Answer:
B. a strongly basic solution
Explanation:
Kb is base dissociation constant, which indicates how completely a base dissociates into its component ions in water. The greater the Kb value, the greater the alkalinity of the solution and vice versa.
Therefore, a solution with a Kb value much greater than 1, indicates a strongly basic solution, while a solution with a Kb value less than 1, indicates a weakly basic solution.
Answer:
Explanation:
First, we need to find the molecular mass of water (H₂O).
H₂O has:
- 2 Hydrogen atoms (subscript of 2)
- 1 Oxygen atom (implied subscript of 1)
Use the Periodic Table to find the mass of hydrogen and oxygen. Then, multiply by the number of atoms of the element.
- Hydrogen: 1.0079 g/mol
- Oxygen: 15.9994 g/mol
There are 2 hydrogen atoms, so multiply the mass by 2.
- 2 Hydrogen: (1.0079 g/mol)(2)= 2.0158 g/mol
Now, find the mass of H₂O. Add the mass of 2 hydrogen atoms and 1 oxygen atom.
- 2.0158 g/mol + 15.9994 g/mol = 18.0152 g/mol
Next, find the amount of moles using the molecular mass we just calculated. Set up a ratio.
Multiply. The grams of H₂O will cancel out.
The original measurement given had two significant figures (3,2). We must round to have 2 significant figures. All the zeroes before the 1 are not significant. So, round to the ten thousandth.
The 7 in the hundred thousandth place tells us to round up.
There are about <u>0.0018 moles in 0.032 grams.</u>
<u>Answer:</u> The red litmus paper turns blue on dipping in NaOH solution.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Litmus paper is the indicator that detects the nature of the solution, whether it is acidic or basic.
There are 2 types of litmus paper:
- <u>Red litmus paper:</u> This paper will turn blue if it is dipped in basic solution and will remain as such if it is dipped in acidic solution.
- <u>Blue litmus paper:</u> This paper will turn red if it is dipped in acidic solution and will remain as such if it is dipped in basic solution.
NaOH is a strong base, so when a red litmus paper is dipped in the beaker having necessary amount of NaOH, the red litmus paper turns into blue.
Answer:
15.89grams
Explanation:
The mass of a substance can be calculated from it's mole value by using the formula:
mole = mass/molar mass
According to this question, there are 0.250 moles of copper. Hence, the mass of copper can be calculated as follows:
Molar mass of Cu = 63.55g/mol
0.250 = mass/63.55
mass = 0.250 × 63.55
mass = 15.8875
Mass of Cu in 0.250mol is 15.89grams.
