What volume of 0.500 M HNO3(aq) must completely react to neutralize 100.0 milliliters of 0.100 M KOH(aq)?

1 answer:

6 0

KOH+ HNO3--> KNO3+ H2O
From this balanced equation, we know that 1 mol HNO3= 1 mol KOH (keep in mind this because it will be used later).

We also know that 0.100 M KOH aqueous solution (soln)= 0.100 mol KOH/ 1 L of KOH soln (this one is based on the definition of molarity).

First, we should find the mole of KOH:
100.0 mL KOH soln* (1 L KOH soln/ 1,000 mL KOH soln)* (0.100 mol KOH/ 1L KOH soln)= 1.00*10^(-2) mol KOH.

Now, let's find the volume of HNO3 soln:
1.00*10^(-2) mol KOH* (1 mol HNO3/ 1 mol KOH)* (1 L HNO3 soln/ 0.500 mol HNO3)* (1,000 mL HNO3 soln/ 1 L HNO3 soln)= 20.0 mL HNO3 soln.

The final answer is (2) 20.0 mL.

Also, this problem can also be done by using dimensional analysis.

Hope this would help~

Specific heat capacity is the quantity of heat required to raise the temperature of one mole of a substance by one degree Celsiu

sattari [20]

Answer

False

Explanation

Specific heat is the amount of heat per unit mass required to rise the temperature of a substance by one degree celsius.It is expressed in units of thermal energy per degree temperature.A calorimeter is used when measuring the heat capacity of a reaction.Molar heat capacity is amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a substance by one degree Celsius.

State the definition of the partial molar Gibbs energy.

balu736 [363]

Explanation :

As we know that the Gibbs free energy is not only function of temperature and pressure but also amount of each substance in the system.

$G=G(T,P,n_1,n_2)$

where,

$n_1\text{ and }n_2$ is the amount of component 1 and 2 in the system.

Partial molar Gibbs free energy : The partial derivative of Gibbs free energy with respect to amount of component (i) of a mixture when other variable $(T,P,n_j)$ are kept constant are known as partial molar Gibbs free energy of $i^{th}$ component.
