could you explin #2 and #3?
Number 2
To obtain a solution with ph =7 by mixing NaOH and HCl, the number of moles of NaOH must be equal to the number of moles of HCl according to the reaction
NaOH + HCl = NaCl + H2O
The number of moles
n=c x v , where c is the concentration and v is the volume;
by applying this formula to the values in the problem you obtain the right result.
Number 3
You have to determine the electronic configuration of each element - you will be provided with a periodical table at SAT , so you can look up the atomic numbers - and after that to check which configuration is the most stable; The more stable a configuration is, more energy will be required in order to ionize it, and therefore a higher ionization energy will be obtained.
The ionization energy is the energy required to ionize an atom.
for #2, using n = c x v, we have 0.1 x v = 0.3 x 150 so v should be 450 which is not one of the answer.
Unless there is a misprint so it really is 0.1M HCl and 0.3M NaOH, then you get v = 50, which is the B and the given answer.
Yes, it was a misprint I corrected it, thanks.
where do i find the answers to the test?
Why aren't the answers given?
1 E, 2 B, 3 C, 4 A, 5 C, 6 C, 7 D, 8 B, 9 D, 10 D
here you go had two wrong answers. thought i'd correct that.
6. b - NOT c
9. b - NOT d
when finding the empirical formula, CROSS OVER charges. he brought the charges down. big mistake. :)
Shariq, please explain how in the world 6 is B and 9 is B.
6:
The answer is most definitely C, creating AlF3. Aluminum has a charge of 3+ and Fluorine has a charge of -1.
9.
The answer is most definitely D.
NH4+ has a charge of +1, while sulfate has a charge of -2. Therefore, need 2 ammonium ions for each sulfate ion. Thus,
(NH4)2SO4, and D.
