Is it possible to tell if an acid or base is strong or weak just by looking at its chemical formula?

Gre4nikov [31]

It is.

An acid will be strong when its conjugated base is highly stable, and vice-versa.

That can occur for instance through electronic delocalization.

Suppose a solution is prepared by dissolving 15.0 g NaOH in 0.150 L of 0.250 M nitric acid. What is the final concentration of O

Kipish [7]

Answer:

2.25 M is the final concentration of hydroxide ions ions in the solution after the reaction has gone to completion.

Explanation:

Moles of NaOH = $\frac{15.0 g}{40 g/mol}=0.375 mol$

Molarity of the nitric acid solution = 0.250 M

Volume of the nitric solution = 0.150 L

Moles of nitric acid = n

$Molarity=\frac{Moles}{Volume(L)}$

$n=0.250 M\times 0.150 L=0.0375 mol$

$NaOH+HNO_3\rightarrow NaNO_3+H_2O$

According to reaction, 1 mole of nitric acid recats with 1 mole of NaOH, then 0.0375 moles of nitric acid will react with :

$\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0375 mol$ of NaOH

Moles of NaOH left unreacted in the solution =

= 0.375 mol - 0.0375 mol = 0.3375 mol

$NaOH(aq)\rightarrow Na^+(aq)+OH^-(aq)$

1 mole of sodium hydroxide gives 1 mol of sodium ions and 1 mole of hydroxide ions.

Then 0.3375 moles of NaOH will give :

$1\times 0.3375 moles=0.3375 mol$ of hydroxide ion

The molarity of hydroxide ion in solution ;

$=\frac{0.3375 mol}{0.150 L}=2.25 M$

2.25 M is the final concentration of hydroxide ions ions in the solution after the reaction has gone to completion.

a compound has 15.39 g of gold for every 2.77 g of chlorine. simplified there is _____ g of gold for every 1 g of chlorine

iren [92.7K]

Answer:

There is 5.56 g of gold for every 1 g of chlorine

Explanation:

The ratio is the relationship between two numbers, defined as the ratio of one number to the other. So, the ratio between two numbers a and b is the fraction $\frac{a}{b}$
