The dependent variable is the variable that changes based on the independent variable (the manipulated variable).

Values of dependent variables depend on the values of independent variables. The dependent variables represent the output or outcome whose variation is being studied.

A chemistry student weighs out of sulfurous acid , a diprotic acid, into a volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark with distill

nadezda [96]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

A chemistry student weighs out 0.104 g of sulfurous acid, a diprotic acid, into a 250.0 mL volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark with distilled water. He plans to titrate the acid with 0.0700 M NaOH solution. Calculate the volume of NaOH solution the student will need to add to reach the final equivalence point. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: The volume of NaOH needed is 36.2 mL

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

Given mass of sulfurous acid = 0.104 g

Molar mass of sulfurous acid = 82 g/mol

Volume of solution = 250 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molarity of sulfurous acid}=\frac{0.104\times 1000}{82\times 250}\\\\\text{Molarity of sulfurous acid}=5.07\times 10^{-3}M$

To calculate the volume of base, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is $H_2SO_3$

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is NaOH.

We are given:

$n_1=2\\M_1=5.07\times 10^{-3}M\\V_1=250mL\\n_2=1\\M_2=0.0700M\\V_2=?mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$2\times 5.07\times 10^{-3}\times 250.0=1\times 0.0700\times V_2\\\\V_2=\frac{2\times 5.07\times 10^{-3}\times 250}{1\times 0.0700}=36.2mL$

Hence, the volume of NaOH needed is 36.2 mL

Lab Scenario D:

Cloud [144]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A reaction in which heat and light are produced is a combustion reaction. Combustion is said to have occurred when a substance is burnt in oxygen.

The balanced equation of the reaction is;

4Li(s) + O2(g) ------->2Li2O(s)

This reaction is exothermic because heat was produced. The reaction has a low activation energy as the metal easily burst into flames in oxygen. A catalyst is not needed in this reaction because it has a low activation energy.

According to the law of conservation of mass. Atoms are neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction. What this means is that in a chemical reaction, the number of atoms of each element on the left hand side must be the same as the same as the number of atoms of the same element on the right hand side.
