<u>2.37</u> is the pH of 0.075 M HZ.

The term pH, which originally stood for "potential of hydrogen" (or "power of hydrogen"), is used in chemistry to describe how acidic or basic an aqueous solution is. Lower pH values are summarized for acidic solutions (solutions with higher H+ ion concentrations) than for basic or alkaline solutions.

The pH scale is inversely indicates to the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution and is logarithmic.

⇒pH = -log( $a_{H+}$ )

Acidic solutions are those with a pH below 7, and basic solutions are those with a pH above 7, at a temperature of 25 °C (77 °F). At this temperature, solutions with a pH of 7 are neutral (e.g. pure water). The pH neutrality relies on temperature, falling below 7 if the temperature rises above 25 °C.

The standard molar heat of fusion of ice is 6020 j/mol. calculate q, w, and ∆e for melting 1.00 mol of ice at 0◦c and 1.00 atm p

zysi [14]

Answer : q = 6020 J, w = -6020 J, Δe = 0

Solution : Given,

Molar heat of fusion of ice = 6020 J/mole

Number of moles = 1 mole

Pressure = 1 atm

Molar heat of fusion : It is defined as the amount of energy required to melt 1 mole of a substance at its melting point. There is no temperature change.

The relation between heat and molar heat of fusion is,

$q=\Delta H_{fusion}(\frac{Mass}{\text{ Molar mass}})$ (in terms of mass)

or, $q=\Delta H_{fusion}\times Moles$ (in terms of moles)

Now we have to calculate the value of q.

$q=6020J/mole\times 1Mole=6020J$

When temperature is constant then the system behaves isothermally and Δe is a temperature dependent variable.

So, the value of $\Delta e=0$

Now we have to calculate the value of w.

Formula used : $\Delta e=q+w$

where, q is heat required, w is work done and $\Delta e$ is internal energy.

Now put all the given values in above formula, we get

$0=6020J+w$

w = -6020 J

Therefore, q = 6020 J, w = -6020 J, Δe = 0

8) Determine whether mixing each pair of the following results in a buffera. 100.0 mL of 0.10 M NH3 with 100.0 mL of 0.15 MNH4Cl

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

a. 100.0 mL of 0.10 M NH₃ with 100.0 mL of 0.15 M NH₄Cl.

c. 50.0 mL of 0.15 M HF with 20.0 mL of 0.15 M NaOH.

Explanation:

A buffer system is formed in 1 of 2 ways:

A weak acid and its conjugate base.

A weak base and its conjugate acid.

Determine whether mixing each pair of the following results in a buffer.

a. 100.0 mL of 0.10 M NH₃ with 100.0 mL of 0.15 M NH₄Cl.

YES. NH₃ is a weak base and NH₄⁺ (from NH₄Cl ) is its conjugate base.

b. 50.0 mL of 0.10 M HCl with 35.0 mL of 0.150 M NaOH.

NO. HCl is a strong acid and NaOH is a strong base.

c. 50.0 mL of 0.15 M HF with 20.0 mL of 0.15 M NaOH.

YES. HF is a weak acid and it reacts with NaOH to form NaF, which contains F⁻ (its conjugate base).

d. 175.0 mL of 0.10 M NH₃ with 150.0 mL of 0.12 M NaOH.

NO. Both are bases.

For the following reaction, 7.53 grams of benzene (C6H6) are allowed to react with 8.33 grams of oxygen gas. benzene (C6H6) (l)

juin [17]

Answer:

The maximum amount of CO2 that can be formed is 9.15 grams CO2

O2 is the limiting reactant

There will remain 4.82 grams of benzene

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of benzene = 7.53 grams

Mass of oxygen gas = 8.33 grams

Molar mass of benzene = 78.11 g/mol

Molar mass oxygen gas = 32.00 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

2C6H6 + 15O2 → 12CO2 + 6H2O

Step 3: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles C6H6 = 7.53 grams / 78.11 g/mol

Moles C6H6 = 0.0964 moles

Moles O2 = 8.33 grams / 32.00 g/mol

Moles O2 = 0.2603 moles

Step 4: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 2 moles benzene we need 15 moles O2 to produce 12 moles CO2 and 6 moles H2O

O2 is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed ( 0.2603 moles). Benzene is in excess. there will react 2/15 * 0.2603 = 0.0347 moles

There will remain 0.0964 - 0.0347 = 0.0617 moles benzene

This is 0.0617 moles * 78.11 g/mol = <u>4.82 grams benzene</u>

<u />

Step 5: Calculate moles CO2

For 2 moles benzene we need 15 moles O2 to produce 12 moles CO2 and 6 moles H2O

For 0.2603 moles O2 we'll have 12/15 * 0.2603 = 0.208 moles CO2

Step 6: Calculate mass CO2

Mass CO2 = moles CO2 * molar mass CO2

Mass CO2 = 0.208 moles * 44.01 g/mol

<u>Mass CO2 = 9.15 grams</u>

How can we tell the difference between gases like hydrogen, oxygen, and carbon dioxide cause they all look to same?

alexgriva [62]

Answer:

The critical chemical difference is that CO2 contains one atom of carbon and two atoms of oxygen, whilst CO has one carbon and one oxygen atom.
