Question

What is the difference between a quantity and a unit?

Answer:

Physical quantities are a characteristic or property of an object that can be measured or calculated from other measurements. Units are standards for expressing and comparing the measurement of physical quantities. All units can be expressed as combinations of four fundamental units.

Hope this helps!!!

When a 2.00 g sample of KCl is dissolved in water in a calorimeter that has a total heat capacity of 1.28 kJ ⋅ K − 1 , the tempe
Alchen [17]

Answer : The molar heat of solution of KCl is, 17.19 kJ/mol

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat of solution.

q=c\times (\Delta T)

where,

q = heat produced = ?

c = specific heat capacity of water = 1.28kJ/K

\Delta T = change in temperature = 0.360 K

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=1.28kJ/K\times 0.360K

q=0.4608kJ=460.8J

Now we have to calculate the molar heat solution of KCl.

\Delta H=\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy change = ?

q = heat released = 460.8 J

m = mass of KCl = 2.00 g

Molar mass of KCl = 74.55 g/mol

\text{Moles of }KCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }KCl}{\text{Molar mass of }KCl}=\frac{2.00g}{74.55g/mole}=0.0268mole

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

\Delta H=\frac{460.8J}{0.0268mole}

\Delta H=17194.029J/mol=17.19kJ/mol

Therefore, the molar heat of solution of KCl is, 17.19 kJ/mol

4. How can acids and bases behave in terms of electrolytes/reactivity?
icang [17]

Answer:

Strong acids are strong electrolytes. Such acids ionize completely.

Weak acids and bases are weak electrolytes. Such bases and acids ionize only to a small extent.

Explanation:

Electrolytes are the substances that produce ions when they are dissolved in water. Electrolytes can be categorized as bases, acids, and salts.

Strong acids are strong electrolytes. Such acids ionize completely.

Weak acids and bases are weak electrolytes. Such bases and acids ionize only to a small extent.

Why do some atoms form positive ions and others form negative ions?
Scrat [10]
It is energetically favorable for all atoms to have a complete outer electron shell. Loosely, the atoms on the left hand side of the periodic table only have a few extra electrons in their outer shell so it is energetically favorable for them to lose them. The atoms on the right hand side of the periodic table almost have enough electrons in their outer shell and so they have a tendency to gain them. Once electrons have left an electron shell, an atom will have a positive charge because it has more protons (positive charges) than electrons (negative charges). Similarly, an electron which has gained electrons to complete its outer shell will have a negative charge because it now has more electrons (negative charge) than protons (positive charge).
