If the volume is limited by a steel container then yes it has no effect on equilibrium, but if the gas is in open space then adding inert gas adds to pressure.

I am not sure about how small the initial concentration x should be. But Ka or Kb should be less than 10 ^-3.

there is also the 5% rule where x/initial concentration * 100 should be less than 5%

Acids and bases ionize in water. So both are aqueous. The reaction takes place in water, so it is not a limited concentration.

Liquids are not compressed by pressure, so it does not change the speed of the reaction. That is why it is not in the equilibrium constant equation.

We can also see how much the charge is by determining the charges of all the atoms that are not part of the ligand. So if for Co(NH3)5Cl is the ligand and it is bonded to Cl then we know Cl is Cl- with negative 1 charge and this makes the ligand positive 1 charge.

Overall all single bonds are sigma bonds and in double or triple bonds. All bonds except the first one are pi bonds. So a double bond has 1 pi bond and a triple bond has 2 pi bonds. Both double and triple bonds have 1 sigma bond.

In the soil acid rain can make the acidity much more acidic and less basic. This can kill plant life that needs a certain pH in order to survive. This water run off enters lakes where fish die from inability to filter the acidity of the water resulting in more death. Overall it makes the environment...

Roman numerals are only correlated with the charge on the cation. The positive charge changes for certain transition metal cations and this is why different elements have different roman numerals. However this is only used for transition metals, which form positive ions or cations. Negative ions wit...

This is the same case with other polar bonds such as the bent structure. This is due to the same reason as chem_mod said where it is due to the lone pair that creates electron - electron repulsion and pushes the bonds away.

I think to really understand formal charge people need to know that it assumes covalent bonds are shared equally when in that's not true when atoms are electronegative. This means that at time even though due to formal charge the atom may have a full shell, but in actuality the other bonded atom pul...

This is because there are two resonance structures that are possible, but they are not as common and this can be shown through formal charge. They contribute to the resonance structure in small amounts. The third structure with the least formal charge is the best blend of all three and contributes t...

I wanted to know all the exceptions that we will be required to know for the test. I mean the exceptions to the orbital rule. Electrons fill orbitals in ascending order, but sometimes electrons will fill up a later orbital and leave an earlier orbital empty. These are exceptions and I wanted to know...

No we do not need to know the shapes because we won't be expected to draw them.

RaviAmin1H

It is used as a probability distribution. This means that we can use it as a chance to see what the chances are for a certain velocity, mass, ect. The wavelength gives the chance to find a particle at a position.

You also need to convert meters to centimeters BY MULTIPLYING not DIVIDING.

The photoelectric effect is not when n goes to infinity because the energy of the photon subtract work function = kinetic energy. Kinetic energy can vary and does not mean that the electron has separated from the atom. The electron could have traveled between certain orbitals and not out of the atom.

To add the other answer - Diffraction is when the waves go in multiple direction with multiple dimensions. This is due to the crystal splitting the light into its various wavelengths Destructive is when the waves come from the same source and from 2 different planes. The waves have the same intensity.

I think both of the replies above have the wrong mass of X2A

x = 108
A=166

so 108* 2 = 216
216+ 166 = 382

unless I am wrong I think that is the proper molar mass that must be pultiplied by .004 mol of X2A

resulting in 1.53 g of X2A

.985/1.53 * 100 = 64.4%

If we have 30. g of Na and unlimited Cl2 what is the percent yield of NaCL if 22. g were created when the reaction went to completion? We can convert 30. g Na to moles because it is limiting and Cl2 is excess. 30g na / 23 g na = 1.3 mol Na. Now we can do the molar ratio of Na to NaCl. 1 mol NaCl/ 1 ...
