Answer:

Pure substances can be divided into two groups: elements and compounds.

Explanation:

Pure substances can be recognized because they have a definite constant composition, as can be seen in the formula, and distinct chemical properties.

For example, H₂O is a pure substance where the relation of 2 atoms of Hydrogen to 1 atom of Oxygen is always true. O₂ is also a pure substance because 1 molecule of O₂ always contains two atoms of Oxygen.

As we can see from above, pure substances can be formed by one or more types of atoms. Substances formed by 2 or more types of atoms are known as compounds (e.g. H₂O, CO₂). Substances formed by 1 type of atoms are known as elements (e.g. Na, O₂, O₃).

Compounds and elements are kinds of pure substances, so they inherit all properties from them (definite constant composition, distinct chemical properties).

odium carbonate (Na2CO3Na2CO3) is used to neutralize the sulfuric acid spill. How many kilograms of sodium carbonate must be add

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer : The mass of sodium carbonate added to neutralize must be, $6.54\times 10^3kg$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of $H_2SO_4$ .

$\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=\frac{\text{Mass of }H_2SO_4}{\text{Molar mass of }H_2SO_4}$

Given:

Molar mass of $H_2SO_4$ = 98 g/mole

Mass of $H_2SO_4$ = $6.05\times 10^3kg=6.05\times 10^6g$

Conversion used : (1 kg = 1000 g)

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

$\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=\frac{6.05\times 10^6g}{98g/mol}=6.17\times 10^4mol$

The moles of $H_2SO_4$ is, $6.17\times 10^4mol$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $Na_2CO_3$

The balanced neutralization reaction is:

$Na_2CO_3+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+H_2CO_3$

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of $H_2SO_4$ neutralizes 1 mole of $Na_2CO_3$

So, $6.17\times 10^4mol$ of $H_2SO_4$ neutralizes

Now we have to calculate the mass of $Na_2CO_3$

$\text{ Mass of }Na_2CO_3=\text{ Moles of }Na_2CO_3\times \text{ Molar mass of }Na_2CO_3$

Molar mass of $Na_2CO_3$ = 106 g/mole

$\text{ Mass of }Na_2CO_3=(6.17\times 10^4mol)\times (106g/mole)=6.54\times 10^6g=6.54\times 10^3kg$

Thus, the mass of sodium carbonate added to neutralize must be, $6.54\times 10^3kg$
