Calculate the PH of 32 mmol of HCl in 75cm^3 solution. Assume HCl fully dissociates.

32 mmol = 0.032 mol

75cm= 0.075dm3

n = c x v    so   c = n / v

c = 0.032mol/0.075 dm3 = 0.426moldm-3

pH = -log[H+]

pH = -lo...

Compare the structures of Diamond and Graphite, making references to the bonding, the shape of the structures, and location of the electrons within the structures. Account for the fact that graphite conducts electricity and diamond does not.

In diamond, each carbon atom forms 4 strong covalent sigma bonds with other carbons, resulting in a tetrahedral 3D arrangement of atoms where all the electrons are fixed in place or localised. In graphite...

Explain the geometry and bond angles in a NH3 molecule

So if we think about a molecule of ammonia, NH3, there are 3 hydrogens, each with 1 electron (as its atomic number is 1) covalently bonded to 1 nitrogen atom with 5 outer shell electrons on it due to its ...
