Electronegativity Trends

Using the Electronegativity Trends knowledge point
\[
\text{Group 17 (7A) / Halogens}
\]

Electron Configurations

Using the Electron Configuration Blocks knowledge point
\[

$$\begin{aligned} &\text{Hg: } [\text{Xe}] 4f^{14} 5d^{10} 6s^2\\ &\text{Hg}^{2+}: [\text{Xe}] 4f^{14} 5d^{10}\\ &\text{Cl}^-: [\text{Ne}] 3s^2 3p^6 \quad (\text{or } [\text{Ar}])\\ &\text{O}^{2-}: 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 \quad (\text{or } [\text{Ne}]) \end{aligned}$$

\]

Chemical Formulas and Equilibrium

Using the Ionic Formulas and Chemical Equilibrium knowledge points
\[

$$\begin{aligned} &\text{Barium oxide: } \text{BaO}\\ &K_{\text{eq}} = \frac{[\text{SiO}_2]}{[\text{Si}][\text{O}_2]} \end{aligned}$$

\]

Reaction Rates and Kinetics

Using the Reaction Rates and Activation knowledge point
\[

$$\begin{aligned} &\text{Rate} = k[\text{Reactant}] \implies 0.004 = 0.2 \times [\text{Reactant}]\\ &[\text{Reactant}] = 0.02\text{ M} \end{aligned}$$

\]
For Question 210, we determine the orders \(x\) and \(y\) in \(\text{Rate} = k[\text{A}]^x[\text{B}]^y\):

• Comparing trials 1, 2, and 3 where \([\text{B}]\) is constant at \(0.05\text{ M}\): doubling \([\text{A}]\) from \(0.05\) to \(0.10\) doubles the rate from \(2 \times 10^{-4}\) to \(4 \times 10^{-4}\). Thus, \(x = 1\).
• Comparing trials 4, 5, and 6 where \([\text{A}]\) is constant at \(0.01\text{ M}\): doubling \([\text{B}]\) from \(0.05\) to \(0.10\) quadruples the rate from \(0.8 \times 10^{-3}\) (which is \(3.2 \times 10^{-3}\) divided by 4). Specifically, \(\frac{3.2 \times 10^{-3}}{0.8 \times 10^{-3}} = 4 = 2^2\), and doubling \([\text{B}]\) from \(0.10\) to \(0.20\) increases the rate by a factor of \(\frac{25.6 \times 10^{-3}}{3.2 \times 10^{-3}} = 8 = 2^3\). Let's re-examine the rates:
• Trial 4: \([\text{B}] = 0.05\), \(\text{Rate} = 0.4 \times 10^{-3}\)
• Trial 5: \([\text{B}] = 0.10\), \(\text{Rate} = 3.2 \times 10^{-3}\)
• Trial 6: \([\text{B}] = 0.20\), \(\text{Rate} = 25.6 \times 10^{-3}\)
• Ratio 5 to 4: \(\frac{3.2 \times 10^{-3}}{0.4 \times 10^{-3}} = 8 = 2^3 \implies y = 3\).
• Ratio 6 to 5: \(\frac{25.6 \times 10^{-3}}{3.2 \times 10^{-3}} = 8 = 2^3 \implies y = 3\).
• Thus, the order with respect to \(\text{A}\) is 1, with respect to \(\text{B}\) is 3, and the overall order is \(1 + 3 = 4\).

Aqueous Equilibria and Neutralization

Using the Self-Ionization of Water and Acid-Base Neutralization knowledge points
\[

$$\begin{aligned} &K_w = [\text{H}^+][\text{OH}^-] = 1.0 \times 10^{-14}\\ &[\text{H}^+] = \frac{1.0 \times 10^{-14}}{1 \times 10^{-11}} = 1 \times 10^{-3}\text{ M} \quad (\text{Acidic})\\ &\text{CH}_3\text{COOH} + \text{NaOH} ightarrow \text{CH}_3\text{COONa} + \text{H}_2\text{O} \quad (\text{Sodium acetate and water})\\ &K_w = 1.0 \times 10^{-14} \quad (\text{at } 25^\circ\text{C}) \end{aligned}$$

\]
For weak acid dissociation:

• Question 213: \(K_a = \frac{[\text{H}^+]^2}{[\text{HA}] - [\text{H}^+]} \approx \frac{(4.02 \times 10^{-4})^2}{0.500} \approx 3.23 \times 10^{-7}\)
• Question 215: \(K_a = \frac{(0.0001)^2}{0.5} = 2 \times 10^{-8}\)
