If 0.160 moles of potassium hydroxide ar

ryzh [129]

Explanation:

When OH- (as in potassium hydroxide) is added, it reacts with the acid (HOCl) to reduce the amount of HOCl and increase the concentration of sodium hypochlorite.

Potassium hydroxide will react with the hypochlorous acid to produce hypochlorite ions. In the process, some of the weak acid will be consumed, along with the added strong base.

This occurs as follows:

HClO(aq) + KOH(aq) → KClO(aq) + H2O(l)

since water is formed, this maintains the pH. Thus ...

A. The number of moles of HClO will decrease. - TRUE

B. The number of moles of ClO- will increase. - TRUE

C. The equilibrium concentration of H3O+ will remain the same. - TRUE

D. The pH will decrease. - FALSE

E. The ratio of [HClO] / [ClO-] will decrease. -TRUE. It will decrease as HClO goes down and ClO- goes up.
