Answer:

The molality of HNO3 is 33.75 molal

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

mass % of HNO3 = 68 %

Step 2: Calculate masses

If the mass % of HNO3 is 68 %, this means that 68 of 100 grams are HNO3

This means that 100-68 = 32 grams are water.

So mass HNO3 = 68 grams

Mass H2O = 32 grams

mass solution = 100 grams

Step 3: Calculate moles HNO3

Moles HNO3 = mass HNO3 / molar mass HNO3

Moles HNO3 = 68.0 grams / 63.02 g/mol

Moles HNO3 = 1.08 moles

Step 4: Calculate molality

Molality = number of moles HNO3 / mass of water

Molality = 1.08 moles / 0.0320 kg

Molality = 33.75 molal

The molality of HNO3 is 33.75 molal

Answer:

33.8 m

Explanation:

(a) We want to know the molality of nitric acid in a concentrated solution of nitric acid (68.0% HNO₃ by mass).

Step 1: Determine the mass of HNO₃ and water in 100 grams of solution.

Step 2: Convert the mass of HNO₃ to moles.

Step 3: Convert the mass of water to kilograms.

Step 4: Calculate the molality.

(b)

Step 1

In 100 g of solution, there are 68.0 g of HNO₃ and 100 g - 68.0 g = 32.0 g of water.

Step 2

The molar mass of HNO₃ is 63.01 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 68.0 g are:

68.0 g × (1 mol/63.01 g) = 1.08 mol

Step 3

The mass of water is 32.0 g = 0.0320 kg

Step 4

The molality of HNO₃ is:

m = moles of solute / kilograms of solvent

m = 1.08 mol / 0.0320 kg

m = 33.8 m

3241004551 [841]
This is an acid base reaction and the chemical equation for the above reaction is as follows;
KOH  + HClO₄ ---> KClO₄ + H₂O
the stoichiometry of acid to base is 1:1
KOH is a strong base and HClO₄ is a strong acid therefore they both ionize completely into their respective ions
Number of KOH moles - 0.723 M/1000 mL/L x 25.0 mL = 0.018 mol
Number of HClO₄ moles - 0.273 M/1000 mL/L x 50 mL = 0.013 mol 
since acid and base react completely, 0.013 mol of acid reacts with 0.013 mol of base.
The excess base remaining is - 0.018 - 0.013 = 0.005 mol 
total volume of solution = 25.0 mL + 50.0 mL = 75.0 mL 
[OH⁻] = 0.005 mol/0.075 L = 0.067 M 
pOH = -log[OH⁻]
pOH = -log(0.067 M)
pOH = 1.17
pOH + pH = 14
Therefore pH = 14 - 1.17 = 12.83
by knowing pH we can calculate the [H₃O⁺]
pH = -log [H₃O⁺]
[H₃O⁺] = antilog[-12.83]
[H₃O⁺]= 1.47 x 10⁻¹³ M

The boiling point of water is 1000C.
sergejj [24]

Answer:

a) The heat which we supply to water during boiling is used to overcome these forces of attraction between the particles so that they become totally free and change into a gas. This latent heat does not increase the kinetic energy of water particles and hence no rise in temperature takes place during the boiling of water.

b) Steam produces more severe burns than boiling water even though both are at 100oC because steam contains more heat, in the form of latent heat, than boiling water.
