Amphiprotic substances

An amphiprotic substance is a substance that can donate or accept a proton, H+

For a substance to be amphiprotic it must

<span>contain a hydrogen atom which is able to be donated to another chemical species.be able to accept a hydrogen ion from another species.</span>

Examples of amphiprotic species include H2O, HCO3-, HSO4-, HPO42- and H2PO4<span>-</span>

Write down five things that you personally could do in your day-to-day life to help with the problem of climate change. Write do

beks73 [17]

Before that, we need to know what causes climate change. One of the main reasons are the carbon dioxide released into the atmosphere, it traps heat but allow more heat to enter the earth, therefore climate increases over the years.

1. Set air conditioner to a higher temperature (eg. 25°C) or turn on fans instead.
Operating AC can use a lot of energy, and these energy is produced by burning if fossil fuels which releases carbon dioxide.

2. Take public transports instead of cars. The more private cars there are, the more pollutants it release, these pollutants includes carbon dioxide.

3. Turn off all the lights / electrical appliances when we leave a place. Again, electrical appliances require energy which is produced by burning of fossil fuels that gives out carbon dioxide.

4. Recycle and reuse paper that is only used on one side. Papers are extracted from trees and one main function of trees is to absorb carbon dioxide from the air. If many trees are cut, the amount of carbon dioxide in air would increase.

5. Do the laundry only if you have clothes full for the machine. If the washing machine is not full and you're starting it up, it really uses a lot of energy and water, which all again it triggers the release of carbon dioxide.

Calculate the maximum volume (in mL) of 0.143 M HCl that each of the following antacid formulations would be expected to neutral

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

a. The maximum volume of 0.143 M HCl required is 154.4 mL.

b. The maximum volume of 0.143 M HCl required is 135.7 mL.

Explanation:

$Al(OH)_3+3HCl\rightarrow AlCl_3+3H_2O$

Mass of aluminum hydroxide = 350 mg = 0.350 g ( 1mg = 0.001 g)

Moles of aluminum hydroxide = $\frac{0.350 g}{78 g/mol}=0.004487 mol$

According to reaction ,3 moles of HCl neutralize 1 mole of aluminum hydroxide.Then 0.004487 mole of aluminum hydroxide will be neutralize by :

$\frac{3}{1}\times 0.004487 mol=0.01346 mol$ of HCl.

$Mg(OH)_2+2HCl\rightarrow MgCL_2+2H_2O$

Mass of magnesium hydroxide = 250 mg = 0.250 g ( 1mg = 0.001 g)

Moles of magnesium hydroxide = $\frac{0.250 g}{58 g/mol}=0.004310 mol$

According to reaction ,2 moles of HCl neutralize 1 mole of magnesium hydroxide.Then 0.004310 mole of magnesium hydroxide will be neutralize by :

$\frac{2}{1}\times 0.004310 mol=0.008621 mol$ of HCl.

Total moles of HCl required to neutralize both :

0.01346 mol + 0.008621 mol = 0.02208 mol

Molarity of the HCL solution = 0.143 M

Volume of the solution = V

$Molarity=\frac{\text{Total moles of HCl}{\text{Volume in Liter}}$

$V=\frac{0.02208 mol}{0.143 M}=0.1544 L$

1 L = 1000 mL

0.1544 L = 154.4 mL

The maximum volume of 0.143 M HCl required is 154.4 mL.

$CaCO_3+2HCl\rightarrow CaCl_2+H_2O+CO_2$

Mass of calcium carbonate = 970mg = 0.970 g ( 1mg = 0.001 g)

Moles of calcium carbonate = $\frac{0.970 g}{100 g/mol}=0.00970 mol$

According to reaction ,2 moles of HCl neutralize 1 mole of calcium carbonate.Then 0.00970 mole of calcium carbonate will be neutralize by :

$\frac{2}{1}\times 0.00970 mol=0.0194 mol$ of HCl.

Total moles of HCl required to neutralize calcium carbonate : 0.0194 mol

Molarity of the HCL solution = 0.143 M

Volume of the solution = V

$Molarity=\frac{\text{Total moles of HCl}}{\text{Volume in Liter}}$

$V=\frac{0.0194 mol}{0.143 M}=0.1357 L$

1 L = 1000 mL

0.1357 L = 135.7 mL

The maximum volume of 0.143 M HCl required is 135.7 mL.
