It makes sense that an inner shell electron would be tougher to remove
than a valence electron because the inner shell electron is closer to
the positive nucleus of the atom. Seeing as an electron caries a
negative charge it would be too attracted to the positive core to leave
readily. Also, the inner shell electrons are constantly repelling
electrons outside of it's energy level (however the reason these
electrons outside innershell energy levels don't simply fly away is the
charge of the positive core overcomes the smaller charges of the
comparably negligible inner shell electrons, but that repulsion is still
there so keep that in mind) </span>
Answer:
C.) HOCl Ka=3.5x10^-8
Explanation:
In order to a construct a buffer of pH= 7.0 we need to find the pKa values of all the acids given below
we Know that
pKa= -log(Ka)
therefore
A) pKa of HClO2 = -log(1.2 x 10^-2)
=1.9208
B) similarly PKa of HF= -log(7.2 x 1 0^-4)= 2.7644
C) pKa of HOCl= -log(3.5 x 1 0^-8)= 7.45
D) pKa of HCN = -log(4 x 1 0^-10)= 9.3979
If we consider the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution
The weak acid for making the buffer must have a pKa value near to the desired pH of the weak acid.
So, near to value, pH=7.0. , the only option is HOCl whose pKa value is 7.45.
Hence, HOCl will be chosen for buffer construction.
Because you are never adding more than the substances created, nor are you creating any, but should a chemical reaction take place you could see the liquid change form into a gaseous state and that would result a loss of the liquid volume.
So to wrap it all up you can’t have more liquids than what is already there but you could always lose some due to a chemical change, hence the reason it says an open flask, the chemical change would not be collected, mass would be lost
Answer:
2.68 cm^3
Explanation:
Density= Mass/Volume
so...
8.96 g/cm^3 = 24.01 g/ V
and then u solve so it would be 2.68 cm ^3
((:
(2) three fewer valence electrons is your answer.
