When atoms gain electrons, they can become larger, because the addition of an electron increases electrostatic repulsion.

Answer:True

Explanation: An anion has a larger radius than a neutral atom because it gains valence electrons. There are added electron/electron repulsions in the valence shell that expand the size of the electron cloud, which results in a larger radius for the anion.

hit the crown for me pls :)

A solution of aqueous ammonium sulfate has a mass of 482 grams. Calculate the mass of ammonium sulfate in solution if the mass p

umka2103 [35]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the mass of solute = 53.5 g

Explanation:

Data

mass of solution = 482 g

mass of solute = ?

mass percent = 11.1 %

Mass percent is a unit of concentration. It measures the mass of the solute divided by the total mass of the solution

Process

1.- Write the formula

Mass percent = mass of solute / mass of solution x 100

-Solve for mass of solute

mass of solute = Mass percent x mass of solution / 100

2.- Substitution

mass of solute = 11.1 x 482 / 100

3.- Simplification

mass of solute = 5350.2 / 100

4.- Result

mass of solute = 53.5g

If the length, width, and height of a box are 10.00 cm, 7.25 cm and 3.00 cm, respectively, what is the volume of the box in unit

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

For a: The volume of the box is 217.5 mL

For b: The volume of the box is 0.2175 L

Explanation:

The box is a type of cuboid.

To calculate the volume of cuboid, we use the equation:

$V=lbh$

where,

V = volume of cuboid

l = length of cuboid = 10.00 cm

b = breadth of cuboid = 7.25 cm

h = height of cuboid = 3.00 cm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$V=10.00\times 7.25\times 3.00=217.5cm^3$

For a:

To convert the volume of cuboid into milliliters, we use the conversion factor:

$1mL=1cm^3$

So,

$\Rightarrow 217.5cm^3\times (\frac{1mL}{1cm^3})\\\\\Rightarrow 217.5mL$

Hence, the volume of the box is 217.5 mL

For b:

To convert the volume of cuboid into liters, we use the conversion factor:

$1L=1000cm^3$

So,

$\Rightarrow 217.5cm^3\times (\frac{1L}{1000cm^3})\\\\\Rightarrow 0.2175L$

Hence, the volume of the box is 0.2175 L

Consider the titration of 1L of 0.36 M NH3 (Kb=1.8x10−5) with 0.74 M HCl. What is the pH at the equivalence point of the titrati

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

The question asks to calculate the pH at equivalence point of the titration between ammonia and hydrochloric acid

Firstly, we write the equation of reaction between ammonia and hydrochloric acid.

NH3(aq)+HCl(aq)→NH4Cl(aq)

Ionically:

HCl + NH3 ---> NH4 + Cl-

Firstly, we calculate the number of moles of the ammonia as follows:

from c = n/v and thus, n = cv = 0.36 × 1 = 0.36 moles

At the equivalence point, there is equal number of moles of ammonia and HCl.

Hence, volume of HCl = number of moles/molarity of HCl = 0.36/0.74 = 0.486L

Hence, the total volume of solution will be 1 + 0.486 = 1.486L

Now, we calculate the concentration of the ammonium ions = 0.36/1.486 = 0.242M

An ICE TABLE IS USED TO FIND THE CONCENTRATION OF THE HYDROXONIUM ION(H3O+). ICE STANDS FOR INITIAL, CHANGE AND EQUILIBRIUM.

NH4+ H2O ⇄ NH3 H3O+

I 0.242 0 0

C -X +x +X

E 0.242-X X X

Since the question provides us with the base dissociation constant value K b, we can calculate the acid dissociation constant value Ka

To find this, we use the mathematical equation below

K a ⋅ K b = K w

, where K w- the self-ionization constant of water, equal to

10 ^-14 at room temperature

This means that you have

K a = K w.K b = 10 ^− 14 /1.8 * 10^-5 = 5.56 * 10^-10

Ka = [NH3][H3O+]/[NH4+]

= x * x/(0.242-x)

Since the value of Ka is small, we can say that 0.242-x ≈ 0.242

Hence, K a = x^2/0.242 = 5.56 * 10^-10

x^2 = 0.242 * 5.56 * 10^-10 = 1.35 * 10^-10

x = 0.00001161895

[H3O+] = 0.00001161895

pH = -log[H3O+]

pH = -log[0.00001161895 ] = 4.94

Which of the following correctly describes the relationship between speed and velocity?

rodikova [14]

Speed and velocity is a scalar and vector quantity of a similar parameter, respectively. They both refer to how fast an object moves. However, the speed only has to do with the magnitude. The velocity takes into account the sign which indicates the direction of the movement. For example, the value is -5 m/s. The speed is 5 m/s, but the velocity is 5 m/s moving downwards because the negative sign denotes downward movement or movement to the left.
