It makes sense that an inner shell electron would be tougher to remove
than a valence electron because the inner shell electron is closer to
the positive nucleus of the atom. Seeing as an electron caries a
negative charge it would be too attracted to the positive core to leave
readily. Also, the inner shell electrons are constantly repelling
electrons outside of it's energy level (however the reason these
electrons outside innershell energy levels don't simply fly away is the
charge of the positive core overcomes the smaller charges of the
comparably negligible inner shell electrons, but that repulsion is still
there so keep that in mind) </span>
Answer: 12.78ml
Explanation:
Given that:
Volume of KOH Vb = ?
Concentration of KOH Cb = 0.149 m
Volume of HBr Va = 17.0 ml
Concentration of HBr Ca = 0.112 m
The equation is as follows
HBr(aq) + KOH(aq) --> KBr(aq) + H2O(l)
and the mole ratio of HBr to KOH is 1:1 (Na, Number of moles of HBr is 1; while Nb, number of moles of KOH is 1)
Then, to get the volume of a 0.149 m potassium hydroxide solution Vb, apply the formula (Ca x Va)/(Cb x Vb) = Na/Nb
(0.112 x 17.0)/(0.149 x Vb) = 1/1
(1.904)/(0.149Vb) = 1/1
cross multiply
1.904 x 1 = 0.149Vb x 1
1.904 = 0.149Vb
divide both sides by 0.149
1.904/0.149 = 0.149Vb/0.149
12.78ml = Vb
Thus, 12.78 ml of potassium hydroxide solution is required.
Answer:
Slime mold or slime mould is an informal name given to several kinds of unrelated eukaryotic organisms that can live freely as single cells, but can aggregate together to form multicellular reproductive structures. Slime molds were formerly classified as fungi but are no longer considered part of that kingdom.
