Answer:

B) There are weak interactions between the CO2 molecules.

Explanation:

Carbon dioxide is composed of one carbon atom that is structured between two atoms of oxygen, they are bonded with double bond and the CO2 is symmetrical because of the arrangement of the bond between them.It is less electronegative than Oxgen, this gives Oxgen the ability to attract the electron to themselves, and there is no intermolecular existing within carbon dioxide other bands waal forces.Compounds that are gases under the condition of room temperatures, and pressure usually have have small molecules. and their molecules is usually have van der Waals forces acting between them and theses forces are weak.This allows carbon dioxide molecules to be able to move freely as a gas.

. Sulfur dioxide can be produced in the laboratory by the reaction of hydrochloric acid and a sulfite salt such as sodium sulfit
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Mass of SO₂ can be made from 25.0 g of Na₂SO₃ and 22 g of HCl = 12.672 g

Explanation:

SO₂( sulfur dioxide) can be produced in the lab. by the reaction of hydrochloric acid & sulphite salt such as sodium.

        the balanced chemical equation is as follows

                       Na₂SO₃ + 2 HCl → 2 NaCl + SO₂ + H₂O

Moles of Na₂SO₃ = \frac{Mass}{Molecular mass} =\frac{25}{126} = 0.198

Moles of HCl = \frac{mass}{molecular mass}=\frac{22}{36.5}= 0.6

using mole ratio method to find limiting reagent

      For sodium sulfite \frac{mole}{stoichiometry}  = \frac{0.198}{1}= 0.198

 for HCl \frac{mole}{stoichiometry}  = \frac{0.6}{2}= 0.3

since <u>sodium sulfite</u> is <u>limiting reactant</u> for above chemical reaction

1 mole of Na₂SO₃ produce 1 mole of SO₂

0.198 mole of Na₂SO₃ produce 0.198 mole of SO₂

∴ Mass of SO₂ produce = mole x molar mass of SO₂

                                       = 0.198 x 64

                                       = 12.672 g

Strong acids are assumed 100% dissociated in water. True As a solution becomes more basic, the pOH of the solution increases. Fa
Kruka [31]

Answer:

Strong acids are assumed 100% dissociated in water- True

As a solution becomes more basic, the pOH of the solution increases- false

The conjugate base of a weak acid is a strong base- true

The Ka equilibrium constant always refers to the reaction of an acid with water to produce the conjugate base of the acid and the hydronium ion- True

As the Kb value for a base increases, base strength increases- true

The weaker the acid, the stronger the conjugate base- true

Explanation:

An acid is regarded as a strong acid if it attains 100% or complete dissociation in water.

The pOH decreases as a solution becomes more basic (as OH^- concentration increases).

Ka refers to the dissociation of an acid HA into H3O^+ and A^-.

The greater the base dissociation constant, the greater the base strength.

The weaker an acid is, the stronger , its conjugate base will be.
