Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The compound (s) that conduct only very weak electricity when dissolved in water should be identified.
Concept introduction:
Acids can donate the
strong acids or strong bases are ionize in water very easily, weak acid or weak bases are ionize very slowly.
strong acid and sarong base are one that completely ionizes (dissociates) in a solution (provided there is sufficient solvent). In water, acid HA dissolves and gives
Conductor of electricity depends on the movements of the ions in solution, ions gets separated, it behaves as strong conductor of electricity. If the ions not completely dissociate that will be a very weak conductor of electricity
Strong electricity conductors are strong acids and weak bases.
Weak electricity conductors are weak acid and weak bases.

Chemistry & Chemical Reactivity
- The exposed electrodes of a light bulb are placed in a solution of H2SO4 in an electrical circuit such that the light bulb is glowing. You add a dilute salt solution, and the bulb dims. Which of the following could be the salt in the solution? a. Ba(NO3)2 b. NaNO3 c. K2SO4 d. Ca(NO3)2 Justify your choices. For those you did not choose, explain why they are incorrect.arrow_forwardArsenic acid, H3AsO4, is a poisonous acid that has been used in the treatment of wood to prevent insect damage. Arsenic acid has three acidic protons. Say you take a 25.00-mL sample of arsenic acid and prepare it for titration with NaOH by adding 25.00 mL of water. The complete neutralization of this solution requires the addition of 53.07 mL of 0.6441 M NaOH solution. Write the balanced chemical reaction for the titration, and calculate the molarity of the arsenic acid sample.arrow_forwardWrite molecular and net ionic equations for the successive neutralizations of each acidic hydrogen of sulfurous acid by aqueous calcium hydroxide. CaSO3 is insoluble; the acid salt is soluble.arrow_forward
- The pungent odor of vinegar is a result of the presence of acetic acid, CH3COOH. Only one hydrogen atom of the CH3COOH reacts with a base in a neutralization reaction. What is the concentration of acetic acid if a 10.00-mL sample is neutralized by 3.32 mL of 0.0100 M strontium hydroxide?arrow_forward4-81 (Chemical Connections 4C) Balance the lithium iodine battery redox reaction described in this sec tion and identify the oxidizing and reducing agents present.arrow_forwardCalcium in blood or urine can be determined by precipitation as calcium oxalate, CaC2O4. The precipitate is dissolved in strong acid and titrated with potassium permanganate. The equation for reaction is 2MnO4(aq)+6H+(aq)+5H2C2O4(aq)2Mn2+(aq)+10CO2(g)+8H2O A 24-hour urine sample is collected from an adult patient, reduced to a small volume, and titrated with 26.2 mL of 0.0946 M KMnO4. How many grams of calcium oxalate are in the sample? Normal range for Ca2+ output for an adult is 100 to 300 mg per 24 hour. Is the sample within the normal range?arrow_forward
- Which compound or compounds in each of the following groups is (are) soluble in water? (a) BaSO4, Ba(NO3)2, BaCO3 (b) Na2SO4, NaClO4, NaCH3CO2 (c) AgBr, KBr, Al2Br6arrow_forwardFor a product to be called vinegar, it must contain at least 5.0% acetic acid, HC2H3O2, by mass. A 10.00-g sample of a raspberry vinegar is titrated with 0.1250 M Ba(OH)2 and required 37.50 mL for complete neutralization. Can the product be called a vinegar?arrow_forwardComplete and balance each of the following molecular equations (in aqueous solution); include phase labels. Then, for each, write the net ionic equation. a NaOH + HNO3 b HCl + Ba(OH)2 c HC2H3O2 + Ca(OH)2 d NH3 + HNO3arrow_forward

How many grams of iodine were added to the solution?arrow_forwardOranges and grapefruits are known as citrus fruits because their acidity comes mainly from citric acid, H3C6H5O7. Calculate the concentration of citric acid in a solution if a 30.00-mL sample is neutralized by 15.10 mL of 0.0100 M KOH.
