An acid is a substance that donates hydrogen ions. Because of this, when an acid is dissolved in water, the balance between hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions is shifted. Now there are more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions in the solution.

The viscosities of several liquids are being compared. All the liquids are poured down a slope with equal path lengths. The liqu
boyakko [2]

Explanation:

The property of a substance to resist the flow of motion is known as viscosity. And, more is the density of a substance more will be its viscosity.  

Whereas, lesser is the density of a substance then it is easy for the substance to move.

This means that more is the viscosity of a substance least will be its flow and when a substance has lesser viscosity then it will readily flow from one point to another.

Thus, we can conclude that the viscosities of several liquids are being compared. All the liquids are poured down a slope with equal path lengths. The liquid with the highest viscosity will reach the bottom last.

Two substances with empirical formula HNO are hyponitrous acid (M = 62.04 g/mol) and nitroxyl (M = 31.02 g/mol).(d) When hyponit
astra-53 [7]

The cis and Trans-forms of hyponitrous acid are given below in the attached document.

Hyponitrous acid has the chemical formula H2N2O2 or HON=NOH. 62.028 g/mol is the molecular weight of it. Additionally, it can take either a trans or cis form. When dry, the trans-hyponitrous acid crystallizes into white, explosive particles. Additionally, it has a half-life of 16 days at 25oC at a pH 1-3 in aqueous solution and is a weak acid (pKa1=7.21, pKa2=11.54). It decomposes into nitrous oxide and water. It is incorrect to think of N2O as the anhydride of H2N2O2. However, even though cis acid is unknown, we can still get its sodium salts.

Based on formal charges, draw the most preferred Lewis structure for the chlorate ion, ClO3−. To add lone pairs, click the butto
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

The structure is shown in the diagram.

Explanation:

Lewis structure : In order to draw Lewis structure we will calculate the total number of valence electrons in the molecule.

The valence electrons from Cl : 7

The valence electrons from O = 3 X 6 = 18

Charge negative so more electrons = 2

total electrons = 7 + 18 +2 = 27

Now we will distribute the electrons on each atom and in between atoms as shown in the diagram.

Which of the following requires an oxidizing agent?
laila [671]
Correct Answer: First Option

An oxidizing agent causes the oxidation of the other atom/element by itself being reduced. In simple words we can state that oxidizing agent gains electrons from the other atom/element i.e. the other atom loses electrons.

From the given options we have to find in which of them electrons are being removed. When the electrons are removed, the number of protons in the atom will be more than the number of electrons. As a result the net charge on the atom will be positive. 

First option lists such a change. Initially charge on Al is neutral, 3 electrons are removed and it get +3 charge. This shows that Al is being oxidized, so it needs an oxidizing agent.
