Granite is stronger, and it doesn't grow mold in the rain. It also looks better than marble and is easier to carve.
Answer:
398 mL
Explanation:
Using the equation for molarity,
C₁V₁ = C₂V₂ where C₁ = concentration before adding water = 8.61 mol/L and V₁ = volume before adding water, C₂ = concentration after adding water = 1.75 mol/L and V₂ = volume after adding water = 500 mL = 0.5 L
V₂ = V₁ + V' where V' = volume of water added.
So, From C₁V₁ = C₂V₂
V₁ = C₂V₂/C₁
= 1.75 mol/L × 0.5 L ÷ 8.61 mol/L
= 0.875 mol/8.61 mol/L
= 0.102 L
So, V₂ = V₁ + V'
0.5 L = 0.102 L + V'
V' = 0.5 L - 0.102 L
= 0.398 L
= 398 mL
So, we need to add 398 mL of water to the nitric solution.
Answer:
b) 3.10
Explanation:
HF ⇄ H
+ + F
Using Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation:
pH = pKa + log [A-]/[HA].
Where;
pKa = Dissociation constant = -log Ka
Hence, pKa of HF = -log 7.2 x 10^-4 = 3.14266
[A-] = concentration of conjugate base after dissociation = moles of base/total volume
= 0.15 x 0.3/0.8
= 0.05625 M
[HA] = concentration of the acid = moles of acid/total volume
= 0.10 x 0.5/0.8
= 0.0625 M
Note: <em>Total volume = 500 + 300 = 800 mL = 0.8 dm3</em>
pH = 3.14266 + log [0.05625/0.0625]
= 3.14267 + (-0.04575749056)
= 3.09691250944
<em>From all the available options below:</em>
<em>a) 2.97
</em>
<em>b) 3.10
</em>
<em>c) 3.19
</em>
<em>d) 3.22
</em>
<em>e) 3.32</em>
The correct option is b.
Ionic and covalent bonds are both strong intermolecular forces. They are generally both crystalline in structure. But relatively speaking, ionic bonds are much stronger. As a consequence, they have inherent properties of higher boiling points, higher melting points, lower volatility, etc. Also, ionic bonds display conductive properties because they are strong electrolytes. <em>Thus, the answer is 5) higher melting points.</em>
