What is the pH of a solution prepared from solid, neutral 2-nitrophenol providing a fromal concentration of 0.0353M, given that the Ka of 2nitrophenol is 5.98 x 10^-8

Why is the bond angle in a water molecule less than the bond angle of methane? a. the central oxygen atom in water has two lone pairs of electrons, whereas the central carbon atom in methane has no lone pairs. b. the central hydrogen atom in water has one lone pair of electrons, whereas the central carbon atom in methane has two lone pairs. c. the central oxygen atom in water has four lone pairs of electrons, whereas the central carbon atom in methane has only one lone pair. d. the central oxygen atom exerts more repulsive force on surrounding atoms than the central carbon atom in methane does. reset next

Which of the following is most likely true about water in chemical systems? a) water dissolves nonpolar ionic compounds. b) water dissociates ionic compounds. c) water dissociates covalent molecules. d) water dissolves nonpolar covalent substances.

Many ionic compounds and a few highly polar covalent compounds are because they completely ionize in water to create a solution filled with charged ions that can conduct an electric current.
