Answer:

1,135 grams P₄O₁₀

Explanation:

To find the mass, you need to (1) convert molecules to moles (via Avogadro's Number) and then (2) convert moles to grams (via molar mass from periodic table values). It is important to arrange the ratios/ conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (the desired unit should be in the numerator). The final answer should have 4 sig figs to reflect the given value (2.408 x 10²⁴).

Avogadro's Number:

1 mole = 6.022 x 10²³ molecules

tetraphosphorus decaoxide = P₄O₁₀

Molar Mass (P₄O₁₀): 4(30.974 g/mol) + 10(15.998 g/mol)

Molar Mass (P₄O₁₀): 283.876 g/mol

2.408 x 10²⁴ molecules P₄O₁₀ 1 mole 283.876 g
------------------------------------------- x ------------------------------------ x -----------------
6.022 x 10²³ molecules 1 mole

= 1,135 grams P₄O₁₀

0.415 g of an unknown triprotic acid are used to make a 100.00 mL solution. Then 25.00 mL of this solution is transferred to an

Arturiano [62]

Answer:

Explanation:

Initial burette reading = 1.81 mL

final burette reading = 39.7 mL

volume of NaOH used = 39.7 - 1.81 = 37.89 mL .

37.89 mL of .1029 M NaOH is used to neutralise triprotic acid

No of moles contained by 37.89 mL of .1029 M NaOH

= .03789 x .1029 moles

= 3.89 x 10⁻³ moles

Since acid is triprotic , its equivalent weight = molecular weight / 3

No of moles of triprotic acid = 3.89 x 10⁻³ / 3

= 1.30 x 10⁻³ moles .

Which resources are significantly polluted by heavy metals like mercury?

arlik [135]

Heavy metals like mercury enter waterways by industrial dumping and poor regulatioin of effluent, and they also enter soil through a similar manner, in which waste is disposed of imporperly. Another source of heavy metals are the gases leaving industry carrying these metals. The metals fall as a solid on to soil and water ways. Therefore, the answer is D.

What must be the molarity of an aqueous solution of trimethylamine, (ch3)3n, if it has a ph = 11.20? (ch3)3n+h2o⇌(ch3)3nh++oh−kb

Stolb23 [73]

0.040 mol / dm³. (2 sig. fig.)

<h3>Explanation</h3>

$(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}$ in this question acts as a weak base. As seen in the equation in the question, $(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}$ produces $\text{OH}^{-}$ rather than $\text{H}^{+}$ when it dissolves in water. The concentration of $\text{OH}^{-}$ will likely be more useful than that of $\text{H}^{+}$ for the calculations here.

Finding the value of $[\text{OH}^{-}]$ from pH:

Assume that $\text{pK}_w = 14$ ,

$\begin{array}{ll}\text{pOH} = \text{pK}_w - \text{pH} \\ \phantom{\text{pOH}} = 14 - 11.20 &\text{True only under room temperature where }\text{pK}_w = 14 \\\phantom{\text{pOH}}= 2.80\end{array}$ .

$[\text{OH}^{-}] =10^{-\text{pOH}} =10^{-2.80} = 1.59\;\text{mol}\cdot\text{dm}^{-3}$ .

Solve for $[(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}]_\text{initial}$ :

$\dfrac{[\text{OH}^{-}]_\text{equilibrium}\cdot[(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{NH}^{+}]_\text{equilibrium}}{[(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}]_\text{equilibrium}} = \text{K}_b = 1.58\times 10^{-3}$

Note that water isn't part of this expression.

The value of Kb is quite small. The change in $(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}$ is nearly negligible once it dissolves. In other words,

$[(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}]_\text{initial} = [(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}]_\text{final}$ .

Also, for each mole of $\text{OH}^{-}$ produced, one mole of $(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{NH}^{+}$ was also produced. The solution started with a small amount of either species. As a result,

$[(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{NH}^{+}] = [\text{OH}^{-}] = 10^{-2.80} = 1.58\times 10^{-3}\;\text{mol}\cdot\text{dm}^{-3}$ .

$\dfrac{[\text{OH}^{-}]_\text{equilibrium}\cdot[(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{NH}^{+}]_\text{equilibrium}}{[(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}]_\textbf{initial}} = \text{K}_b = 1.58\times 10^{-3}$ ,

$[(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}]_\textbf{initial} =\dfrac{[\text{OH}^{-}]_\text{equilibrium}\cdot[(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{NH}^{+}]_\text{equilibrium}}{\text{K}_b}$ ,

$[(\text{CH}_3)_3\text{N}]_\text{initial} =\dfrac{(1.58\times10^{-3})^{2}}{6.3\times10^{-5}} = 0.040\;\text{mol}\cdot\text{dm}^{-3}$ .
