The solvent is usually referred to as the component of a solution which is present as the one with the larger quantity and in most cases as the liquid which dissolves a solid. In a solution, there are two components namely the solvent and the solute. The solute is the one in smaller amount.
Answer:
The balanced chemical equation: NH₃ + 2 HF → NH₄⁺ + HF₂⁻
Explanation:
According to the Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, the acid- base reaction is a type of chemical reaction between the acid and base to give a conjugate acid and a conjugate base.
In this reaction, a Brønsted–Lowry acid loses a proton to form a conjugate base. Whereas, a Brønsted–Lowry base accepts a proton to form a conjugate acid.
Acid + Base ⇌ Conjugate Base + Conjugate Acid
The acid dissociation constant (Kₐ) <em>signifies the acidic strength of a chemical species.</em>
∵ pKₐ = - log Kₐ
Thus for a strong acid, Kₐ value is large and pKₐ value is small.
pKₐ (HF) = 3.2 → strong acid
pKₐ (NH₃) = 38 → weak acid
<u>The chemical reaction involved in the dissolution process:</u>
NH₃ + 2 HF → NH₄⁺ + HF₂⁻
In this acid-base reaction, the acid HF reacts with NH₃ base to give the conjugate base HF₂⁻ and conjugate acid NH₄⁺.
<u>HF (acid) donates a proton to form the conjugate base, HF₂⁻ ion. NH₃ (base) accepts a proton to form the conjugate acid. </u>
Answer:
<u>Yes</u>
Explanation:
Remember, <u>Newton's third law of motion;</u> which says in part that <em>"Every action has an equal and opposite reaction."</em>
Hence, in this case, the fact that the doorbell rang out implies that there was another force that was exerted on it; which is, John's finger pressing the doorbell.
In other words, when John uses his fingers to press the doorbell button he applies a force (a mechanical force), and that force results in an opposite reaction; the ringing of the doorbell.
Answer:
38 : 25
Explanation:
First thing's first, we have to confirm if the reaction is indeed balanced.
The equation of the reaction is given as;
C25H52 + 38 O2 → 25 CO2 + 26 H2O
From the reaction, 38 moles of O2 produces 25 moles of CO2
The ratio is given as;
38 : 25
