Electron shielding affects the effective nuclear charge felt by outer electrons, influencing atomic size.

The rate of a surface reaction is primarily affected by the surface area of the reactants available for reaction.

The rate of a titration reaction is affected by the concentration of reactants, temperature, and the volume of titrant added.

The rate of diffusion of a gas is primarily affected by its molar mass; lighter gases diffuse faster than heavier gases according to Graham's law.

Electronegativity is the primary factor; higher electronegativity of the atom bonded to hydrogen increases acidity.

The acidity of a solution is primarily determined by the concentration of hydrogen ions (H+).

The atomic radius increases with the number of electron shells, as each additional shell is further from the nucleus.

The type of ligands affects the splitting of d-orbitals, which in turn influences the color of the transition metal complex.

The shape of the molecule determines how bond dipoles add up, affecting overall polarity.

The Arrhenius equation shows that the rate constant increases exponentially with temperature.

According to Graham's law of effusion, the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight.

VSEPR theory states that the shape of a molecule is determined by the repulsion between electron pairs, including both bonding and lone pairs.

The state of matter is primarily determined by the balance between temperature (kinetic energy) and intermolecular forces.

Bond strength increases with bond order. A higher bond order indicates more shared electron pairs, leading to a stronger bond.

A burette is used to accurately measure and deliver the volume of titrant added to the analyte solution.

The primary function of a chromatographic column is to provide a surface for separation of components based on their interactions with the stationary phase.

A galvanic cell converts chemical energy from spontaneous redox reactions into electrical energy.

A mass spectrometer separates ions based on their mass-to-charge ratio, allowing for the identification and quantification of different compounds.

The primary function of a salt bridge is to maintain charge balance by allowing ions to flow between the half-cells.

Baking soda, or sodium bicarbonate, acts as a leavening agent by producing carbon dioxide when it reacts with acids.

Flux is used to remove impurities from metal ores during the smelting process.

UV-Vis spectroscopy primarily involves the absorption of light by molecules, which promotes electrons to higher energy levels.

UV-Vis spectroscopy primarily involves electronic transitions, where electrons are excited from a lower energy level to a higher energy level.

Addition polymers are primarily formed through a free radical mechanism, where free radicals initiate the polymerization process.

Adsorption can occur through physical or chemical means, but chemical adsorption (chemisorption) involves the formation of a chemical bond between the adsorbate and the surface.

Iron is primarily extracted from its ore using carbon reduction in a blast furnace.

Copper is primarily extracted from its sulfide ores through smelting, where it is heated with a reducing agent.

Aluminum is primarily extracted from bauxite through electrolysis, specifically using the Bayer process followed by electrolysis of alumina.

In chromate ions (CrO4^2-), chromium has an oxidation state of +6.

In Cr2O7^2-, chromium is in the +6 oxidation state.
