Explanation:
The conductivity of water refers to how much it conducts electricity. The electrical conductivity of water increases as more ions are dissolved in it.
Hence, increase in concentration of dissolved ions improves the electrical conductivity of water.
Therefore, when a base (which is an ionic substance) is dissolved in water, the concentration of ions present increases and the conductivity of the solution increases accordingly since ions are charge carriers in solution.
Answer:
The halogens are extremely reactive, whilst the noble gases are mainly inert.
Only some noble gases tend to form compounds, such as xenon and krypton. However, some like helium, almost have no compounds at all.
Noble gases also have octet rule shells, which causes the little reactivity associated with them.
To form bonds with noble gases, a lot of energy is required to form those bonds.
Halogens, on the other hand, are extremely reactive. Compounds like chlorine and fluorine must be stored carefully, as they will oxidise anything that they can find, just to get one extra electron to get an octet configuration.
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
OPTION C) All hydrogen ions and all hydroxide ions have reacted to produce water, and so neither ion remains free in solution.
Explanation:
The PH reading on the left axis of the graph shows a value of 7.
A value of 7 on the PH scale implies that equal number of hydrogen ions completely reacted with hydroxyl ions to produce water i.e there is no excess of hydrogen and hydroxyl ion remaining in solution.
For values greater than 7, a basic solution is formed and it signifies the presence of excess hydroxyl ion. If the value is less than 7, there is more hydrogen ions in the solution formed and it is said to be acidic.
At point 7, the hydrogen and hydroxyl ions are equal and completely neutralize out one another.
Note: The acid solution would require a base volume of 20mL to be completely neutralized according to the plot. If it is less, the PH shifts to the left and the solution becomes acidic. If it more, the solution becomes basic and the PH shifts rightwards.
False, Dietary proteins are first broken down to individual amino acids by various enzymes and hydrochloric acid
present in the gastro-intestinal tract. These amino acids are further
broken down to α-keto acids which can be recycled in the body for
generation of energy, and production of glucose or fat or other amino
acids.
Answer:
true
Explanation:
CO has two C-O bonds. The dipoles point in opposite directions, so they cancel each other out. Thus, although CO₂ has polar bonds, it is a nonpolar molecule. Therefore, the only intermolecular forces are London dispersion forces.
