Answer:

2K +F₂→ 2KF

Explanation:

When we balance an equation, we are trying to ensure that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the arrow.

On the left side of the arrow, there is 1 K atom and 2 F atoms. On the right, there is 1 K and 1 F atom.

Since the number of K atoms is currently balanced, balance the number of F atoms.

K +F₂→ 2KF

Now, that the number of F atoms is balanced on both sides, check if the number of K atoms are balanced.

<u>Left</u>

K atoms: 1

F atoms: 2

<u>Right</u>

K atoms: 2

F atoms: 2

The number of K atoms is not balanced.

2K +F₂→ 2KF

<u>Left</u>

K atoms: 2

F atoms: 2

<u>Right</u>

K atoms: 2

F atoms: 2

The equation is now balanced.

chegg 2. What pattern did you observe measuring cell voltages with a silver electrode versus with a platinum/H2 electrode

chegg 2. What pattern did you observe measuring cell voltages with a silver electrode versus with a platinum/H2 electrode There is a difference of -0.786 V in silver

<h3>What is cell voltages ?</h3>

The difference in electric potential between two points, also known as voltage, electric potential difference, electric pressure, or electric tension, is what determines how much labor is required to move a test charge between the two sites in a static electric field. Volt is the name of the derived unit for voltage (potential difference) in the International System of Units. Joules per coulomb, or 1 volt equals 1 joule (of work) for 1 coulomb, is how work per unit charge is stated in SI units (of charge). The quantum Hall and Josephson effect was first employed in the 1990s, and most recently (in 2019), fundamental physical constants have been added for the definition of all SI units and derived units. Power and current were used in the previous SI definition for volt.

A 25.0 ml sample of 0.150 m benzoic acid is titrated with a 0.150 m naoh solution. what is the ph at the equivalence point? the
Ad libitum [116K]

Solution:

At the equivalence point, moles NaOH = moles benzoic acid  

HA + NaOH ==> NaA + H2O where HA is benzoic acid  

At the equivalence point, all the benzoic acid ==> sodium benzoate  

A^- + H2O ==> HA + OH- (again, A^- is the benzoate anion and HA is the weak acid benzoic acid)  

Kb for benzoate = 1x10^-14/4.5x10^-4 = 2.22x10^-11  

Kb = 2.22x10^-11 = [HA][OH-][A^-] = (x)(x)/0.150  

x^2 = 3.33x10^-12  

x = 1.8x10^-6 = [OH-]  

pOH = -log [OH-] = 5.74  

pH = 14 - pOH = 8.26
