Answer:
A positive ions is always smaller than the corresponding atom.
A negative ion is always larger than the corresponding atom.
Explanation:
The reason for this is that, when a positive ion is formed, a full shell is usually removed with its electrons thereby reducing the size of the electron cloud and decreasing the size of the electron cloud.
A negative ion is formed by addition of more electrons to the electron cloud hence it spreads out. Interelectronic repulsion accounts for the larger size of the negative ion.
Answer:
The mass of water to be added is 2 pounds
Explanation:
The given parameters are;
The mass of the given solution = 2 pounds
The concentration of the given solution = 30%
The desired concentration of the solution = 15%
The mass, m of the acetic acid in the given solution = 30% × 2 pounds
m = 30/100 × 2 pounds = 0.6 pounds
To make a 15% acetic acid solution of acetic acid, the mass X of the required volume, is given as follows;
15% of X = 0.6 pounds
15/100 × X = 3/20 × 0.6 pounds
∴ The mass of the solution required X = 0.6 × 20/3 = 4 pounds
The mass of the solution that will contain 0.6 pounds of acetic acid giving a 15% acetic acid solution is 4 pounds
Therefore, the mass of water to be added to the original solution to make the a 15% acetic acid solution is 2 pounds.
Between 23 and 87%
Sorry if I’m wrong
Potassium hydroxide is a strong base and hydrobromic acid is a strong acid. This implies that the pH of the end-point [neutralization] of their titration will be around pH 7. A good indicator for this kind of pH is bromthymol blue. This is because this indicator changes its colour at pH 7.
