In order to find out the %mass dolomite in the soil, calculate for the mass of dolomite using the information given from the titration procedure. You would need to multiply 57.85 ml with 0.3315 M HCl and you would get the amount of HCl in millimoles. Then multiply the amount of HCl with 1/2 (given that for every 1 mol of dolomite, 2 mol of HCl would be needed). Convert the amount of dolomite to mass by multiplying the millimoles with the molecular weight which is 184.399. Then convert the mass to grams which is 1.768 grams. Divide the mass of dolomite (1.768 grams) with the weight of soil sample. The % mass is 7.17.

Describe the reason why a reaction between two substances comes to an end.
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: The process by which a particular substance or different substances are transformed to another is called as Chemical Reaction.One reason, in the case of reversible reactions could be that the reaction reached equilibrium before the reaction was complete.Chemical reactions occur when chemical bonds between atoms are formed or broken. The substances that go into a chemical reaction are called the reactants, and the substances produced at the end of the reaction are known as the products.The concentration of reactants decreases as the reaction proceeds and at last their concentration comes to an end. Hence, the reaction stops too. If two reactants are being reacted, then the reactant which is in limited amount will consume first and will result in the termination of reaction.The usual reason is that one (or more) of the reactants gets used up.

Hope that was helpful.Thank you!!!

What determines the amount of chemical energy a substance has?
Ratling [72]


Chemical energy  is the kind of energy stored in the bonds formed by atoms and molecules in chemical compounds and elements.  This energy is  released during a chemical  reaction and  heat is often given out in the process. These kind of reactions where heat is given out as a by product are called exothermic reactions.

The major factor that determines how much chemical energy a substance has is the mass of that substance. Mass is defined as the amount of matter in a substance.

The higher  the mass of a substance, the more concentrated that substance is and subsequently the greater the number of atoms and molecules.

Logically, the higher the number of atoms and molecules  then the greater the number of bonds in that substance and subsequently the more the amount of chemical energy  stored therein.

A 2.5 L flask is filled with 0.25 atm SO3, 0.20 atm SO2, and 0.40 atm O2, and allowed to reach equilibrium. Assume at the temper
Anit [1.1K]

Explanation:

Reaction equation for the given chemical reaction is as follows.

      2SO_{3} \rightleftharpoons 2SO_{2} + O_{2}

Equation for reaction quotient is as follows.

         Q = \frac{P^{2}_{SO_{2}} \times P_{O_{2}}}{P^{2}_{SO_{3}}}

             = \frac{(0.20)^{2} \times 0.40}{(0.25)^{2}}

             = 0.256

As, Q > K (= 0.12)

The effect on the partial pressure of SO_{3} as equilibrium is achieved by using Q, is as follows.

  • This means that there are too much products.
  • Equilibrium will shift to the left towards reactants.
  • More SO_{3} is formed.
  • Partial pressure of SO_{3} increases.
