What is the function of control rods in a nuclear reactor?

In an aqueous solution, 42% of a substance dissociates to release hydronium ions. Which of the following statements is true for

const2013 [10]

Answer: The statement it is a weak acid is true for the substance.

Explanation:

An acid that dissociates completely when dissolved in water to give hydrogen $(H^{+})$ or hydronium $(H_{3}O^{+})$ ions is called a strong acid.

For example, HCl is a strong acid.

$HCl + H_{2}O \rightarrow H_{3}O^{+} + Cl^{-}$

An acid that dissociates partially or weakly when dissolved in water to given hydrogen or hydronium ions is called a weak acid.

For example, $CH_{3}COOH$ is a weak acid.

$CH_{3}COOH \rightleftharpoons CH_{3}COO^{-} + H_{3}O^{+}$

A strong base is a base which when dissolved in water then it dissociates completely to give hydroxide ions.

For example, NaOH is a strong acid.

A weak base is a base which when dissolved in water then it dissociates partially or weakly to give hydroxide ions.

For example, $NH_{3}$ is a weak base.

Hence, in an aqueous solution where 42% of a substance dissociates to release hydronium ions shows that the dissociation is less than 50%. This means that substance is dissociating weakly so, it is a weak acid.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement it is a weak acid is true for the substance.

1. Silver nitrate will react with aluminum metal, yielding aluminum nitrate and silver metal. If you start with 0.223 moles of a

Archy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

1)

Given data:

Number of moles of aluminium = 0.223 mol

Mass of silver produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3AgNO₃ + Al → 3Ag + Al(NO₃)₃

Now we will compare the moles of Al with silver.

Al : Ag

1 : 3

0.223 : 3×0.223= 0.669 mol

Grams of silver:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.669 mol × 107.87 g/mol

Mass = 72.2 g

2)

Given data:

Number of moles of mercury(II) oxide produced = 3.12 mol

Mass of mercury = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Hg + O₂ → 2HgO

Now we will compare the moles of mercury with mercury(II) oxide.

HgO : Hg

2 : 2

3.12 : 3.12

Mass of Hg:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3.12 mol × 200.59 g/mol

Mass = 625.84 g

3)

Given data:

Number of moles of dinitrogen pentoxide = 12.99 mol

Mass of oxygen = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2N₂ + 5O₂ → 2N₂O₅

Now we will compare the moles of N₂O₅ with oxygen.

N₂O₅ : O₂

2 : 5

12.99 : 5/2×12.99 = 32.48 mol

Mass of oxygen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 32.48 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass = 1039.36 g

4)

Given data:

Number of moles of benzene = 0.103 mol

Mass of carbon dioxide = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₆H₆ + 15O₂ → 12CO₂ + 6H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of N₂O₅ with oxygen.

C₆H₆ : CO₂

2 : 12

0.103 : 12/2×0.103 = 0.618 mol

Mass of carbon dioxide:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.618 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass = 27.192 g

One of the commercial uses of sulfuric acid is the production of calcium sulfate and phosphoric acid. If 26.8 g of Ca₃(PO₄)₂ rea

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The percent yield reaction is 64.3%

Explanation:

This is the ballanced reaction

Ca₃(PO₄)₂ (s) + 3H₂SO₄ (aq) → 2H₃PO₄ (aq) + 3CaSO₄ (aq)

Let's determine the moles of our reactants:

Mass / Molar mass = Mol

26.8 g / 310.18 g/m = 0.0864 moles of phosphate.

54.3 g / 98.06 g/m = 0.554 moles of sulfuric

1 mol of phosphate reacts with 3 mol of sulfuric so

0.0864 mol of PO₄⁻³ will react with (0.0864 .3)/1 = 0.259 moles

I have 0.554 of sulfuric, so this is the reactant in excess.

The limiting reagent is the Phosphate.

1 mol of PO₄⁻³ produces 2 mol of phosphoric

0.0864 of PO₄⁻³ will produce the double amount (0.0864 .2) = 0.173 moles

Mol . molar mass = Mass

0.173 m . 97.98g/m = 16.95 g (This is the theoretical yield)

Percent yield = (Produced / Theoretical) .100

(10.9 g / 16.95 g) . 100 = 64.3 %
