Answer:

It is reactive because it has to gain an electron to have a full outermost energy level.

Explanation:

The electron configuration of oxygen is 1s2,2s2 2p4.

Oxygen is in group six in the periodic table so it has six electrons in its valence shell. This means that it needs to gain two electrons to obey the octet rule and have a full outer shell of electrons (eight).

This is my first question on Brainly, Can someone explain Molar mass to me? I am not very good with it..

suter [353]

Hey,
A mole is a unit of measure that helps us compare particles of any given substance and its mass. ... The molar mass, also known as molecular weight, is the sum of the total mass in grams of all the atoms that make up a mole of a particular molecule. The unit used to measure is grams per mole.

Motivation that is physical and can be touched like a trophy or a medal is:

Talja [164]

Answer:

Tangible

Explanation:

Tangible alone means it is "perceptible by touch," meaning you physically observe the object with your sense of touch.

Having tangible motivation is like working for money or a trophy.

Calculate the pH of the following simple solutions:

IceJOKER [234]

Answer :

(1) pH = 1.27

(2) pH = 13.35

(3) The given solution is not a buffer.

Explanation :

(1) 53.1 mM HCl

Concentration of HCl = $53.1mM=53.1\times 10^{-3}M$

As HCl is a strong acid. So, it dissociates completely to give hydrogen ion and chloride ion.

So, Concentration of hydrogen ion= $53.1\times 10^{-3}M$

pH : It is defined as the negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration.

$pH=-\log [H^+]$

$pH=-\log (53.1\times 10^{-3})$

$pH=1.27$

(2) 0.223 M KOH

Concentration of KOH = 0.223 M

As KOH is a strong base. So, it dissociates completely to give hydroxide ion and potassium ion.

So, Concentration of hydroxide ion= 0.223 M

Now we have to calculate the pOH.

$pOH=-\log [OH^-]$

$pOH=-\log (0.223)$

$pOH=0.65$

Now we have to calculate the pH.

$pH+pOH=14\\\\pH=14-pOH\\\\pH=14-0.65=13.35$

(3) 53.1 mM HCl + 0.223 M KOH

Buffer : It is defined as a solution that maintain the pH of the solution by adding the small amount of acid or a base.

It is not a buffer because HCl is a strong acid and KOH is a strong base. Both dissociates completely.

As we know that the pH of strong acid and strong base solution is always 7.

So, the given solution is not a buffer.

Actual value= -273 Experimental value= -274

Maurinko [17]

Answer:

<h2>When measuring data, the result often varies from the true value. Error can arise due to many different reasons that are often related to human error, but can also be due to estimations and limitations of devices used in measurement. Regardless, in cases such as these, it can be valuable to calculate the percentage error. The computation of percentage error involves the use of the absolute error, which is simply the difference between the observed and the true value.</h2>
