Answer:

Mass of hydrogen gas produced = 0.2 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Mg = 0.2 mol

Number of moles of HCl = 0.2 mol

Mass of hydrogen gas produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Mg + 2HCl       →     MgCl₂ + H₂

Now we will compare the moles of of hydrogen with Mg and HCl.

                   Mg          :        H₂

                    1             :         1

                   0.2          :       0.2

                 HCl           :       H₂

                   2             :         1

                0.2            :         1/2×0.2 = 0.1

HCl produced less number of moles of hydrogen gas it will act as limiting reactant.

Mass of hydrogen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.1 mol × 2 g/mol

Mass = 0.2 g

What is the ph of a 0.45 m solution of aniline (c6h5nh2)? (pkb  9.40)?
mote1985 [20]

Answer is: pH of aniline is 9.13.<span>
Chemical reaction: C</span>₆H₅NH₂(aq)+ H₂O(l) ⇌ C₆H₅NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq).

pKb(C₆H₅NH₂) = 9.40.

Kb(C₆H₅NH₂) = 10∧(-9.4) = 4·10⁻¹⁰.

c₀(C₆H₅NH₂) = 0.45 M.

c(C₆H₅NH₃⁺) = c(OH⁻) = x.

c(C₆H₅NH₂) = 0.45 M - x.

Kb = c(C₆H₅NH₃⁺) · c(OH⁻) / c(C₆H₅NH₂).

4·10⁻¹⁰ = x² /  (0.45 M - x). 

Solve quadratic equation: x = c(OH⁻) = 0.0000134 M.

pOH = -log(0.0000134 M.) = 4.87.

pH = 14 - 4.87 = 9.13.
