When H forms a bond with H2O to form the hydronium ion H3O , this bond is called a coordinate covalent bond because

Evgen [1.6K]2 years ago

Answer:

both bonding electrons come from the oxygen atom

Explanation:

A coordinate covalent bond is said to be formed when an electron pair is donated into a empty orbital of an atom from a filled orbital of another atom.

In this type of covalent bond, the shared electron pair is furnished by only one of the bonding species.

The bonding between H^+ and H2O to form H3O^+ involves donation of a lone pair of electrons on oxygen into the empty 1s orbital of  H^+ hence the two bonding electrons come from oxygen. This is why the bond is called a coordinate covalent bond.

How did I get the sand out the mixture ?
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

They are called homogenous mixtures. If you put sand into a glass of water, it is considered to be a mixture. You can always tell a mixture, because each of the substances can be separated from the group in different physical ways. You can always get the sand out of the water by filtering the water away.

You need to prepare a solution with a specific concentration of Na+Na+ ions; however, someone used the end of the stock solution
babymother [125]

Explanation:

Ionic equation

NaCl(aq) --> Na+(aq) + Cl-(aq)

Na2SO4(aq) --> 2Na+(aq) + SO4^2-(aq)

In NaCl solution, 1 mole of Na+ is dissociated in 1 liter of solution while in Na2SO4, 2 moles of Na+ is dissociated in 1 liter of solution.

Molecular weight of NA2SO4 = (23*2) + 32 + (16*4)

= 142 g/mol

Molecular weight of NaCl = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5 g/mol

Masses

% Mass of NA+ in Na2SO4 = mass of Na+/total mass of Na2SO4 * 100

= 46/142 * 100

= 32.4%

% Mass of NA+ in NaCl = mass of Na+/total mass of NaCl * 100

= 23/58.5 * 100

= 39.3%

Therefore, the % mass of Na+ in NaCl and Na2SO4 are different so it cannot be used.

You have a 250. -ml sample of 1. 28 m acetic acid (ka = 1. 8 x´ 10–5). calculate the ph of the best buffer.
Nadya [2.5K]

The ph of the best buffer is 4.74

The given acetic acid is a weak acid

The equation of the pH of the buffer

pH = pKa + log ( conjugate base / weak acid ).

For best buffer the concentration of the weak acid and its conjugate base is equal.

pH = pKa + log 1

pH = pKa + 0

pH = pKa

given Ka = 1.8 × 10⁻⁵

pKa = - log ka

pH = -log ( 1.8 × 10⁻⁵ )

pH = 4. 74

Hence the pH of the best buffer is 4.74
