when an ionic or covalent compound is dissolved in water they break apart into ions through process called dissociation ..the ions get attracted by the water molecules and hence they carry polar charges ..and if there is a conduction of electricity. .then we get to know that a compound is dissociated ..

Which of the following is a basic solution? HCl dissolved in water b. household ammonia c. vinegar d. pure water

PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

B. Household ammonia.

Explanation:

NH₃ is a base, so the solution always will be basic.

NH₃ takes the proton from the water. In conclusion we have free OH⁻ in medium, that's why the solution is basic.

NH₃ + H₂O → NH₄⁺ + OH⁻

- HCl + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + Cl⁻

This reaction makes an acid solution, cause the H₃O⁺

- Vinegar is a compound made of acetic acid.

CH₃COOH + H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + CH₃COO⁻

This reaction also makes an acid solution, cause the H₃O⁺

- Pure water makes neutral solution. It is not acid, neither basic.

2H₂O ⇄ H₃O⁺ + OH⁻

Bromine has two isotopes, Br79 and Br81. The isotopes occur in a 50:50 (1:1) ratio. Given that the mass spectrum of bromine cont

AlekseyPX

Answer:

There will be 3 peaks.

Relative height of the atomic peaks would be; 158, 160 and 162

Explanation:

We are told that Bromine has two isotopes namely 79Br and 81Br in a 1 : 1 ratio (50 : 50).

This means that a compound which contains 1 bromine atom will have two peaks in the molecular ion region but it depends on which bromine isotope is contained in the molecular ion.

Thus;

Relative height of atomic peaks is given by;

m/z = 79Br¯ 79Br+ = 158

79Br¯ 81Br+ = 160

81Br¯ 81Br+ = 162
