Water is a polar molecule, meaning the electrons that are shared between the atoms aren't shared equally so oxygen attracts more

electrons than hydrogen. What analogy best compares this?

Answer:

Magnet with a positive and a negative pole

Explanation:

A great analogy to demonstrate what a polar molecule looks like is to imagine a magnet. A magnet has one positively charged end and one negatively charged end, two poles, that is.

Imagine that we have a magnet of a shape of a prism (water molecule has a bent shape). The two base vertices of the face of the triangle are positively charged, that's because hydrogen is less electronegative than oxygen and, hence, the two hydrogen atoms are partially positively charged in a water molecule.

Oxygen is more electronegative than hydrogen meaning it has a greater electron-withdrawing force, so electrons are closer to oxygen within the O-H bonds. Oxygen, as a result, becomes partially negatively charged, so it's our negative pole of the magnet.

An ore is to be analyzed for its iron content by an oxidation-reduction titration with permanganate ion. A 4.230 g sample of the
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The balanced redox reaction equation is;

8H+ + MnO4^- + 5Fe2+ ---------> Mn2+ + 5Fe3+ + 4H2O

Amount of KMnO4 reacted = 31.60/1000 * 0.05120 = 1.62 * 10^-3 moles

From the reaction equation;

1 mole of MnO4^- reacted with 5 moles of Fe2+

1.62 * 10^-3 moles will react with 1.62 * 10^-3 moles * 5/1 = 8.1 * 10^-3 moles

Mass of Fe2+ reacted = 8.1 * 10^-3 moles  *  56 g/mol

Mass of Fe2+ reacted = 0.45 g

Amount of iron in the sample =  0.45 g

Percentage of iron in the sample;

0.45 g/4.230 g  * 100 = 10.6 %

What is the pH of a solution has a hydrogen ion concentration of 6.3 x 10–10 M? Show work
NISA [10]

Answer:

pOH = 4.8

pH = 9.2

Explanation:

Given data:

Hydrogen ion concentration = 6.3×10⁻¹⁰M

pH of solution = ?

pOH of solution = ?

Solution:

Formula:

pH = -log [H⁺]

[H⁺] = Hydrogen ion concentration

We will put the values in formula to calculate the pH.

pH = -log [6.3×10⁻¹⁰]

pH = 9.2

To calculate the pOH:

pH + pOH = 14

We will rearrange this equation.

pOH = 14 - pH

now we will put the values of pH.

pOH = 14 - 9.2

pOH = 4.8

1. Addition of which of the following will increase the solubility of CaCO3 in water? Consider the equilibrium process:
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer: HCl

Explanation:

calcium carbonate dissolves in HCl acid producing CO 2 gas. It will not dissolve in pure water. The Ksp for calcium carbonate in water is 3.4 x 10-9 moldm-3 which is very low. What takes place here is actually a chemical reaction:

CaCO 3 (s) + 2HCl(aq) → CaCl 2 (aq) + H 2CO 3(aq)

This reaction accounts for the solubility of the Calcium carbonate in HCl and not in pure water.
