Which of the following is what an elements are made of?

In an aqueous solution, 42% of a substance dissociates to release hydronium ions. Which of the following statements is true for

const2013 [10]

Answer: The statement it is a weak acid is true for the substance.

Explanation:

An acid that dissociates completely when dissolved in water to give hydrogen $(H^{+})$ or hydronium $(H_{3}O^{+})$ ions is called a strong acid.

For example, HCl is a strong acid.

$HCl + H_{2}O \rightarrow H_{3}O^{+} + Cl^{-}$

An acid that dissociates partially or weakly when dissolved in water to given hydrogen or hydronium ions is called a weak acid.

For example, $CH_{3}COOH$ is a weak acid.

$CH_{3}COOH \rightleftharpoons CH_{3}COO^{-} + H_{3}O^{+}$

A strong base is a base which when dissolved in water then it dissociates completely to give hydroxide ions.

For example, NaOH is a strong acid.

A weak base is a base which when dissolved in water then it dissociates partially or weakly to give hydroxide ions.

For example, $NH_{3}$ is a weak base.

Hence, in an aqueous solution where 42% of a substance dissociates to release hydronium ions shows that the dissociation is less than 50%. This means that substance is dissociating weakly so, it is a weak acid.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement it is a weak acid is true for the substance.

What happens when carbon dioxide is passed through lime water for a long time? write with equation

Vlada [557]

Answer:

when CO2 gas is passed through lime water it turns milky due to the formation of calcium carbonate which formula is CaCO3.

Ca(OH)2+ CO2------ CaCO3

when excess of carbon dioxide is passed through calcium carbonate calcium hydrogen carbonate is formed and solution become colourless.

CaCO3+CO2------ Ca(HCO3)

The formation of iodine is described by the following chemical equation:

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

N2O2(g) +O2(g) ===> 2NO2(g)

Explanation:

For a nonelementary reaction, the reaction equation is described as the sum of all the steps involved. All these steps constitute the reaction mechanism. Each step in the mechanism is an elementary reaction. The rate law of the overall reaction involves the rate determining step (slowest step) in the reaction sequence.

Now look at the overall reaction 2NO(g) + O2(g) ---------> 2NO2(g)

The two steps in the mechanism are

2NO(g) --------->N2O2(g) (fast)

N2O2(g) +O2(g) -------> 2NO2(g) (slow)

Summing all the steps and cancelling out the intermediate N2O2(g), we obtain the reaction equation;

2NO(g) + O2(g) ---------> 2NO2(g)

Hence the answer.
