ruslelena [56]3 years ago
6 0

your answer will be :

B. <u>Na has a lower</u> <u>electronegativity than H</u>

because Na belongs to alkali metals which are least electronegative (most electro positive) but hydrogen is a non metal, it has higher electronegativity as compared to metals like Sodium (Na).

A solution that is 0.20 m in hcho2 and 0.15 m in nacho2 find ph
Mashutka [201]
We are given
0.2 M HCHO2 which is formic acid, a weak acid
and
0.15 M NaCHO2 which is a salt which can be formed by reacting HCHO2 and NaOH

The mixture of the two results to a basic buffer solution
To get the pH of a base buffer, we use the formula
pH = 14 - pOH = 14 - (pKa - log [salt]/[base])

We need the pKa of HCO2
From, literature, pKa = 1.77 x 10^-4
Substituting into the equation
pH = 14 - (1.77 x 10^-4 - log 0.15/0.2)
pH = 13.87

So, the pH of the buffer solution is 13.87
A pH of greater than 7 indicates that the solution is basic and a pH close to 14 indicates high alkalinity. This is due to the buffering effect of the salt on the base.

Which period is older than the Triassic period? Cambrian Cretaceous Jurassic Paleogene.
scoundrel [369]

The Triassic period is one of the geological periods and is the shortest of the Mesozoic era. Cambrian is the older era than the Triassic period.

<h3>What is Cambrian and triassic period?</h3>

The Triassic period existed 250 -200 million years ago and started after the vastest and most extreme devastation ever. It is the 1st period of the Mesozoic and is known for the movement of the Dinosaurs on the land, flying pterosaurs and swimming plesiosaurs and ichthyosaurs.

The Cambrian is the period of the Paleozoic era and is the most important period because of the appearance of many animals. In this period, the temperature raised on the planet and the ice sheets melted at a very dangerous rate leading to mass devastation.

Therefore, option A. <u>Cambrian</u> is older than the Triassic period.

Element abundant in the body are not abundant on Earth. True or False?
Lena [83]
False. The element abundant in our body is oxygen and on earth, it is still oxygen. The body is more than 50% water. A water molecule is 11% hydrogen and the rest is oxygen. That is why you can expect oxygen to be abundant in the body. Same is true with the earth. Majority of the oxygen is from the bodies of water the earth is rich of.
