Select the correct answer. Which characteristic is a property of water?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Dafna1 [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: A. It is made of polar molecules.

Explanation:

A polar molecule refers to a molecule that has a covalent bond but has an uneven distribution of electrons due to an atom in the molecule having strong electronegativity which will attract more of the electrons from the other atom.

Water is such a molecule because Oxygen has strong electronegativity which leads to electrons being pulled to it.

C. Lewis acid

D. Lewis base

3. HNO_2(aq)+C_2H_5NH_2(aq)\rightarrow NO_2^-(aq) + C_2H_5NH_3^+(aq)

Here underlined is C_2H_5NH_2

A. Brønsted-Lowry acid

B. Brønsted-Lowry base

C. Lewis acid

D. Lewis base

Answer: 1. Brønsted-Lowry acid

2. Lewis base

3. Brønsted-Lowry base

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

1.  HCH_3CO_2(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow CH_3CO^{2-}(aq)+NH_4^+aq)

As HCH_3CO_2(aq) is donating a proton , it acts as a bronsted acid.

2. BH_3(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow BH_3NH_3(aq)

As NH_3 contains a lone pair of electron on nitrogen , it can easily donate electrons to BH_3 and act as lewi base.

3.  HNO_2(aq)+C_2H_5NH_2(aq)\rightarrow NO_2^-(aq) + C_2H_5NH_3^+(aq)

As C_2H_5NH_2(aq) is accepting a proton , it acts as a bronsted base.

A gas that effuses through a porous cylinder 1.87 times faster than chlorine gas. what is the molar mass and identity.
Rufina [12.5K]
From the Graham's law of effusion;
R1/R2 = √MM2/√MM1
Molar mass of chlorine gas is 71
Therefore;
1.87= √ 71 /√mm1
= 1.87² = 71/mm1 
mm1 = 71/1.87²
         = 71/3.4969
         = 20.3
Thus, the molar mass of the other gas is 20.3 , and i think the gas is neon

Consider the following reaction at equilibrium. What effect will increasing the pressure of the reaction mixture have on the sys
8090 [49]

Answer:

Choice d. No effect will be observed as long as other factors (temperature, in particular) are unchanged.

Explanation:

The equilibrium constant of a reaction does not depend on the pressure. For this particular reaction, the equilibrium quotient is:

Q = \displaystyle \frac{[\mathrm{SO_2\, (g)}]}{[\mathrm{O_2\, (g)}]}.

Note that the two sides of this balanced equation contain an equal number of gaseous particles. Indeed, both [\mathrm{SO_2\, (g)}] and [\mathrm{O_2\, (g)}] will increase if the pressure is increased through compression. However, because \rm SO_2\, (g) and \rm O_2\, (g) have the same coefficients in the equation, their concentrations are raised to the same power in the equilibrium quotient Q.

As a result, the increase in pressure will have no impact on the value of Q\!. If the system was already at equilibrium, it will continue to be at an equilibrium even after the change to its pressure. Therefore, no overall effect on the equilibrium position should be visible.

A student measures the mass of a 6.0 cm3 block of brown sugar to be 10.0 g. What is the density of the brown sugar?
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

1.67g/cm3

Explanation:

The formula for density is d=\frac{m}{v} . The m variable stands for mass and the v variable stands for volume.

The mass of the brown sugar is 10.0g and the volume is 6.0cm3, so we can plug those values into the equation.

d=\frac{10g}{6cm^{3} }

d=1.67\frac{g}{cm^{3} }

Rounded to 3 significant figures, the density of the block of brown sugar is 1.67 g/cm3. If the mass is in grams and the volume is in cm3, the unit for the final answer is \frac{g}{cm^{3} } (grams per centimetres cubed).
