Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Note => 1st one should understand that for an 'acid' to be an acid and a 'base' to be a base, two requirements must be met, (1) the compound must have an ionizable Hydrogen for acids or Hydroxide for bases, and (2) must be in water and ionize delivering H⁺ ions from acids and OH⁻ ions from bases. The Arrhenius acids are characterized by having an ionizable hydrogen which when added into water increases the hydronium ion concentration (H₃O⁺). Arrhenius bases are characterized by having an ionizable hydroxide function (OH-).

Typically, the acids and bases are characterized as either strong or weak electrolytes. the Strong electrolytes ionize 100% in water and Weak electrolytes less than 100%.

The strong acids include HCl, HBr, HI, HNO₃, HClO₄ and H₂SO₄ (1st ionization step). Any acid (H-Anion) not a member of the strong 6 is a weak acid.

The strong Arrhenius Bases are Group IA and Group IIA Hydroxides except for Beryllium Hydroxide. Weak Arrhenius Bases are ammonia or ammonia derivatives (amines) in water.

=> NH₃ + H₂O => NH₄OH ⇄ NH⁺ + OH⁻.

The ammonia derivatives follow the same reactive nature in water.

=> RNH₂ + H₂O => RNH₃OH ⇄ RNH₃⁺ + OH⁻ where R- is a structural substrate; e.g., Methyl Amine => H₃C - NH₂ .

Is Ca-Ci a covalent or ionic bond and why?

taurus [48]

Ionic bond

Explanation:

Ca - Cl₂ is an ionic bond because it involves a true metal and a non-metal.

An ionic bond is an inter-atomic bond between two chemical species.

This bond forms between two atom with a large electronegative difference.
Often times, this corresponds to a metal and a non-metal.
The metal is the less electronegative specie and the non-metal is more electronegative
The metal such as Ca loses two electrons to become positively charge ion.
The non-metal gains the electrons. Here two atoms of Cl are turned to ions.
Electrostatic attraction between the metal and non-metal forms the ionic bonding.

one method for generating chlorine gas is by reacting potassium permanganate and hydrochloric acid. how many liters of Cl2 at 40

Ronch [10]

Answer: The volume of chlorine gas produced in the reaction is 2.06 L.

Explanation:

For potassium permanganate:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Given mass of potassium permanganate = 6.23 g

Molar mass of potassium permanganate = 158.034 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of potassium permanganate}=\frac{6.23g}{158.034g/mol}=0.039mol$

For hydrochloric acid:

To calculate the moles of hydrochloric acid, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of HCl = 6.00 M

Volume of HCl = 45.0 mL = 0.045 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$6.00mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of HCl}}{0.045L}\\\\\text{Moles of HCl}=0.27mol$

For the reaction of potassium permanganate and hydrochloric acid, the equation follows:

$2KMnO_4+16HCl\rightarrow 2MnCl_2+5Cl_2+2KCl+8H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

16 moles of hydrochloric acid reacts with 2 moles of potassium permanganate.

So, 0.27 moles of hydrochloric acid will react with = $\frac{2}{16}\times 0.27=0.033moles$ of potassium permanganate.

As, given amount of potassium permanganate is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hydrochloric acid is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

16 moles of hydrochloric acid reacts with 5 moles of chlorine gas.

So, 0.27 moles of hydrochloric acid will react with = $\frac{5}{16}\times 0.27=0.0843moles$ of chlorine gas.

To calculate the volume of gas, we use the equation given by ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 1.05 atm

V = Volume of gas = ? L

n = Number of moles = 0.0843 mol

R = Gas constant = $0.0820\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature of the gas = $40^oC=[40+273]K=313K$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.05atm\times V=0.0843\times 0.0820\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 313K\\\\V=2.06L$

Hence, the volume of chlorine gas produced in the reaction is 2.06 L.
