Answer:

45.2%

Explanation:

To calculate the percent of an element in a compound we divide the molar mass of the element by the compound and multiply that by 100

First lets find the molar mass of Fluoride

Looking at the periodic table Fluoride has a molecular mass of 18.998 g

Now we need to find the molecular mass of NaF

Looking at a periodic table, Sodium (Na) has a molecular mass of 22.990g and Fluoride has a molecular mass of 18.998 so NaF has a molecular mass of 22.990(1) + 18.998(1) = 41.988g

Now we divide the mass of fluoride by the mass of sodium fluoride and multiply that by 100 to find the percentage of fluoride that is present in NaF

Mass of Fluoride = 18.998g

Mass of Sodium Fluoride = 41.988g

Percentage of fluoride present in NaF = (18.998g / 41.988g) * 100 = 45.2%

A solution is prepared at that is initially in benzoic acid , a weak acid with , and in sodium benzoate . Calculate the pH of th

Kisachek [45]

Answer:

$pH=4.1$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for a concentration of 0.42 M of benzoic acid whose Ka is 6.3x10⁻⁵ in 0.33 M sodium benzoate, we use the Henderson-Hasselbach equation to compute the required pH:

$pH=pKa+log(\frac{[base]}{[acid]} )$

Whereas the concentration of the base is 0.33 M and the concentration of the acid is 0.42 M, thereby, we obtain:

$pH=-log(Ka)+log(\frac{[base]}{[acid]} )\\\\pH=-log(6.3x10^{-5})+log(\frac{0.33M}{0.42M} )\\\\pH=4.1$

Regards.

In an ionic compound, the size of the ions affects the internuclear distance (the distance between the centers of adjacent ions)

Elena L [17]

Answer:

RbI<RbBr<RbCl<RbF

Explanation:

As stated in the question, the latice energy depends on the relative size of the ions. When the action size is constant as in the question, the lattice energy now depends on the relative of the anions. The order of increase in ionic sizes among the halide ions is fluoride<Chloride<Bromide<Iodide. This order of increasing size means that the lattice energy will decrease accordingly as shown in the answer.

I would agree with the second one, not the first. You can't always see the chemical reaction, and it isn't always sudden. But the second claim is true.
