I need to know exactly how to do this

When a student mixes 50 mL of 1.0 M HCl and 50 mL of 1.0 M NaOH in a coffee-cup calorimeter, the temperature of the resultant so

zmey [24]

Answer: 54.4 kJ/mol

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the moles of HCl and NaOH.

$\text{Moles of HCl}=\text{Concentration of HCl}\times \text{Volume of solution}=1.0M\times 0.05=0.05mole$

$\text{Moles of NaOH}=\text{Concentration of NaOH}\times \text{Volume of solution}=1.0\times 0.05L=0.05mole$

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

$HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of HCl neutralizes by 1 mole of NaOH

So, 0.05 mole of HCl neutralizes by 0.05 mole of NaOH

Thus, the number of neutralized moles = 0.05 mole

Now we have to calculate the mass of water:

As we know that the density of water is 1 g/ml. So, the mass of water will be:

The volume of water = $50ml+50ml=100ml$

$\text{Mass of water}=\text{Density of water}\times \text{Volume of water}=1g/ml\times 100ml=100g$

Now we have to calculate the heat absorbed during the reaction.

$q=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

where,

q = heat absorbed = ?

$c$ = specific heat of water = $4.18J/g^oC$

m = mass of water = 100 g

$T_{final}$ = final temperature of water = $27.5^0C$

$T_{initial}$ = initial temperature of metal = $21.0^0C$

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

$q=100g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (27.5-21.0)^0C$

$q=2719.6J=2.72kJ$

Thus, the heat released during the neutralization = 2.72 KJ

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy of neutralization per mole of $HCl$ :

0.05 moles of $HCl$ releases heat = 2.72 KJ

1 mole of $HCl$ releases heat = $\frac{2.72}{0.05}\times 1=54.4KJ$

Thus the enthalpy change for the reaction in kJ per mol of HCl is 54.4 kJ

Why is it important to use low flame when evaporating water from a recovered filtrate?

goldfiish [28.3K]

It is important to use low flame when evaporating water from a recovered filtrate because then the water and filtrate will not spatter and the filtrate can also be recovered after evaporating water.

If flame is not low then water as well as got spatter so it is important to use low flame so that the water and filtrate will not spatter.

Which element below is the most reactive? Hydrogen chlorine neon oxygen

trapecia [35]

Answer:

Chlorine

Explanation:

Chlorine has an atomic number of 17 and a configuration of 2, 8, 7. In the outermost shell, it has 7 seven electrons which means that it needs just one more electron to attain an octet configuration in that shell. Therefore it's can react quickly with any nearby nucleophile.

The addition of an inert gas has no effect on the equilibrium position of a gaseous reaction because ______. Multiple choice que

boyakko [2]

Inert gas does not affect the equilibrium position:

It is because the partial pressures of the reaction components remain the same.

What is Inert Gas?

Under a given set of conditions, an inert gas is a gas that does not undergo chemical reactions.
The noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon) were previously known as "inert gases" due to their perceived lack of involvement in any biochemical processes.
Because inert gases are non-reactive, they do not affect equilibrium partial pressures and thus do not affect volume.
An inert gas does not react with the reactants or products; it does not change the concentration of the products and reactants. Furthermore, because the volume is constant, the concentrations are unaffected. As a result, this does not affect equilibrium.

The equilibrium position won't change if an inert gas is added. A volume change won't change the equilibrium position if the total moles of gas in the products and reactants are the same. When the volume is reduced, the process changes to create fewer moles of gas.
