Initial electric field strength
hey! i solved your problem! the equation you are using is that of a point charge like robb said. the electric field strength in a parallel plate capacitor is given by E=n/epsilon zero. n is the surface charge density of the plates which are equal in magnitude. the surface charge density is...- Jide

Understanding Electric Potential
Homework Statement How is the electric potential different from the electric potential energy of a charge. what is the conceptual meaning of the electric potential. Homework Equations U=qV; U= kq1q2/r r= distance between two charges The Attempt at a Solution i clearly understand...- Jide

Why HF (hydrogen fluoride) is not soluble in water?
hydogen bonding I guess i didn't read his question carefully. yes, up to 70% of HF will dissociate in water. the other 29.9% is because it is a weak acid compared its other buddy hydrohalogens (HCl, HI) and so on. this also makes HF an exception in the class of strong acids- Jide

Why HF (hydrogen fluoride) is not soluble in water?
hydrogen bonding Your enthalpy approach was very good. i would have done the same, but for a molecule to dissolve in water, it must be able to hydrogen bond with itself. that is hydrogen bond with an identical molecule like itself. this very impossible for a molecule like hydrogen flouride...- Jide
