Answer:

0.1 M

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial volume (V1) = 100 mL

Initial concentration (C1) = 0.5 M

Final volume (V2) = 500 mL

Final concentration (C2) =?

Using the dilution formula C1V1 = C2V2, the new concentration of the solution can be obtained as follow:

C1V1 = C2V2

0.5 × 100 = C2 × 500

50 = C2 × 500

Divide both side by 500

C2 = 50/500

C2 = 0.1 M

Therefore, the new concentration of the solution is 0.1 M

Write the balanced NET IONIC equation for the reaction that occurs when perchloric acid and calcium hypochlorite are combined. I

Elanso [62]

Answer:

$H^+(aq)+(ClO)^-(aq)\rightarrow HClO{(aq)}$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since perchloric acid is HClO4 and is a strong acid and calcium hypochlorite is Ca(ClO)2, the undergoing molecular chemical reaction turns out:

$2HClO_4{(aq)}+Ca(ClO)_2{(aq)}\rightarrow 2HClO{(aq)}+Ca(ClO_4)_2{(aq)}$

Thus, since the resulting hypochlorous acid is weak, it does not fully ionize, so it remains unionized, however, we can write the ions for the other species:

$2H^++2(ClO_4)^-+Ca^{2+}+2(ClO)^-\rightarrow 2HClO{(aq)}+Ca^{2+}+2(ClO_4)^-$
