Answer:The Lewis acid the in the given reaction is Cr^{3+} ion.

Explanation:

According Lewis Theory of  acid base concept:

  • Acids are those who accepts pair of electron pair
  • Bases are those who donates pair of electron pair.

Cr^{3+}(aq)+6H_2O(aq)\rightleftharpoons Cr(H2O)_{6}^{3+}(aq)

In the above reaction chromium (III) ion is acting as a Lewis acid and water is acting as Lewis base. Chromium ion easily accepts the electron pair that is lone pair of oxygen atom present in water molecule.

In the reaction,
Cr3+(aq) + 6H2O -------> [Cr(H2O)6]3+(aq)
Cr3+ IS THE LEWIS ACID H2O is the Lewis base.
A Lewis acid is a compound or chemical that accepts a lone pair of electrons. In the above equation, Cr3+ is accepting the lone pair of electrons.

Answer:

Mass =  42.8g

Explanation:

4 NH 3 ( g ) + 5 O 2 ( g ) ⟶ 4 NO ( g ) + 6 H 2 O ( g )

Observe that every 4 mole of ammonia requires 5 moles of oxygen to obtain 4 moles of Nitrogen oxide and 6 moles of water.

Step 1: Determine the balanced chemical equation for the chemical reaction.

The balanced chemical equation is already given.

Step 2: Convert all given information into moles (through the use of molar mass as a conversion factor).

Ammonia = 63.4g × 1mol / 17.031 g = 3.7226mol

Oxygen = 63.4g × 1mol / 32g = 1.9813mol

Step 3: Calculate the mole ratio from the given information. Compare the calculated ratio to the actual ratio.

If all of the 1.9831 moles of oxygen were to be used up, there would need to be 1.9831 × 4 / 5 or 1.5865 moles of Ammonia. We have 3.72226 moles of ammonia - Far excess. Because there is an excess of Ammonia, the Oxygen amount is used to calculate the amount of the products in the reaction.

Step 4: Use the amount of limiting reactant to calculate the amount of H2O produced.

5 moles of O2  = 6 moles of H2O

1.9831 moles = x

x = (1.9831 * 6 ) / 5

x = 2.37972 moles

Mass of H2O = Molar mass * Molar mass

Mass = 2.7972 * 18

Mass =  42.8g

Calculate the maximum volume in ml of 0.15M HCl that each of the following antacid formulations would be expected to neutralize.
vlada-n [284]

a. 34 mL; b. 110 mL

a. A tablet containing 150 Mg(OH)₂


Mg(OH)₂ + 2HCl ⟶ MgCl₂ + 2H₂O


<em>Moles of Mg(OH)₂</em> = 150 mg Mg(OH)₂ × [1 mmol Mg(OH)₂/58.32 mg Mg(OH)₂

= 2.572 mmol Mg(OH)₂


<em>Moles of HCl</em> = 2.572 mmol Mg(OH)₂ × [2 mmol HCl/1 mmol Mg(OH)₂]

= 5.144 mmol HCl


Volume of HCl = 5.144 mmol HCl × (1 mmol HCl/0.15 mmol HCl) = 34 mL HCl


b. A tablet containing 850 mg CaCO₃


CaCO₃ + 2HCl ⟶ CaCl₂ + CO₂ + H₂O


<em>Moles of CaCO₃</em> = 850 mg CaCO₃ × [1 mmol CaCO₃/100.09 mg CaCO₃

= 8.492 mmol CaCO₃


<em>Moles of HCl</em> = 8.492 mmol CaCO₃ × [2 mmol HCl/1 mmol CaCO₃]

= 16.98 mmol HCl


Volume of HCl = 16.98 mmol HCl × (1 mL HCl/0.15 mmol HCl) = 110 mL HCl
