Spent fuel that can no longer be used to create energy is waste.
Answer:
32.3 dm³
Explanation:
Data given:
no. of molecules of Cl₂ = 8.7 x 10²³
Volume of chlorine gas (Cl₂) = ?
Solution:
First we have to find number of moles
For this formula used
no. of moles = no. of molecules / Avogadros number
no. of moles = 8.7 x 10²³ / 6.022 x 10²³
no. of moles = 1.44 moles
Now we have to find volume of the gas
for this formula used
no. of moles = volume of gas / molar volume
molar volume = 22.4 dm³/mol
Put values in above equation
1.44 moles = volume of Cl₂ gas / 22.4 dm³/mol
rearrange the above equation
volume of Cl₂ gas = 1.44 moles x 22.4 dm³/mol
volume of Cl₂ gas = 32.3 dm³
HCl and NaOH react in a 1:1 ratio, meaning that 1 H+ from HCl will react with 1 OH- from NaOH. Knowing this, and that molarity is mol/liter, all we need to do is use what we have available. First we must find the mols of HCl in our solution, so we set up the following equation in the following steps:
1. 24.75mL x (0.359mol NaOH / 1000mL) = 8.885 x 10^-3mol NaOH
This is done in order to find the mols of NaOH to convert to mols of HCl.
2. 8.885x10^-3mol NaOH x (1 mol HCl/1mol NaOH) = 8.885 x 10^-3mol HCl
Here we just used the mols of NaOH we found to convert to mols of HCl using the 1:1 ratio described earlier.
From the mols of HCl all we have to do is divide by the amount of liters in the solution. Since we started with 10mL HCl and added 24.75mL NaOH, the total volume is 34.75mL = 0.03475L. So:
8.885 x 10^-3mol HCl/0.03475L = 2.557 x 10^-1M HCl
However, this is the molarity of the HCl and NaOH solution, not the original HCl solution. Using the dilution equation M1V1=M2V2, we can solve for the original molarity.
M1 = the molarity of our HCl in the titrated mixture (2.557 x 10^-1M HCl)
V1 = the total volume that our mixture has (34.75mL = 0.03475L)
M2 = what we're trying to find
V2 = the amount of the original HCl that we had (10mL = 0.010L)
Simply solving for M2 gives us:
M2 = (M1V1) / V2 or:
M2=((2.557 x 10^-1) x 0.03475L) / 0.010L = 8.89 x 10^-1M HCl. That is your answer.
