Explain why HCl can be a strong electrolyte, but a dilute HCl solution can be a poor conductor?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alenkasestr [34]3 years ago

Answer:

Because as the concentration is diminished, the capacity to transfer electricity is diminished as well.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since electrolytes are substances that are able to conduct the electricity in aqueous media (solutions in which water is the the solvent) because they have the capacity to form ions with both positive and negative charges, due to the fact that HCl is a strong acid, we notice it is fully ionized in solution and therefore it is a strong electrolyte. However, when the concentration is diminished, we can notice that strength is diminished as well because less ions will have the capacity to transfer the electricity and therefore it'd become a poor conductor or weak electrolyte.

Best regards!

Zinaida [17]
The bubbles that were observed after the mixing of the two substances is one of the products of the reaction. It is the carbon dioxide that is produced. To determine the mass of this gas produced, we need to remember the Law of conservation of mass where mass cannot be created or destroyed. With this, we can say that the total mass that goes in a process should be equal to the mass that is goes out of the process no matter what the reaction is. We do as follows:

Mass of reactants = mass of products
11.00 + 44.55 = 51.04 + mass of carbon dioxide
mass of carbon dioxide = 4.51 g

Which of the following solutions would have the lowest freezing point? 1.0 nacl 3.0 nacl 2.0 nacl or 5.0 nacl
Scilla [17]
The solution that will have the lowest freezing point is 5.0 SODIUM CHLORIDE. 
Adding solute to solvents usually result in the depression of the freezing point. The higher the quantity of the solute that is added, the lower the freezing point of the solution.

What is the Bayer process explain it
Vlada [557]

Answer:

The Bayer process is the principal industrial means of refining bauxite to produce alumina (aluminium oxide) and was developed by Carl Josef Bayer. Bauxite, the most important ore of aluminium, contains only 30–60% aluminium oxide (Al2O3), the rest being a mixture of silica, various iron oxides, and titanium dioxide.
