At what pH range bayer process operate? and why?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Novosadov [1.4K]3 years ago
3 0

Explanation:

Bayer process is industrial method of the refining of the bauxite to produce alumina which is aluminum oxide.

As alumina is amphoteric in nature, it exhibits a higher solubility at both the extremes of pH range, it is possible to dissolve alumina in low as well as in high pH solutions.

Dissolution of the alumina at high pH is well recognized in Bayer process. Bauxite is digested in very <u>high pH solution (> 13)  of alkali</u> like sodium hydroxide at temperature of about 150–250°C and pressure at 20 atm. <u>This is done so that the dissolved alumina is separated from rest of insoluble bauxite minerals. </u>

A precipitate forms when mixing solutions of sodium fluoride (NaF) and lead II nitrate (Pb(NO3)2). Complete and balance the net
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The molecular equation shows all the compounds involved in the reaction.

The molecular equation is as follows;

2NaF(aq) + Pb(NO3)2(aq) -------> PbF2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

The complete ionic equation shows all the ions involved in the reaction

The complete ionic equation;

2Na^+(aq) + 2F^-(aq) + Pb^2+(aq) + 2NO3^-(aq) -------->PbF(s) + 2Na^+(aq) +2NO3^-(aq)

The net Ionic equation shows the ions that actually participated in the reaction

The net ionic equation is;

2F^-(aq) + Pb^2+(aq)--------> PbF(s)

The dissolution of 0.200 l of sulfur dioxide at 19 °c and 745 mmhg in water yields 500.0 ml of aqueous sulfurous acid. The solut
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Molarity=1.22\ M

Explanation:

Given:  

Pressure = 745 mm Hg

Also, P (mm Hg) = P (atm) / 760

Pressure = 745 / 760 = 0.9803 atm

Temperature = 19 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (19 + 273.15) K = 292.15 K  

Volume = 0.200 L

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

0.9803 atm × 0.200 L = n × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 292.15 K  

⇒n = 0.008174 moles

From the reaction shown below:-

H_2SO_3+2NaOH\rightarrow Na_2SO_3+2H_2O

1 mole of H_2SO_4 react with 2 moles of NaOH

0.008174 mole of H_2SO_4 react with 2*0.008174 moles of NaOH

Moles of NaOH = 0.016348 moles

Volume = 13.4 mL = 0.0134 L ( 1 mL = 0.001 L)

So,

Molarity=\frac{Moles\ of\ solute}{Volume\ of\ the\ solution}

Molarity=\frac{0.016348}{0.0134}\ M

Molarity=1.22\ M
