Barium nitrate has the formula Ba( NO3)2. Which statement is true about barium nitrate?
OLga [1]
I found these four statements for that question:

Each molecule contains four different elements.

Each molecule contains three atoms.

Each molecule contains seven different bonds.

Each molecule contains six oxygen atoms.

The last one is true. Each molecule contains six oxygen atoms.
The number to the right of O and of (NO3) ares subscripts.


The chemical formula uses subscripts to indicate the number of atoms.



The subscript 2 in (NO3)2 means that there are two NO3 radicals.


And the subscript 3 to the right of O means that each NO3 radical has three atoms of O.

Then, the number of atoms of O is 2 * 3 = 6.


So, the true statement is the last one: each molecule of Ba (NO3)2 has six atoms of O.


From that molecule you can also tell:

- Each molecule contains one atom of barium

- Each molecule contains two atoms of nitrogen

- Each molecule contains two NO3 radicals

A generic weak acid with formula HA has a Ka = 2.76 x 10-8. Calculate the Kb for the conjugate base of the acid.
Reika [66]

Answer:

3.62x10⁻⁷ = Kb

Explanation:

The acid equilibrium of a weak acid, HX, is:

HX + H₂O ⇄ X⁻ + H₃O⁺

Where Ka = [X⁻] [H₃O⁺] / [HX]

And basic equilibrium of the conjugate base, is:

X⁻ + H₂O ⇄ OH⁻ + HX

Where Kb = [OH⁻] [HX] / [X⁻]

To convert Ka to Kb we must use water equilibrium:

2H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻

Where Kw = 1x10⁻¹⁴ = [OH⁻] [H₃O⁺]

Thus, we can obtain:

Kw = Ka*Kb

Solving for Kb:

Kw / Ka = Kb

1x10⁻¹⁴ /  2.76x10⁻⁸ =

3.62x10⁻⁷ = Kb

A pure white crystalline compound was found to melt at 112.5-113.0oC when taken on a melting point apparatus, and on further hea
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

According to the question, the determined melting point of the compound is 112.5-113.0oC. When the solidified compound was retried, the melting point was found to be 133.6-154.5oC. This greater range higher than  112°C is caused by reusing samples leads to errors.

A pure sample is known by its sharp melting point. A pure sample does not melt over a large range. We can see this in the predetermined melting points of the pure sample(112.5-113.0oC).

However, reusing a sample introduces errors because the pure sample may become contaminated leading to a larger and higher range of melting point (133.6-154.5oC) which is far above  112°C.
