Answer:

0.185M sulfuric acid

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

H₂SO₄ + 2KOH → K₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

1 mole of sulfuric acid reacts with 2 moles of KOH

Initial moles of H₂SO₄ and KOH are:

H₂SO₄: 0.750L ₓ (0.470mol / L) = 0.3525 moles of H₂SO₄

KOH: 0.700L ₓ (0.240mol / L) = 0.168 moles of KOH

The moles of sulfuric acis that react with KOH are:

0.168mol KOH ₓ (1 mole H₂SO₄ / 2 moles KOH) = 0.0840 moles of sulfuric acid.

Thus, moles that remain are:

0.3525moles - 0.0840 moles = 0.2685 moles of sulfuric acid remains

As total volume is 0.700L + 0.750L = 1.450L, concentration is:

0.2685mol / 1.450L = 0.185M sulfuric acid

Calculate ΔH for the reaction: C(graphite) + 2H 2(g) + 1/2 O 2(g) => CH 3OH(l) Using the following information: C(graphite) +

Alika [10]

Answer:

$\Delta H$ for the given reaction is -238.7 kJ

Explanation:

The given reaction can be written as summation of three elementary steps such as:

$C(graphite)+O_{2}(g)\rightarrow CO_{2}(g)$ $\Delta H_{1}= -393.5 kJ$

$2H_{2}(g)+O_{2}(g)\rightarrow 2H_{2}O(l)$ $\Delta H_{2}= (2\times -285.8)kJ$

$CO_{2}(g)+2H_{2}O(l)\rightarrow CH_{3}OH(l)+\frac{3}{2}O_{2}(g)$ $\Delta H_{3}= 726.4 kJ$

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

$C(graphite)+2H_{2}(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_{2}(g)\rightarrow CH_{3}OH(l)$

$\Delta H=\Delta H_{1}+\Delta H_{2}+\Delta H_{3}=-238.7 kJ$

Write the mole ratios of (2ca+o2➡2cao)

tresset_1 [31]

N(Ca)/2 = n(O)/1 = n(CaO)/2

The calcium and the Calcium Oxide are divided by 2 because of their coefficients
there is no number in front of the oxygen so it is over one.
Hope this helped!!
