noble gases are used in many situations where a safe and constant environment must be maintained. for example, helium is used to

provide a protective atmosphere for making fiber optics and semiconductors. argon is used to fill incandescent and flourescent light bulbs to prevent oxygen from corroding the hot filament. why are noble gases used in these situations?

The boiling point of h2o (100 oc) is higher than the boiling point of h2s (-61 oc) because
aksik [14]
Water has hydrogen bonds between Hydrogen atoms (that are slightly positive in molecules of water ) and Oxygen atoms (that are slightly negative in molecules of water), so it is necessary more energy to break them down and move water molecules from liquid state to gas.

On the basis of the information above, what is the approximate percent ionization of HNO2 in a 1.0 M HNO2 (aq) solution?
enot [183]

Answer:

The answer is "2%"

Explanation:

Equation:

HNO_2\ (aq) \leftrightharpoons  H^{+} \ (aq) + NO_2^{-}\ (aq) \\\\\  K_a = 4.0\times \ 10^{-4}

H^{+}=?

Formula:

Ka = \frac{[H^{+}][NO_2^{-}]}{[HNO_2]}

Let

[H^{+}] = [NO_2^{-}] = x at equilibrium

x^2 = (4.0\times 10^{-4})\times 1.0\\\\x = ((4.0\times 10^{-4})\times 1.0)^{0.5} = 2.0 \times 10^{-2} \  M\\\\

therefore,

[H^{+}] = 2.0\times 10^{-2} \ M = 0.02 \ M

Calculating the % ionization:

= \frac{([H^{+}]}{[HNO_2])} \times 100 \\\\= \frac{0.02}{1}\times 100 \\\\= 2\%\\\\
