Answer:

relative rate of diffusion is 1.05

Explanation:

According to Graham's law of difussion:

Rate of diffusion is inversely proportional to the square root of molecular weight of a molecule.

For two given molecules:

\frac{(rate)_{1}}{(rate)_{2}}=\frac{\sqrt{M_{2}} }{\sqrt{M_{1}}}

The given molecules are

Water = 18.01

Heavy water =20.03

Thus the relative rate of diffusion will be:

\frac{(rate)_{water}}{(rate)_{heavywater}}=\sqrt{ \frac{20.03}{18.01}}=1.05

Give the atomic symbol for an element that does not exist as a molecule or extended structure. that is, an element that exists o
RUDIKE [14]
An element that exist as a discreet atom has only one atom which can stand alone on its own. Example of this is Neon, which is a noble gas. The chemical symbol for neon is Ne.
Elements are able to exist as discreet atom because they are chemical stable and inert.

Calculate the concentration of H3O in a solution that contains 5.5 × 10-5 M OH at 25°C. Identify the solution as acidic, basic o
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The correct option is option (D).

Therefore the concentration of H_3O is 1.8×10⁻¹⁰ M and it is basic in nature.

Explanation:

List of pH:

  1. If pH of a solution is 7, then solution is neutral.
  2. If pH of a solution is grater than 7, then solution is basic.
  3. If pH of a solution is less than 7, then solution is acidic.

pH of a solution is = - log₁₀[H₃O⁺]

We know that,

[H₃O⁺][OH⁻] = K_w = 10^{-14}  (at 25°C)

Taking log both sides

log ([H₃O⁺][OH⁻]) =log K_w =log 10^{-14}

⇒log[H₃O⁺]+log[OH⁻] = logK_w = -14 log 10

[since log(mn)= log m + log n, log( a^b)=b\ log (a) ]

⇒ - log[H₃O⁺] - log[OH⁻] = - (-14)  [ log 10 =1]

⇒pH+pOH =14.

Given that,

The concentration of OH⁻ is 5.5 × 10⁻⁵ M

[H₃O⁺][OH⁻] = K_w = 10^{-14}

⇒[H₃O⁺] 5.5 × 10⁻⁵ M=10⁻¹⁴

\Rightarrow [H_3O^+]=\frac{10^{-14}}{5.5\times 10^{-5}}

⇒[H₃O⁺] = 1.8×10⁻¹⁰ M

Now check the pH of the solution.

[H₃O⁺] = 1.8×10⁻¹⁰

Taking log both sides

log [H₃O⁺] =log( 1.8×10⁻¹⁰)

⇒ -log [H₃O⁺] = - log( 1.8×10⁻¹⁰)

⇒ pH = - log( 1.8×10⁻¹⁰)

⇒ pH =9.7.

So the nature of solution is basic.

Therefore the concentration of H_3O is 1.8×10⁻¹⁰ M and it is basic in nature.

A person is pushing a box across a table. The measured forces on the box are 10N, 14N, 7N, 10N. Which force is represented by 7N
Vlad1618 [11]
Answer: The friction force.

Justification:

Since the box is sliding over the table, the normal force equals the weight of the object (and any other vertical force that is applied on the box).

So, the normal force and weight (along with any other vertical component of a force applied on the box) must be 10 N and 10 N.

The other two forces: 14 N and 7 N are the forces in the plane of the table and should be opposite in a same line. The 14 N force is the responsible of the motion and the 7N force is opposing the 14 N force, so the 7N force has to be the friction force. Of course, 14N - 7N > 0 which is why the box is moving.

A sample weighing 30.0 grams contains 1.5g of salt/ determine the percent salt found in the sample
jeka57 [31]
<span>Percentage by mass is the amount in mass of a component in a mixture per 100 unit of mass of the total mixture. Percentage by mass is the same as  %w/w. We can determine this by dividing the mass of the solute with the total mass of the mixture. We calculate as follows:

Percent salt = 1.5 g salt / 30.0 g x 100 = 5%  </span>
