Explain why it is not possible to draw a skeletal structure for methane.

If hydrofluoric acid is a stronger acid than acetic acid, which statement is most likely true?

Alchen [17]

Answer: The statement conjugate base of hydrofluoric acid is weaker than that of acetic acid is most likely true.

Explanation:

A strong acid upon dissociation gives a weak conjugate base. This can also be said as stronger is the acid, weaker will be its conjugate base or vice-versa.

Hydrofluoric acid is a strong base as it dissociates completely when dissolved in water.

For example, $HF \rightleftharpoons H^{+} + F^{-}$

The conjugate base is $F^{-}$ which is a weak base.

Acetic acid is a weak acid as it dissociates partially when dissolved in water. So, the conjugate base of acetic acid is a strong base.

$CH_{3}COOH \rightarrow CH_{3}COO^{-} + H^{+}$

Thus, we can conclude that the statement conjugate base of hydrofluoric acid is weaker than that of acetic acid is most likely true.

What is the voltage of a galvanic cell made with zinc (zn) and aluminum (al)?

bonufazy [111]

From the reduction standard potentials;
The emf of Zinc = -0.76 V
and the emf of Aluminium = -1.66 V
In a galvanic cell the component with lower standard reduction potential gets oxidized and that it is added to the anode compartment.
Therefore. the voltage of a galvanic cell made with zinc and aluminium will be;
Voltage =Ered- Eoxd
= -0.76 - (-1.66)
= 0.9 V

Do your cells have access to everything they need over the first 4 or 5 hours that you are lost? Yes or No?

77julia77 [94]

Explanation: cell in the body is enclosed by a cell (Plasma) membrane. The cell membrane separates the material outside the cell, extracellular, from the material inside the cell, intracellular. ... All materials within a cell must have access to the cell membrane (the cell's boundary) for the needed exchange

**Answer**: The answer would be Yes I believe

Answer:

1.18x10⁸L of SO₂ and 2.36x10⁸L of H₂S

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

8SO₂(g) + 16H₂S(g) → 16H₂O(l) + 3S₈(s)

To solve this question we must find the moles of S₈ in 4.50x10⁵kg. With these moles and the reaction we can find the moles of SO₂ needed to react (Twice these moles = Moles Of H₂S needed). Using PV = nRT we can find the volume of the gas required:

<em>Moles S₈ - molar mass: 256.52g/mol-</em>

4.50x10⁵kg = 4.50x10⁸g * (1mol / 256.52g) =

1.75x10⁶ moles S₈

<em>Moles SO₂:</em>

1.75x10⁶ moles S₈ * (8mol SO₂ / 3mol S₈) = 4.68x10⁶ moles SO₂

<em>Moles H₂S:</em>

4.68x10⁶ moles SO₂ * 2 = 9.36x10⁶ moles H₂S

The volume could be obtained as follows:

PV = nRT

V = nRT / P

<em>V is volume in liters</em>

<em>n are moles: 4.68x10⁶ moles SO₂ and 9.36x10⁶ moles H₂S</em>

<em>R is gas constant = 0.082atmL/molK</em>

<em>T is absolute temperature = 22°C + 273.15 = 295.15K</em>

<em>P is pressure = 0.961atm</em>

<em />

Replacing:

Volume SO₂ and H₂S:

4.68x10⁶ moles * 0.082atmL/molK * 295.15K / 0.961atm =

<em>9.36x10⁶ moles H₂S</em> * 0.082atmL/molK * 295.15K / 0.961atm =
