What determines the strength of a solute as an electrolyte?

timama [110]

Solutes become electrolytes by ionizing. Ionic compounds therefore make good electrolytes; covalent compounds don't.

When you need to produce a variety of diluted solutions of a solute, you can dilute a series of stock solutions. A stock solutio

8090 [49]

Answer:

Volume of stock solution needed = 6.0299 mL

Explanation:

Dilution consists of lowering the amount of solute per unit volume of solution. It is achieved by adding more diluent to the same amount of solute.

This is deduced when thinking that both the dissolution at the beginning and at the end will have the same amount of moles.

Data:

M1 = 6.01 M stock solution concentration

M2 = 0.3624 M diluted solution concentration

V2 =100 mL diluted solution volume

V1 = ? stock solution volume

M1 * V1 = M2 * V2

$V1=\frac{M2*V2}{M1} =\frac{0.3624M*100mL}{6.01M} =6.0299 mL$

A scientist measures the standard enthalpy change for the following reaction to be -17.2 kJ : Ca(OH)2(aq) 2 HCl(aq)CaCl2(s)

elixir [45]

Answer: $\Delta H^{0}=-173.72$ kJ/mol

Explanation: Enthalpy Change is the amount of energy in a reaction - absorption or release - at a constant pressure. So, Standard Enthalpy of Formation is how much energy is necessary to form a substance.

The standard enthalpy of formation of HCl is calculated as:

$\Delta ^{0}=\Sigma H_{products}-\Sigma H_{reactants}$

$Ca(OH)_{2}_{(aq)}+2HCl_{(aq)}$ → $CaCl_{2}_{(s)}+2H_{2}O_{(l)}$

Standard Enthalpy of formation for the other compounds are:

Calcium Hydroxide: $\Delta H^{0}=$ -1002.82 kJ/mol

Calcium chloride: $\Delta H^{0}=$ -795.8 kJ/mol

Water: $\Delta H^{0}=$ -285.83 kJ/mol

Enthalpy is given per mol, which means we have to multiply by the mols in the balanced equation.

Calculating:

$-17.2=[-795.8+2(285.85)]-[-1002.82+2\Delta H]$

$-17.2=-1367.46+1002.82-2\Delta H$

$2\Delta H=17.2-364.64$

$\Delta H=-173.72$

So, the standard enthalpy of formation of HCl is -173.72 kJ/mol

Suppose Highlinium-308 can also undergo positron emission

____ [38]

Answer:

The atomic number of burienium will be 307.

Explanation:

During positron emission proton is converted into the neutron and one electron neutrino with positron is released. It means the atomic number will be reduce by one and atomic mass remain same.

For example:

²³Mg₁₂ → ₁₁Na²³+ e⁺+ Ve

Similarly, when highlinium-308 undergoes positron emission the new element burienium is produced and the atomic number will be 307 while atomic mass remain same.

Properties of beta radiations:

Beta radiations are result from the beta decay in which electron is ejected. The neutron inside of the nucleus converted into the proton an thus emit the electron which is called β particle.

The mass of beta particle is smaller than the alpha particles.

They can travel in air in few meter distance.

These radiations can penetrate into the human skin.

The sheet of aluminium is used to block the beta radiation
