Answer: A. It can be found on the periodic table. E. It is made of only one type of atom.

Explanation: Element is the pure substance which is made up of similar atoms and cannot be separated into its components. Example : Al

Compound is the pure substance which is made up by combination of two or more elements in a fixed ratio by mass. Example : Al_2O_3

A) Every element can be found on the periodic table.

B) Element can be a solid, liquid or a gas.

C) Elements can be separated into different components as it is made up of only single type of atoms.

D) Only solids have fixed shape and volume.

E) Elements are made up of only one type of atoms.

What is the pOH of a 0.150 M solution of potassium nitrite? (Ka HNO2 = 4.5 x 10−4 )
yanalaym [24]

Answer:

11.9 is the pOH of a 0.150 M solution of potassium nitrite.

Explanation:

Solution :  Given,

Concentration (c) = 0.150 M

Acid dissociation constant = k_a=4.5\times 10^{-4}

The equilibrium reaction for dissociation of HNO_2 (weak acid) is,

                           HNO_2+H_2O\rightleftharpoons NO_2^-+H_3O^+

initially conc.         c                       0         0

At eqm.              c(1-\alpha)                c\alpha        c\alpha

First we have to calculate the concentration of value of dissociation constant (\alpha ).

Formula used :

k_a=\frac{(c\alpha)(c\alpha)}{c(1-\alpha)}

Now put all the given values in this formula ,we get the value of dissociation constant (\alpha ).

4.5\times 10^{-4}=\frac{(0.150\alpha)(0.150\alpha)}{0.150(1-\alpha)}

4.5\times 10^{-4} - 4.5\times 10^{-4}\alpha =0.150\alpha ^2

0.150\alpha ^2+4.5\times 10^{-4}\alpha-4.5\times 10^{-4}=0

By solving the terms, we get

\alpha=0.0533

No we have to calculate the concentration of hydronium ion or hydrogen ion.

[H^+]=c\alpha=0.150\times 0.0533=0.007995 M

Now we have to calculate the pH.

pH=-\log [H^+]

pH=-\log (0.007995 M)

pH=2.097\approx 2.1

pH + pOH = 14

pOH =14 -2.1 = 11.9

Therefore, the pOH of the solution is 11.9

Describe in general terms the structure of ionic solids such as nacl
allochka39001 [22]
<span>Ionic compounds are chemical compounds in which ions are held together in a lattice structure by ionic bonds. They have a high melting and boiling point, and they have a high hardness and are very brittle. The cations and anions are stuck together in a sense. So in this case, sodium (Na) is attracted to Chlorine (Cl).</span>

What is the active element in most photovoltaic cells?.
jonny [76]

Answer:

if you mutliply 8x2 it would be 16 and half of 16 is 8 and if you multiply that by 2 you get 16 again and then if you multiply that by 2 it comes out to 32 then devide that by 2 and you get 16 then divide again and you get 8
