Why factory waste should be neutralized before disposing it into the water bodies?
Fudgin [204]

Explanation:

Factory wastes are usually acidic and they pose serious environmental challenges.

If an untreated acidic waste is discharged into the river, the acidity of the river increases and this is toxic to life in the water.

On land, the acid can enter into the soil and prevent plant growth.

Acid discharge can enter the groundwater system and render it unfit for use.

Bases and a couple of additives are used to remove acidity from factory wastes before they are discharged.

What would the pOH of a solution be if the pH is 9.4
Alika [10]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

pOH = 4.6

<h2>Explanations:</h2>

The sum of pH and pOH of a solution is 14as shown:

pH+pOH=14

Given the following parameter

pH = 9.4

Substitute the given parameters into the formula to have:

\begin{gathered} 9.4+pOH=14 \\ pOH=14-9.4 \\ pOH=4.6 \end{gathered}

Hence the pOH of the solution of pH of 9.4 is 4.6

A student is asked to standardize a solution of potassium hydroxide. He weighs out 1.08 g potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHC8H4O4
natka813 [3]

Answer:

A. 0.143 M

B. 0.0523 M

Explanation:

A.

Let's consider the neutralization reaction between potassium hydroxide and potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP).

KOH + KHC₈H₄O₄ → H₂O + K₂C₈H₄O₄

The molar mass of KHP is 204.22 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 1.08 g are:

1.08 g × (1 mol/204.22 g) = 5.28 × 10⁻³ mol

The molar ratio of KOH to KHC₈H₄O₄ is 1:1. The reacting moles of KOH are 5.28 × 10⁻³ moles.

5.28 × 10⁻³ moles of KOH occupy a volume of 36.8 mL. The molarity of the KOH solution is:

M = 5.28 × 10⁻³ mol / 0.0368 L = 0.143 M

B.

Let's consider the neutralization of potassium hydroxide and perchloric acid.

KOH + HClO₄ → KClO₄ + H₂O

When the molar ratio of acid (A) to base (B) is 1:1, we can use the following expression.

M_{A} \times V_{A} = M_{B} \times V_{B}\\M_{A} = \frac{M_{B} \times V_{B}}{V_{A}} \\M_{A} = \frac{0.143 M \times 10.1mL}{27.6mL}\\M_{A} =0.0523 M

Could someone describe a procedure to separate a mixture of salt, sand, and water?
frosja888 [35]
Water and salt, since the salt has dissolved into the water, assumingly, and sand isn't dissolvable so it can't pass through. If the water were to dry up, then you'd get the salt back, then it won't be able to go through the filter
