Answer:
The amount of base needed is the amount that would give one mole of the hydroxide ion needed to neutralise one mole of the hydroxonium ion from the acid.
Explanation:
The chemical reaction between an acid and a base to form salt and water only is called a Neutralization reaction. Chemically
H⁺ + OH⁻ = H₂0
Hence, one mole of hydroxonium ion (H⁺) will combine with one mole of hydroxide ion (OH⁻) to give salt and water only.
In a completely neutralized reaction, the resulting salt is formed when there is complete dissociation of the acid and base to give salt and water with a pH of 7.
In the given question, the stated pH of between 8-9 tells us that the salt produced in this particular neutralization reaction is basic or alkaline. This usually occurs when a strong base reacts with a weak acid, producing a higher concentration of the hydroxide ion at equilibrium.
Hence the amount of base needed is the amount that would give one mole of the hydroxide ion needed to neutralise one mole of the hydroxonium ion from the acid.
If the concentration or molarity of the acid is known, then the exact amount of base required to neutralize it can be calculated. This is usually done via titrating the acid against drop wise solution of the base. Neutralization usually occurs when there is a change in colour of the resulting solution. The pH of the resulting solution can be determined using a litmus paper.
A blue litmus paper is indicative of a basic solution while a red litmus paper is indicative of an acidic solution.
Answer:
b) 7
Explanation:
The pH of a solution produced by the neutralization reaction between 1M of H₂SO₄ and KOH with 1M is closest to 7.
pH is a standard for measuring the acidity and alkalinity of a solution. A solution that is acidic will have a pH less than 7, a neutral solution will have pH of 7 and a basic solution will have pH greater than 7.
What is a neutralization reaction?
- It is an acid-base reaction in which hydrogen and hydroxide ions combines to form water.
- Also a salt results from the combination of the other ions.
In this reaction a base simply neutralizes an acid and the solution becomes neutral before it goes into completion.
Therefore, a neutral solution will have pH of 7 or close to it.
A positive solid sphere with electrons dispersed.
Answer:
[Au] = 0.171 M
Explanation:
For this question, we assume the rock is 100 % gold.
First of all, we determine the moles of gold
67.3 g . 1mol/ 196.97g = 0.342 moles
Molar concentration is defined as the moles of solute, contained in 1L of solution.
Our solution volume is 2L.
M = 0.342 mol / 2L = 0.171
Molar concentration, also called molarity of solution is the most typical unit of concentration.
Answer:
eg=linear, mg=linear
Explanation:
First of all, it must be stated that most triatomic molecules are either linear or bent. This depends on the electron geometry of the molecule and the number of bonding groups, multiple bonds and lone pairs present.
CO2 contains four regions of electron density and two bonding groups. For a specie containing two bonding groups, a linear molecular geometry is expected with an angle of 180°.
For a specie having two bonding groups and no lone pairs with multiple bonds, the expected electron geometry is also linear.
