Hello!
According to Arrhenius, bases are defined as substances that produce OH⁻ ions when they dissolve in water. The anion NO₂⁻ fits this definition as illustrated in the following reaction:
NO₂⁻(aq) + H₂O (l) HNO₂ (aq) + OH⁻(aq)
Wishing you a great day!
Solution:
Molality measures the concentration of a solute in a solution, defined by the amount of solute per specific mass of solvent.
Thus,
Molality = moles of solute / kg of solvent.
Therefore, kg of solvent = moles of solute / molality.
moles of solute = mass / molar mass
= 25.31 g / 101.1 g/mole
= 0.2503 mole.
kg of solvent = 0.2503 mole / 0.1982 m
= 1.263 kg
= 1263 g.
This is the final answer.
Vegetation cover serves as the most efficient and effective method to curb sediment loss. The roots of plants like grass interlink soil particles, aiding in erosion resistance, particularly against runoff water. Vegetation absorbs the force of raindrops, preventing soil particle detachment. Additionally, plants can lie flat resembling shingles on a roof, enabling runoff to travel over the soil rather than disturbing it.
Tall, erect vegetation functions as a barrier against wind, diminishing its force so that it cannot dislodge soil particles from the ground surface.
The interaction between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid can be represented by the chemical equation,
CaCO3 + 2HCl --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
Calcium carbonate has a molecular weight of 100 g/mol, while hydrochloric acid's molecular weight is 36.45 g/mol. According to the equation, 100 g of calcium carbonate reacts with 72.9 g of hydrochloric acid.
x = (4 g HCl)(100 g CaCO3 / 72.9 HCl)
x = 5.49 g
Final result: 5.49 g
What is being removed during the wash is the solvent.
