Hydrogen chloride gas is dissolved in water to produce a solution of hydrochloric acid.

Chemistry
1 answer:
asambeis [7]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Water is a polar solvent

Explanation:

We must know that pure dry hydrogen chloride gas does not show any acidic property.

In fact, when hydrogen chloride is dissolved in water, it breaks up into H3O^+ ions and Cl^- ions. This is possible because water is a polar solvent and assists the ionization of HCl.

In nonpolar solvents such as benzene, hydrogen chloride gas is not ionized hence it does not show any acidic property in a benzene solution.

The atomic nucleus contains?
ycow [4]
The nucleus, that dense central core of the atom, contains both protons and neutrons. Electrons are outside the nucleus in energy levels. Protons have a positive charge,neutrons have no charge, and electrons have a negative charge. A neutral atom contains equal numbers of protons and electrons.

Covalent bonds are in the air you breathe and the water you drink. How are covalent bonds formed?
kramer
Covalent bond is the term that is being used to describe the bonds in the compounds that are created due to the sharing of one or more electrons. One of the best example of the simplest covalent bond is the bond that is being created when two isolated hydrogen atoms come together to form an H2 molecule. An isolated hydrogen atom has one proton and electron being combined by the force of attraction from the opposite-charged articles. When a pair of isolated hydrogen atom combines, two forces of attraction are created coming from each of the isolated hydrogen atom.

An oxybromate compound, kbrox, where x is unknown, is analyzed and found to contain 43.66 % br.
aniked [119]

Answer is: an oxybromate compound is KBrO₄ (x = 4).

ω(Br) = 43.66% ÷ 100%.

ω(Br) = 0.4366; mass percentage of bromine.

If we take 100 grams of compound:

m(Br) = ω(Br) · 100 g.

m(Br) = 0.4366 · 100 g.

m(Br) = 43.66 g; mass of bromine.

n(Br) = m(Br) ÷ M(Br).

n(Br) = 43.66 g ÷ 79.9 g/mol,

n(Br) = 0.55 mol; amoun of bromine.

From chemical formula (KBrOₓ), amount of potassium is equal to amount of bromine: n(Br) = n(K).

m(K) = 0.55 mol · 39.1 g/mol.

m(K) = 21.365 g; mass of potassium in the compound.

m(O) = 100 g - 21.365 g - 43.66 g.

m(O) =34.97 g; mass of oxygen.

n(O) = 34.97 g ÷ 16 g/mol.

n(O) = 2.185 mol.

n(K) : n(Br) : n(O) = 0.55 mol : 0.55 mol : 2.185 mol /÷ 0.55 mol.

n(K) : n(Br) : n(O) = 1 : 1 : 4.
