OH- is the ion that increases the concentration of a base
The initial mass of sodium hydroxide is 3.3 g (answer C)
<u><em>calculation</em></u>
Step 1 : find the moles of iron (ii) hydroxide ( Fe(OH)₂
moles = mass÷ molar mass
from periodic table the molar mass of Fe(OH)₂ = 56 + [16 +1]2 = 90 g/mol
moles is therefore = 3.70 g÷ 90 g/mol = 0.041 moles
Step 2: use the mole ratio to calculate the moles of sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
from given equation NaOH : Fe(OH)₂ is 2 :1
therefore the moles of NaOH = 0.041 x 2 = 0.082 moles
Step 3: find mass of NaOH
mass = moles x molar mass
from the periodic table the molar mass of NaOH = 23 +16 +1 = 40 g/mol
mass = 0.082 moles x 40 g/mol = 3.3 g ( answer C)
In chemistry, a solution is a homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances. In such a mixture, a solute is a substance dissolved in another substance, known as a solvent.
Answer:
Here
Explanation:
This is an acid-base reaction (neutralization): CaCO3 is a base, HCl is an acid.
