<span>Dried fruits and raisins get terribly soggy after being drenched in milk for a long period of time. They act like a sponge, absorbing all of the milk up making them wet and "soggy". I prefer them to be like that when I eat my cereal in the morning.</span>

Density measurements were conducted on a 22.5oC sample of water which had a theoretical density of 0.997655 g/ml. A volume of 10
Sophie [7]

Let's divide the three experiments: The experiment with 10.00 mL of water is A), the experiment with 15.00 mL is B), and the experiment with 25.00 mL is C).

  • (1) Now let's calculate the experimental density of each experiment. Density (ρ) is equal to the mass divided by the volume, thus:

p_{A} =9.98g/10.00mL=0.998g/mL\\p_{B} =15.61g/15.00mL=1.041g/mL\\p_{C} =25.65g/25.00mL=1.026g/mL

  • (2)To calculate the average density, we add each density and divide the result by the number of experiments (in this case 3):

p_{average}=\frac{p_{1}+p_{2}+p_{3}}{3}   \\p_{average}=\frac{(0.998+1.041+1.026)g/mL}{3}\\p_{average}=1.022g/mL

  • (3) The percent error is calculated by dividing the absolute value of the substraction of the theorethical and experimental values, by the theoretical value, times 100:

%error=\frac{|p_{average}-p_{theoretical}|}{p_{theoretical}} *100

%error=\frac{|1.022g/mL-0.997655g/mL|}{0.997655g/mL}*100

%error=2.44 %

What is the pH of a solution that is 0.40 M NaBrO and 0.50 M HBrO (hypobromous acid) (Ka for HBrO = 2.3 x 10^-9)
Pie

Answer

pH=8.5414

Procedure

The Henderson–Hasselbalch equation relates the pH of a chemical solution of a weak acid to the numerical value of the acid dissociation constant, Kₐ. In this equation, [HA] and [A⁻] refer to the equilibrium concentrations of the conjugate acid-base pair used to create the buffer solution.

pH = pKa + log₁₀ ([A⁻] / [HA])

Where

pH = acidity of a buffer solution

pKa = negative logarithm of Ka

Ka =acid disassociation constant

[HA]= concentration of an acid

[A⁻]= concentration of conjugate base

First, calculate the pKa

pKa=-log₁₀(Ka)= 8.6383

Then use the equation to get the pH (in this case the acid is HBrO)

pH=8.6383+\log_{10}(\frac{0.40\text{ M}}{0.50\text{ M}})=8.5414

Phosphorous pentoxide, P2O5(s), is produced from the reaction between pure oxygen and pure phosphorous (P, solid). What is the v
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

4190.22 L = 4.19 m³.

Explanation:

  • For the balanced reaction:

<em>2P₂ + 5O₂ ⇄ 2P₂O₅. </em>

It is clear that 2 mol of P₂ react with <em>5 mol of O₂ </em>to produce <em>2 mol of P₂O₅.</em>

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 6.92 kilograms of P₂O₅ produced through the reaction:

no. of moles of P₂O₅ = mass/molar mass = (6920 g)/(283.88 g/mol) = 24.38 mol.

  • Now, we can find the no. of moles of O₂ is needed to produce the proposed amount of P₂O₅:

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

5 mol of O₂ is needed to produce → 2 mol of P₂O₅, from stichiometry.

??? mol of O₂ is needed to produce → 24.38 mol of P₂O₅.

∴ The no. of moles of O₂ needed = (5 mol)(24.38 mol)/(2 mol) = 60.95 mol.

  • Finally, we can get the volume of oxygen using the general law of ideal gas:<em> PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm (P = 606.1 mm Hg/760 = 0.8 atm).

V is the volume of the gas in L (V = ??? L).

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol (n = 60.95 mol).

R is the general gas constant (R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K),

T is the temperature of the gas in K (396.90°C + 273 = 669.9 K).

∴ V of oxygen needed = nRT/P = (60.95 mol)(0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(669.9 K)/(0.8 atm) = 4190.22 L/1000 = 4.19 m³.
