the balanced chemical equation for the reaction is as follows

H₃PO₄ + 3KOH ---> K₃PO₄ + 3H₂O

stoichiometry of H₃PO₄ to KOH is 1:3

first we have to find which the limiiting reactant is

as the amount of product formed depends on the amount of limiting reactant present

number of H₃PO₄ moles reacted - 4.4 mol

if H₃PO₄ is the limiting reactant

1 mol of H₃PO₄ reacts with 3 mol of KOH

then 4.4 mol of H₃PO₄ reacts with - 3 x 4.4 mol = 13.2 mol of KOH

but only 3.8 mol of KOH is present

therefore KOH is the limiting reactant


stoichiometry of KOH to K₃PO₄ is 3:1

number of KOH moles reacted - 3.8 mol

therefore number of K₃PO₄ formed = number of KOH moles reacted / 3

= 3.8 mol / 3 = 1.3 mol


answer is 1.3 mol of K₃PO₄

Explain how the attractive forces between the particles in a liquid are related to the equilibirum vapour pressure of that liqui
drek231 [11]

Answer:

Attractive forces between particles are inversely proportional to vapour pressure.

Explanation:

Inside a liquid, molecules undergo random motion (thermal motion), but also interact with one another via electromagnetic forces of different kinds, like Van der Waals forces, ion-dipole interactions, hydrogen bonds, etc. These forces keep the liquid together, giving it a definite volume, in distinction to gases, which take the volume of the vessel that contains them.

Now, some molecules in a liquid can attain a high velocity as a random outcome of thermal motion, if this molecule is at the liquid's surface, it might actually escape! actually, many molecules might do that, and form a vapour over the liquid's surface.

Now, we know that liquids exist, therefore this process has to reach an equilibrium, that means, once the vapour becomes <em>dense </em>(or <em>concentrated</em>)<em> </em>enough, it would be as likely for a vapour molecule to re-enter the liquid as it is likely for a liquid molecule to leave the liquid and enter into the vapour.

This is called vapour-liquid equilibrium.  

How can we measure how "concentrated" the vapour is? by measuring the pressure above the liquid. We know by the ideal gas law that the number of molecules in a gas is proportional to pressure at constant volume and temperature.

But how does vapour pressure relate to intermolecular forces?

Simply, the stronger the intermolecular forces, the less likely a molecule at the liquid's boundary will be to shoot of into the vapour phase! and viceversa, if intermolecular forces are very weak, the molecules won't hold together much and many molecules will leave the liquid.

As an extreme case imagine a solid, for which intermolecular forces are the strongest, what's the vapour pressure of a solid? Do solids evaporate into the air?  The answer is no, solids (with few exceptions) don't evaporate, and their vapour pressure is extremely small.

Cheers!

Explain why lithium fluoride is a solid at room temperature
SashulF [63]
Lithium fluoride is a solid at room temperature because it is a salt that is held together by ionic bonds. Lithium. fluoride has a giant ionic structure.

What effect would a decrease or increase in barometric pressure have on the boiling point
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

Pressure Affects the Boiling Point

Atmospheric pressure influences the boiling point of water. When atmospheric pressure increases, the boiling point becomes higher, and when atmospheric pressure decreases (as it does when elevation increases), the boiling point becomes lower.

What is the total number of protons in an atom with the electron configuration 2-8-18-32-18-1.
svp [43]

The total number of protons in this atom is 79 because an atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons. Here, the atomic number is 79 after adding the given electronic configuration.

What are Protons?

Every atom has a proton, a subatomic particle, in its nucleus. The particle possesses an electrical charge that is positive and opposite to the electrons.

What is Atom?

A nucleus plus one or more electrons bound to the nucleus make up an atom. The quantity of protons or electrons in an element's atom determines how different it is from other similar elements. The atomic number of an element, which serves as its primary identification, is the sum of its protons or electrons.

What is Electronic configuration?

The arrangement of electrons in atomic or molecular orbitals within an atom, molecule, or other physical structure is known as the electron configuration.

Hence, the total number of protons in this atom is 79, after adding 2 + 8 + 18 + 32 + 18 + 1.
