Addition of 12 M (concentrated) HCl to saturated NaCl results in precipitation of NaCl. Yet when 1 M HCl is added to the same Na

Cl solution, no precipitate forms. Explain.
Chemistry
1 answer:
Marina86 [1]3 years ago

Answer:

When we add 12M HCl, reaction quotient Qsp becomes greater than Ksp of NaCl leading to precipitation

Explanation:

When sodium chloride is dissolved in water, the equilibrium dissolution process known as Ksp is set up as typified by the equation;

NaCl(s)------> Na^+(aq) + Cl^-(aq)

According to Le Chatelier's principle, this system will remain in equilibrium after the addition of the 1M HCl. This explains why there will not be any change in the system after adding this solution.

However, addition of 12 M HCl will significantly distort the equilibrium position since there is now more Cl^- ion in the system. The system now seeks to relieve this stress by recrystallizing more sodium chloride leading to the formation of a precipitate. Succinctly put, when we add the 12M HCl, the reaction quotient Qsp becomes greater than Ksp of NaCl leading to precipitation of NaCl crystals.

A mixture of 5L of H2 and 3L O2 reacts to form H2O (g) at constant T and P .Find the
slamgirl [31]

The  volume of H₂O = 5 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

5L of H₂ and 3L O₂

Reaction

2H₂ (g) + O₂(g)  ⇒2H₂O(g)

Required

The  volume of H₂O

Solution

Avogadro's hypothesis:  

<em>In the same T,P and V, the gas contains the same number of molecules  </em>

So the ratio of gas volume will be equal to the ratio of gas moles  

mol H₂ = 5, mol O₂ = 3

  • Find limiting reactants

From equation, mol ratio H₂ : O₂ = 2 : 1, so :

\tt H_2\div O_2=\dfrac{mol~H_2}{coefficient}\div \dfrac{mol~O_2}{coefficient}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{2}\div \dfrac{3}{1}=2.5\div 3\rightarrow H_2~limiting~reactant(smaller~ratio)

  • Find volume H₂O

mol H₂O based on mol H₂, and from equation mol ratio H₂ : H₂O=2 : 2, so mol H₂O = 5 mol and the volume also 5 L

Most metamorphosis processes take place
Ugo [173]

Most metamorphic processes take place a few kilometers below Earth's surface. Metamorphic processes result due to intense heat and high pressure below the Earth's surface. Also, metamorphism can occur on two scales, contact and regional.

Chloral, Cl3C―CH═O, reacts with water to form the sedative and hypnotic agent chloral hydrate, Cl3C―CH(OH)2. Draw Lewis structur
Paul [167]

Answer:

See attached figure.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given substances, we recall the concept of Lewis structure as such showing the bonds and valence electrons each atom has in the molecule. Thus, since chlorine atoms have seven valence electrons, carbon atoms four of them, hydrogen atoms have 1 and oxygen atoms 6, we are able to draw such Lewis dot structures, by obeying the octet as shown on the attached figure.

Best regards!

Which best describes the molecules of an ideal gas
Serhud [2]
Options are as follow,

A)  <span>Constant volume, no intermolecular forces of attraction,energy loss in collisions 

B)  </span><span>No volume, strong intermolecular forces of attraction, perfectly elastic collisions

C)  </span><span>Constant volume, no intermolecular forces of attraction, energy gain during collisions

D)  </span><span>No volume, no intermolecular forces of attraction, perfectly elastic collisions

Answer:
            Option-D (</span>No volume, no intermolecular forces of attraction, perfectly elastic collisions) is the correct answer.

Explanation:
                   As we know there are no interactions between gas molecules due to which they lack shape and volume and occupies the shape and volume of container in which they are kept. So, we can skip Option-B. 
                   Secondly we also know that the gas molecules move randomly. They collide with the walls of container causing pressure and collide with each other. And these collisions are perfectly elastic and no energy is lost or gained during collisions. Therefore Option-A and C are skipped.
                   Now we are left with only Option-D, In option D it is given that ideal gas has no volume. This is true related to Ideal gas as it is stated in ideal gas theories that molecules are far apart from each other and the actual volume of gas molecules compared to volume of container is negligible. Hence, for ideal gas Option-D is a correct answer.
