Answer:

C₂H₄O₂ and NaC₂H₃O₂ are reactants.

Explanation:

Word equation:

Acetic acid + sodium acetate → sodium diacetate

Chemical equation:

C₂H₄O₂ + NaC₂H₃O₂ → C₄H₇NaO₄

This is a synthesis reaction in which simple reactants combine to form complex product.

This is also balanced chemical equation because there are equal number of atoms of all elements on both side of equation. Thus it follow the law of conservation of mass.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

How many moles of Cu(OH)2 are soluble in 1L of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) when the pH is 8.23?

Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

4.96E-8 moles of Cu(OH)2

Explanation:

Kps es the constant referring to how much a substance can be dissolved in water. Using Kps, it is possible to know the concentration of weak electrolytes. Then, pKps is the minus logarithm of Kps.

Now, we know that sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a strong electrolyte, who is completely dissolved in water. Therefore the pH depends only on OH concentration originating from NaOH. Let us to figure out how much is that OH concentration.

$pH= -log[H]\\pH= -log (\frac{kw}{[OH]})$

$8.23 = - log(\frac{Kw}{[OH]} \\10^{-8.23} = Kw/[OH]\\ [OH] = Kw/10^{-8.23}$

$[OH]=1.69E-6$

This concentration of OH affects the disociation of Cu(OH)2. Let us see the dissociation reaction:

$Cu(OH)_2 -> Cu^{2+} + 2OH^-$

In the equilibrum, exist a concentration of OH already, that we knew, and it will be added that from dissociation, called "s":

The expression for Kps is:

$Kps= [Cu^{2+}] [OH]^2$

The moles of (CuOH)2 soluble are limitated for the concentration of OH present, according to the next equation.

$Kps= s*(2s+1.69E-6)^2$

"s" is the soluble quantity of Cu(OH)2.

The solution for this third grade equation is $s=4.96E-8 mol/L$

Now, let us calculate the moles in 1 L:

$moles Cu(OH)_2 = 4.96E-8 mol/L * 1 L = 4.96E-8 moles$

How do I balance this equation?

gavmur [86]

Answer: place a 2 in front of NaNo3 on left side of equation while leaving the other blanks empty or you can place a 1 in those blanks

Explanation:

Step 1 count and write down the amount of each given element for both sides

Step 2 begin placing numbers (coefficients) to each side to balance

Read the following reactions.

garik1379 [7]

Answer:

Only Reaction 1

Explanation:

In reaction 1, there is a change in state from solid to liquid. Hence, there is an increase in number of ways particles and their energies could be arranged. As a result, entropy increases.

In reaction 2, there is a decrease in amount of gas particles (4 mol to 2 mol). Hence there is a decrease in the number of ways particles and their energies could be arranged. As a result entropy decreases

The correct answer is actually

D. requires a lot of energy to become hot.

As the definition of specific heat is "the heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount."
