<u>Answer:</u> The mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate that must be added is 27.28 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

Molarity of sulfuric acid solution = 5.8 M

Volume of solution = 28 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

5.8M=\frac{\text{Moles of sulfuric acid}\times 1000}{28mL}\\\\\text{Moles of sulfuric acid}=0.1624mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of sulfuric acid and sodium hydrogen carbonate follows:

H_2SO_4(aq.)+2NaHCO_3(aq.)\rightarrow Na_2SO_4(aq.)+2CO_2(g)+H_2O(l)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of sulfuric acid reacts with 2 moles of sodium hydrogen carbonate.

So, 0.1624 moles of sulfuric acid will react with = \frac{2}{1}\times 0.1624=0.3248mol of sodium hydrogen carbonate

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Molar mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate = 84 g/mol

Moles of sodium hydrogen carbonate = 0.3248 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.3248mol=\frac{\text{Mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate}}{84g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate}=(0.3248mol\times 84g/mol)=27.28g

Hence, the mass of sodium hydrogen carbonate that must be added is 27.28 g

First we have to refer to the reaction between the acid and the base: <span>

H2SO4 + 2 NaHCO3 ---> 2 H2O + 2 CO2 + Na2SO4 

From this balanced equation we can see that for every 1 mol of acid (H2SO4), we need 2 mol of base (NaHCO3) to neutralize it. Given 28 ml of 5.8 M acid, we need to find out how many mols of acid that is: 

<span>28mL * (1L/1000mL) * 5.8 mol/L =  0.1624 mol H2SO4</span></span>

<span>
Since we need 2 mol of base per mol of acid, we need:</span>

<span> 2*0.1624 mol = 0.3248 mol NaHCO3 </span><span>

MolarMass of NaHCO3 is 84.01 g/mol 

<span>0.3248 mol*(84.01g/mol) = 27.29 g NaHCO3</span></span>

The pressure of the gas in the flask (in atm) when Δh = 5.89 cm is 1.04 atm

<h3>Data obtained from the question</h3>

The following data were obtained from the question:

  • Atmospheric pressure (Pa) = 730.1 torr = 730.1 mmHg
  • Change in height (Δh) = 5.89 cm
  • Pressure due to Δh (PΔh) = 5.89 cmHg = 5.89 × 10 = 58.9 mmHg
  • Pressure of gas (P) =?

<h3>How to determine the pressure of the gas</h3>

The pressure of the gas can be obtained as illustrated below:

P = Pa + PΔh

P = 730.1 + 58.9

P = 789 mmHg

Divide by 760 to express in atm

P = 789 / 760

P = 1.04 atm

Thus, the pressure of the gas when Δh = 5.89 cm is 1.04 atm
