How many moles are contained in 2.3 liters of a 1.2M solution?

elena-s [515]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 2.76 \ mol}}$

Explanation:

Molarity is found by dividing the moles of solute by liters of solution.

$molarity = \frac {moles}{liters}$

We know the molarity is 1.2 M (mol\liter) and there are 2.3 liters of solution. Substitute the known values into the formula.

$1.2 \ mol/liter= \frac {x}{2.3 \ liters}$

Since we are solving for x, we must isolate the variable. It is being divided by 2.3 and the inverse of division is multiplication. Multiply both sides by 2.3 liters.

$2.3 \ liters *1.2 \ mol/liter= \frac {x}{2.3 \ liters}* 2.3 \ liters\\2.3 *1.2 \ mol= x\\2.76 \ mol =x$

In a solution with a molarity of 1.2 and 2.3 liters of solution, there are 2.76 moles.

Define the following: Bronsted-Lowry acid - Lewis acid- Strong acid - (5 points) Problem 6: Consider the following acid base rea

Allushta [10]

Answer: Yes, $HCl$ is a strong acid.

acid = $HCl$ , conjugate base = $Cl^-$ , base = $H_2O$ , conjugate acid = $H_3O^+$

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted-Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which looses donates protons and thus forming conjugate base and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons and thus forming conjugate acid.

Yes $HCl$ is a strong acid as it completely dissociates in water to give $H^+$ ions.

$HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^-$

For the given chemical equation:

$HCl+H_2O\rightarrow H_3O^-+Cl^-$

Here, $HCl$ is loosing a proton, thus it is considered as an acid and after losing a proton, it forms $Cl^-$ which is a conjugate base.

And, $H_2O$ is gaining a proton, thus it is considered as a base and after gaining a proton, it forms $H_3O^+$ which is a conjugate acid.

Thus acid = $HCl$

conjugate base = $Cl^-$

base = $H_2O$

conjugate acid = $H_3O^+$ .

A decrease in pressure has the greatest effect on a solution that contains.. ?

Naddika [18.5K]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

A gas in a liquid

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

Pressure affects the solubility of gases. According to Henry's law, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is proportional to the partial pressure of the gas above the liquid at a given temperature,
Therefore; For the solubility of gases in liquids, as pressure increases, solubility increases. Hence pressure will have a effect on a solution with a gas in liquid.

What is the volume of 0.640 grams of Oz gas at Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP)?

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer: The volume of 0.640 grams of $O_{2}$ gas at Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) is 0.449 L.

Explanation:

Given: Mass of $O_{2}$ gas = 0.640 g

Pressure = 1.0 atm

Temperature = 273 K

As number of moles is the mass of substance divided by its molar mass.

So, moles of $O_{2}$ (molar mass = 32.0 g/mol) is as follows.

$No. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\= \frac{0.640 g}{32.0 g/mol}\\= 0.02 mol$

Now, ideal gas equation is used to calculate the volume as follows.

PV = nRT

where,

P = pressure

V = volume

n = no. of moles

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm/mol K

T = temperature

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$PV = nRT\\1.0 atm \times V = 0.02 mol \times 0.0821 L atm/mol K \times 273 K\\V = 0.449 L$

Thus, we can conclude that the volume of 0.640 grams of $O_{2}$ gas at Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP) is 0.449 L.
