Q 1. Element M is a metal that forms compounds of the type MX2, MX3, and MX4, where X is a Chlorine (Cl).

Chemistry
1 answer:
SOVA2 [1]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The ionic radius of metal M decreases as the charge on the metal M increases. The ionic radius is generally defined as the distance between the nucleus and the outermost electron of the ion. Hence, ionic radius becomes much lesser as the magnitude of the positive charge increases.

It is obvious  from the various formulae of metal chlorides in the question that the metal forms cations M^2+, M^3+ and M^4+ respectively. The order of decreasing ionic radius of the compounds is;

MX2 > MX3 > MX4

How many protons, neutrons, and electrons could an isotope of this atom contain?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The atomic number on the Periodic Table identifies the number of protons in any atom of that element. Copper, atomic number 29, has 29 protons. Finding the atomic number of an element reveals the number of protons.

To find the number of neutrons in the atom, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass.

Glucose, c6h12o6, is used as an energy source by the human body. the overall reaction in the body is described by the equation
Art [367]
Glucose is carbohydrate and a simple sugar that is very important to the human body.

Energy is produced for the cells in the body through the process of metabolism which oxidizes glucose to water, carbon dioxide, and some nitrogen compounds. 

The general chemical reaction equation for metabolism is:
 
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O

Acetic acid has a pKa of 4.74. Buffer A: 0.10 M HC2H3O2, 0.10 M NaC2H3O2 Buffer B: 0.30 M HC2H3O2, 0.30 M NaC2H3O2 Buffer C: 0.5
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Buffer B has the highest buffer capacity.

Buffer C has the lowest buffer capacity.

Explanation:

An effective weak acid-conjugate base buffer should have pH equal to pK_{a} of the weak acid. For buffers with the same pH, higher the concentrations of the components in a buffer, higher will the buffer capacity.

Acetic acid is a weak acid and CH_{3}COO^{-} is the conjugate base So, all the given buffers are weak acid-conjugate base buffers. The pH of these buffers are expressed as (Henderson-Hasselbalch):

pH=pK_{a}(CH_{3}COOH)+log\frac{[CH_{3}COO^{-}]}{[CH_{3}COOH]}

pK_{a}(CH_{3}COOH)=4.74

Buffer A:    pH=4.74+log(\frac{0.10}{0.10})=4.74

Buffer B:   pH=4.74+log(\frac{0.30}{0.30})=4.74

Buffer C:   pH=4.74+log(\frac{0.10}{0.50})=4.04

So, both buffer A and buffer B has same pH value which is also equal to pK_{a} . Buffer B has higher concentrations of the components as compared to buffer A, Hence, buffer B has the highest buffer capacity.

The pH of buffer C is far away from pK_{a} . Therefore, buffer C has the lowest buffer capacity.
