Answer:
- <u><em>You should expect that the ionic bond in LiBr is stronger than the bond in KBr.</em></u>
<u><em /></u>
Explanation:
The<em> ionic bonds</em> are formed by the electrostatic attraction between the ions, cations and anions.
In KBr the cation is K⁺ and the anion is Br⁻.
In LiBr the cation is Li⁺ and the anion is Br⁻.
You must expect that the bond strength depends mainly on the charges present on each ion and the distance between them.
Nevertheless, the effect of the distance between the radius dominate the trendency of the bond strength, which makes that the ionic strength trend be related to the ionic radius trend.
Lithium is a smaller ion than Potassium (both are in the same group and Lithium is above Potassium).
Thus, you should expect that the Li ion is closer to the Br ion than what the K ion is to the Br ion and expect that the bond between a Li ion and the Br ion be stronger than the bond between the K ion and the Br ion.
Answer:
1. NaOH + H₂O → Na⁺ + OH⁻ + H₂O + heat
2. NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H₂O
Explanation:
1. The dissolving of NaOH in water is an exothermic reaction resulting a heat. It also causes the dissociation of NaOH to its ions (Na⁺ and OH⁻).
So, the balanced equation will be NaOH + H₂O → Na⁺ + OH⁻ + H₂O + heat.
2. The reaction between acid and base resulting salt and water. It is considered as a neutralization reaction.
The reaction between HCl and NaOH will give sodium chloride and water and the balanced equation will be NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H₂O.
The equation that we will use to solve this question is:
M1*V1 = M2*V2
where:
M1 is the initial concentration = 9.13*10^-2 M
V1 is the initial volume = 80 ml
M2 is the final concentration = 1.6*10^-2 M
V2 in the final volume that we need to find
Substitute with the values given in the equation to calculate the final volume as follows:
(9.13*10^-2*80) = (1.6*10^-2) * V2
V2 = 456.5 ml
