Yup, if you add a catalyst the activation energy needed to overcome is lower to form a reaction.

Which of the following is an example of ionization of an acid?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

NH3(g) + H2O(1) → NH4+(aq) + OH (aq)

HF(aq) + H2O(1) → H3O+(aq) + F (aq)

Explanation:

Acid-base reactions are chemical reactions involving acids and bases. Acids tend to ionize/dissociate in water, a property which determines their strength. Ionization of an acid refers to the acid losing its hydrogen ion (H+) in water solution. An acid ionizes or dissociates to form a conjugate base.

A strong acid is so because it ionizes completely in water i.e. loses all its hydrogen ion (H+) while a weak acid partially ionizes in water.

In the chemical reactions;

1) NH3(g) + H2O(1) → NH4+(aq) + OH (aq)

H20 loses its hydrogen ion (H+) in this reaction to form an anion (OH-). Hence, water (H20) is an acid in this case which ionizes to form a conjugate base (OH-). This is an example of ionization of acid.

2) HF(aq) + H2O(1) → H3O+(aq) + F (aq)

Hydrogen fluoride (HF) loses its hydrogen ion (H+) in the presence of water to form anion (F-). The HF is the acid while F- is it's conjugate base. Thus, an example of ionization of acid

Which of the following trends can be identified on the periodic table?
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

D) atomic radii increase from top to bottom of a group

Explanation:

Atomic radii trend along group:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.

Other options are incorrect because,

A) atomic radii increase from left to right across the period

Correct = atomic radii decreases from left to right across the period

B) ionization energy increases from top to bottom within a family

Correct =  ionization energy decreases from top to bottom within a family

C) electronegativity decreases from left to right across a period

Correct = electronegativity increases from left to right across a period

A chemist needs 1.25 moles of sugar to dissolve in 1 liter of water how many grams of sugar needed
sdas [7]

Answer:

The mass of sugar used is 427.5 grams.

Explanation:

The formula of common sugar is \mathrm{C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}}.

Its molar mass of molecule is 342 grams per mole.

The number of moles of sugar used is equal to '1.25'

\mathbf{Mole=\frac{Mass \ given \ in \ grams}{Molar \ mass \ of \ molecule \ in \ grams}}

\textrm{Mass in grams}=\textrm{Mole} \times \textrm{Molar mass of molecule in grams}

\textrm{Mass in grams}= 1.25\times342

\mathbf{Mass \ in \ grams=427.5 g}

(NOTE : <em>You can calculate molar mass by adding the mass of all the atoms present in the atom. </em>

<em>Mass of Oxygen (O) = 16  ;  Total number of Oxygen atoms present = 11</em>

<em>Mass of Hydrogen (H) =1  ;  Total number of Hydrogen Atoms present = 22</em>

<em>Mass of Carbon (C) = 12   ;  Total number of Carbon atoms present = 12</em>

<em>Total mass of molecule = 12 × 12 + 1 × 22 + 16 × 11 = 342</em>)

Dimethyl sulfoxide is an important polar aprotic solvent that can dissolve both polar and nonpolar compounds and is miscible in
lesya [120]

Answer:

The structure is shown below.

Explanation:

To draw a structure first we need to know its molecular formula, which is C2H6SO for dimethyl sulfoxide. The central atom is sulfur, which is bonded to an oxygen and with two methyl groups (CH3).

Sulfur has 6 electrons in its valence shell, as so oxygen. To complete the octet of oxygen, 2 electrons will be shared by sulfur with it. So, it remains 4 electrons at the central atom. Carbon has 4 electrons in its valence shell, so it needs more 4 to be stable, and is already sharing 3 electrons with the hydrogens, thus, sulfur will share one electron with each one of them.

So, it will remain 2 nonbonding electrons in the central atom. According to the VSPER theory, to minimize formal charges, the structure would be a trigonal pyramid, but, the double bonding with oxygen has a large volume, then the geometry will be trigonal, as shown below.
