Base is the opposite of Acidic.  So, with this knowledge, HCL can be ruled out as it is an acid.  It must then be H20 that is the base (which calling it a base can be deceiving if you are looking at the ph and not the equation)

A 25.0mL sample of an acetic acid solution is titrated with a 0.175M NaOH solution. The equivalence point is reached when 37.5mL
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

First of all, let's write the equation of the reaction.

CH₃COOH + NaOH  ⇒ CH₃COONa + H₂O

The formula to be used here is CaVa/CbVb = na/nb

where Ca is the concentration of the acid (?)

Cb is the concentration of the base (0.175M)

Va is the volume of the acid (25 mL)

Vb is the volume of the base (37.5 mL)

na is the number of moles of acid (1)

nb is the number of moles of base (1)

Ca × 25/0.175 × 37.5 = 1/1

Ca = 0.175 × 37.5 × 1 /25 ×1

Ca = 0.263 M

The concentration of the acid in the sample was 0.263 M

Solid carbon (C) can burn in oxygen (O2). Select
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

  • CO₂

Explanation:

The equation that you have to complete is:

  • C + O₂ → ?

This is, you have to find the products formed and the coefficients in front of each substance to balance the chemical equation.

Carbon may react with oxygen using oxidation number 2 or 4.

If carbon uses oxidation number 2, the chemical equation is:

  • 2C + O₂ → 2CO

If carbon uses oxidation number 4, the chemical equation is:

  • C + O₂ → CO₂

Normally, an incomplete combustion yields to a mixture of products: both CO and CO₂, and it only happens when the amount of oxygen is limitied.

When there is plenty of oxygen available, the combustion is complete and the only product of the reaction is CO₂.

With that information, and the fact that the list of choices do not include CO as product, you conclude that this is a complete combustion, and the chemical equation is:

  • C + O₂ → CO₂

So, the choice that completes the chemical equation is CO₂.

determine the longest wavelength of light required to remove an electron from a sample of potassium metal, if the binding energy
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The wavelength of light is 68 nm.

Explanation:

Given data:

Binding energy of electron = 176 × 10³ Kj/ mol or   (1.76× 10⁶ j/mol)

Wavelength of light require to remove the  electron = ?

Solution:

E = hc / λ

h = planck constant (6.63×10⁻³⁴ J/s)

c = speed of light = (3×10⁸ m/s)

The energy require per electron is

1.76 × 10⁶ j / 6.02× 10²³ = 2.92 × 10⁻¹⁸ J

Now we will put the values in formula,

E = hc / λ

λ =  hc / E

λ = 6.63×10⁻³⁴ m².kg.s⁻¹ . 3×10⁸ m/s / 2.92 × 10⁻¹⁸ J

λ = 19.89×10⁻²⁶ m /2.92 × 10⁻¹⁸   (m².kg.s⁻² = J)

λ = 6.8 ×10⁻⁸ m

λ = 6.8 ×10⁻⁸ × 10⁹

λ = 68 nm
