I just took the test it is A hope this helps :)
4, 2, 1, and 3 is the answer
Answer:
The solution is basic.
Explanation:
We can determine the nature of the solution via determining which has the large no. of millimoles (acid or base):
- If no. of millimoles of acid > that of base; the solution is acidic.
- If no. of millimoles of acid = that of base; the solution is neutral.
- If no. of millimoles of acid < that of base; the solution is basic.
- We need to calculate the no. of millimoles of acid and base:
no. of millimoles of acid (HNO₃) = MV = (1.3 M)(75.0 mL) = 97.5 mmol.
no. of millimoles of base (NaOH) = MV = (6.5 M)(150.0 mL) = 975.0 mmol.
<em>∴ The no. of millimoles of base (NaOH) is larger by 10 times than the acid (HNO₃).</em>
<em>So, the solution is: basic.</em>
The balanced chemical reaction for the described reaction above is,
Na2CO3 + 2HCl ---> 2NaCl + H2CO3
From the reaction, 1 mole of Na2CO3 is needed to produce 2 moles of NaCl. In terms of mass, 106 grams of Na2CO3 are needed to produce 116.9 grams of NaCl. From this,
(23.4 g NaCl) x (106 g Na2CO3 / 116.9 NaCl = 21.22 g Na2CO3
Thus, approximately 21.22 g Na2CO3 is needed for the desired reaction.
