The most common way of preventing bumping is by adding one or two boiling chips to the reaction vessel. However, these alone may not prevent bumping and for this reason it is advisable to boil liquids in a boiling tube, a boiling flask, or an Erlenmeyer flask.
Answer:
See Explanation
Explanation:
The equation of the reaction;
KHSO4(aq) + KOH(aq) -------> K2SO4(aq) + H2O(l)
Number of moles of KHSO4 = 49.6 g/136.169 g/mol = 0.36 moles
Since the reaction is in a mole ratio of 1:1, 0.36 moles of K2SO4 is produced.
Number of moles of KOH = 25.3 g/56.1056 g/mol = 0.45 moles
Since the reaction is 1:1, 0.45 moles of K2SO4 is produced
Hence K2SO4 is the limiting reactant.
Mass of K2SO4 formed = 0.36 moles of K2SO4 * 174.26 g/mol = 62.7 g
So;
1 mole of KHSO4 reacts with 1 mole of KOH
0.36 moles of KHSO4 reacts with 0.36 * 1/1 = 0.36 moles of KOH
Amount of excess KOH = 0.45 moles - 0.36 moles = 0.09 moles
Mass of excess KOH = 0.09 moles * 56.1056 g/mol = 5 g of excess KOH
Answer:
C. number of particles
Explanation:
Entropy is the measure of disorderliness of a system. Remember that when you dissolve salt in water, you increase the number of particles in the solution. The greater the number of particles in solution, the greater the entropy of the solution system.
Hence dissolution of a salt in water increases the entropy by increasing the number of particles in solution leading to the inequality; Ssolution > Swater + Ssalt.
Answer: 52.5 mL
