Aqueous sulfuric acid will react with solid sodium hydroxide to produce aqueous sodium sulfate and liquid water . Suppose 6.9 g

of sulfuric acid is mixed with 3.14 g of sodium hydroxide. Calculate the maximum mass of sodium sulfate that could be produced by the chemical reaction. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

5.6gNa_2SO_4

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

2NaOH(aq)+H_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow Na_2SO_4(aq)+2H_2O(l)

Therefore, since the masses of both of the reactants are given, one computes the available moles of sulfuric acid and those moles of it consumed by the sodium hydroxide as shown below:

n_{H_2SO_4}^{available}=6.9gH_2SO_4*\frac{1molH_2SO_4}{98gH_2SO_4}=0.0704molH_2SO_4\\n_{H_2SO_4}^{consumed\ by\ NaOH}=3.14gNaOH*\frac{1molNaOH}{40gNaOH}*\frac{1molH_2SO_4}{2molNaOH}=0.04molH_2SO_4

In such a way, since there is more available sulfuric acid than it that is consumed, the sodium hydroxide is the limiting reagent, consequently, the maximum mass of sodium sulfate turns out:

m_{Na_2SO_4}=0.04molH_2SO_4*\frac{1molNa_2SO_4}{1molH_2SO_4} *\frac{142.04gNa_2SO_4}{1molNa_2SO_4}=5.6gNa_2SO_4

Best regards.

Naddik [55]
Catalyst has found usage in non-scientific terms as an almost metaphorical word for something provokes or speeds up action or change. The word's applicability to many topics made it easy for it to find its way out of the scientific lexicon and into other domains, in this case political. 

Its meaning is roughly the same, in that a catalyst in this context is something that facilitated or sped up the process of glasnost.

One distinct meaning that I notice is that "catalyst" in more casual or non-scientific speech is that it is often used as a creator of action all its own, an actor in itself, rather than a facilitating agent to a reaction, as its scientific definition states.

A piece of unknown metal with mass 68.6 g is heated to an initial temperature of 100 °C and dropped into 84 g of water (with an
laila [671]

The specific heat of metal is c = 3.433 J/g*⁰C.

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

mass of metal = 68.6 g

t metal = 100 °C

mass water = 84 g

t water = 20 °C

final temperature = 52.1  °C

Required

The specific heat

Solution

Heat can be formulated :

Q = m.c.Δt

Q absorbed by water = Q released by metal

84 x 4.184 x (52.1-20)=68.6 x c x (100-52.1)

11281.738=3285.94 x c

c = 3.433 J/g*⁰C.
