Answer:

By finding a chemical formula with H as a cation (positively charged ion), you can immediately know that the compound is an acid.

Explanation:

<u><em> By finding a chemical formula with H as a cation (positively charged ion), you can immediately know that the compound is an acid.</em></u>

According to the Arrhenius Acid-Base Theory, acids are those substances that dissolved in water divide by generating H⁺ together with an anion (ion with a negative charge). In an aqueous solution, the H⁺ protons react immediately with the water molecules to form H₃O⁺ hydronium ions.

According to this theory, those acids that dissociate completely are strong acids (releasing all protons H⁺), while acids that do not dissociate completely are weak acids (the percentage of dissociation is not 100%, releasing few protons H⁺)

An example is:

HCl + H₂O ⇒ Cl⁻ + H₃O⁺

This is an example of a strong acid.

Number of grams of hcl that can react with 0.500 grams of Al(OH)3
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

0.7g of HCl

Explanation:

First, let us write a balanced equation for the reaction between HCl and Al(OH)3.

This is illustrated below:

Al(OH)3 + 3HCl —> AlCl3 + 3H2O

Next, let us obtain the masses of Al(OH)3 and HCl that reacted together according to the equation. This can be achieved as shown below:

Molar Mass of Al(OH)3 = 27 + 3(16+1)

= 27 + 3(17) = 27 + 51 = 78g/mol.

Molar Mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5g/mol

Mass of HCl from the balanced equation = 3 x 36.5 = 109.5g

Now we can obtain the mass of HCl that would react with 0.5g of Al(OH)3. This can be achieved as follow:

Al(OH)3 + 3HCl —> AlCl3 + 3H2O

From the equation above,

78g of Al(OH)3 reacted with 109.5g of HCl.

Therefore, 0.5g of Al(OH)3 will react with = (0.5 x 109.5)/78 = 0.7g of HCl

How many Liters of space will a 70.0g sample of CO2 occupy?
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

  35.6 liters at STP

Explanation:

The molar mass of carbon dioxide is about 44.01 g/mol. The volume of a mole of ideal gas at STP is 22.4 L, so the volume of 70.0 g will be ...

  (70.0g)/(44.01 g/mol)·(22.4 L/mol) ≈ 35.6 L
