After mg ribbon is reacted completely with air, what is the reason to add some water and heat?
Vikentia [17]

The reason why some water and heat are added after Mg ribbon is reacted completely with air is to remove Mg3N2 as MgO.

Combustion reaction is a reaction in which a substance is completely burnt in oxygen. Magnesium ribbon can be converted to magnesium oxide by combustion in air.

The reaction is as follows; 2Mg(s) + O2 ----> 2MgO(s)

Since air contains nitrogen, Mg3N2 is also formed. Heat and water can be added to the reaction thereby converting magnesium nitride to magnesium oxide.

Nick needs 3.5 moles of sodium fluoride (NaF) for a solution he is mixing in the lab. How many grams of NaF does Nick need to me
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

147 g

Explanation:

<em>The number of moles of a substance is the ratio of the mass of the substance and the molar mass of that substance.</em> Mathematically,

  mole = mass of substance/molar mass

In this case, Nick needs 3.5 moles of NaF, the molar mass of NaF is calculated as:

  23 + 19 = 42 g/mol (Note: Na = 23, F = 19)

Hence,

mass of 3.5 mole NaF = mole x molar mass

                              = 3.5 x 42 = 147 g.

<em>Hence, Nick would need to measure out </em><em>147 g</em><em> NaF using a suitable weighing balance.</em>

What is the pH of 0.26 M ammonium ion? NH4+(aq) + H2O(1) NH3(aq) + H30* (aq) a. 4.33 b.9.25 c. 3.87 d. 4.92 e. 4.75
choli [55]

Answer:

b) pH = 9.25

Explanation:

  • NH4+(aq)  +  H2O(l)  ↔  NH3(aq)  +  H3O+(aq)
  • NH3 + H2O ↔ NH4+  +  OH-
  • 2 H2O ↔ H3O+  +  OH-

⇒ Kb = [ NH4+ ] * [ OH- ] / [ NH3 ] = 1.86 E-5......from literature

mass balance NH4+:

⇒ M NH4+ = [ NH4+ ] - [ OH- ]

∴ [ NH3 ] ≅ M NH4+ = 0.26 M

⇒ Kb = (( 0.26 + [ OH- ] )) * [ OH- ] / 0.26 = 1.86 E-5

⇒ 0.26 [ OH-] + [ OH- ]² = 4.836 E-6

⇒ [ OH- ]² + 0.26 [ OH- ] - 4.836 E-6 = 0

⇒ [ OH- ] = 1.859 E-5 M

⇒ pOH = - Log ( 1.859 E-5 )

⇒ pOH = 4.7305

⇒ pH = 14 - pOH = 9.269

In standardizing a naoh solution a student found that 25.55cm of base neutralize exactly 21.35cm of 0.12M HCl find the molarity
nalin [4]

Answer:

O.1M

Explanation:

First let's generate a balanced equation for the reaction

NaOH + HCl —>NaCl + H2O

From the equation,

The ratio of the acid to base is 1:1.

From the question, we obtained the following:

Ma = Molarity of acid = 0.12M

Va = volume of acid = 21.35cm3

Vb = volume of base = 25.55cm3

Mb = Molarity of base =?

We obtained nA(mole of acid) and nB(mole of base) to be 1

The molarity of the base can be calculated for using:

MaVa/ MbVb = nA / nB

0.12x21.35 / Mb x 25.55 = 1

Cross multiply to express in linear form

Mb x 25.55 = 0.12x21.35

Divide both side by 25.55

Mb = (0.12x21.35) / 25.55

Mb = 0.1M

The molarity of the base is 0.1M
