Answer:

\rm pOH \approx 1.279 if 2.95\; \rm g of \rm KOH is dissolved completely in water to make a 100\; \rm mL solution.

Explanation:

Look up the relative atomic mass data on a modern periodic table:

  • \rm K: 39.098.
  • \rm O: 15.999.
  • \rm H: 1.008.

Calculate the formula mass of \rm KOH:

\begin{aligned}&M(\mathrm{KOH})\\ &= 39.098 + 15.999 + 1.008 \\ &= 56.105\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

Find the number of moles of formula units in that 2.95\; \rm g of \rm KOH:

\begin{aligned}& n(\mathrm{KOH}) \\ & = \frac{m(\mathrm{KOH})}{M(\mathrm{KOH})} = \frac{2.95\; \rm g}{56.105\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 0.0525800\; \rm mol \end{aligned}.

\rm KOH is a strong base. When dissolved in water, it ionizes completely to produce \rm K^{+} ions and hydroxide ions (\rm OH^{-}.)

Note that there are one moles of \rm OH^{-} ions in each mole of \rm KOH formula units. When that 2.95\; \rm g of \rm KOH (approximately 0.0525800\; \rm mol of \rm KOH formula units) dissolves completely in water to make a 100\; \rm mL solution, about 0.0525800\; \rm mol of \rm OH^{-} ions will be produced.

Convert the unit of volume to liters: V = 100\; \rm mL = 0.1\; \rm L.

Calculate the concentration of \rm OH^{-} ions in that solution:

\begin{aligned}&[\mathrm{OH^{-}}] \\ &= \frac{n}{V} \approx \frac{0.0525800\; \rm mol}{0.1 \; \rm L} \approx 0.525800\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} \end{aligned}.

Calculate the \rm pOH of that solution:

\begin{aligned}& \mathrm{pOH} \\ &= -\log_{10}[\mathrm{OH^{-}}] \\ &\approx -\log_{10}(0.525800) \approx 1.279\end{aligned}.

Darin skateboarded to the north at 4 m/s. In 5 seconds, he sped up to 7 m/s. What was his acceleration?
Julli [10]
To solve this problem we can use following equation.

v =u + at

Where v is the final velocity (m/s), u is the initial velocity (m/s), a is the acceleration (m/s²) and t is the time taken (s).

v = 7 m/s
u = 4 m/s
a = ?
t = 5 s

By applying the equation, we can get
    7 m/s = 4 m/s + a x 5 s
    3 m/s = a x 5 s
          a = 0.6 m/s²

Hence, the acceleration is 0.6 m/s² towards north.

Methane and sulfur react to produce carbon disulfide (CS₂), a liquid often used in the production of cellophane.
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

9 moles

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation provided in this question is as follows:

2CH₄ + S₈ → 2CS₂ + 4H₂S

In accordance to the above balanced equation, 1 mole of sulphur (S8) produces 4 moles of hydrogen sulfide (H2S).

Therefore, if 2.25mol of S8 is used, 2.25 × 4 = 9 mol

9 moles of H2S is produced.
