Answer:

245.66g of NH₄Cl is the mass we need to add to obtain the desire pH

Explanation:

The mixture of NH3/NH4Cl produce a buffer. We can find the pH of a buffer using H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [A⁻] / [HA]

<em>Where [A⁻] is the molar concentration of the base, NH₃, and [HA] molar concentration of the acid, NH₄⁺. This molar concentration can be taken as the moles of each chemical</em>

<em />

First, we need to find pKa of NH₃ using Kb. Then, the moles of NH₃ and finally replace these values in H-H equation to solve moles of NH₄Cl we need to obtain the desire pH.

  • <em>pKa NH₃/NH₄⁺</em>

pKb = - log Kb

pKb = -log 1.8x10⁻⁵ = <em>4.74</em>

pKa = 14 - pKb

pKa = 14 - 4.74

pKa = 9.26

  • <em>Moles NH₃</em>

<em>2.00L ₓ (0.200mol NH₃ / L) = 0.400 moles NH₃</em>

  • <em>H-H equation:</em>

pH = pKa + log [NH₃] / [NH₄Cl]

8.20 = 9.26 + log [0.400 moles] / [NH₄Cl]

-1.06 =  log [0.400 moles] / [NH₄Cl]

0.0087 =  [0.400 moles] / [NH₄Cl]

[NH₄Cl] = 0.400 moles / 0.0087

[NH₄Cl] = 4.59 moles of NH₄Cl we need to add to original solution to obtain a pH of 8.20. In grams (Using molar mass NH₄Cl=53.491g/mol):

4.59 moles NH₄Cl ₓ (53.491g / mol) =

<h3>245.66g of NH₄Cl is the mass we need to add to obtain the desire pH</h3>

There is a mixture of three gases. We know the total pressure is 2.50 atmosphere and the pressure of the oxygen and the nitrogen
Viktor [21]

Answer:

1.14 atm and 1.139 mol

Explanation:

The <em>total pressure</em> of the container is equal to the <u>sum of the partial pressure of the three gasses</u>:

  • P = Poxygen + Pnitrogen + Pcarbon dioxide
  • 2.50 atm = 0.52 + 0.84 + Pcarbon dioxide

Now we <u>solve for the pressure of carbon dioxide</u>:

  • Pcarbon dioxide = 1.14 atm

To c<u>alculate the number of CO₂ moles </u>we use <em>PV=nRT</em>:

  • P = 1.14 atm
  • V = 25.0 L
  • n = ?
  • R = 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹
  • T = 32 °C ⇒ 32 + 273.16 = 305.16 K

1.14 atm * 25.0 L = n * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 305.16 K

  • n = 1.139 mol

The ionization energies of Calcium are (in KJ/mol): 1st: 589.8 2nd: 1145.4 3rd: 4912.4
defon

Answer:

See whole explanation to understand

Explanation:

the reason why there is such a large jump from 2nd to 3rd ionization energy for calcium is because to remove the third electron, a larger amount of energy is required, since the shell is closer to the nucleus, and higher attraction exists between them. This is why the second ionization energy is 1125.4 and then the third IE is 4912.4 which is a very big difference. It's all about the elections and energy!!

Some antacid tables contain aluminum hydroxide. The aluminum hydroxide reacts with stomach acid according to the equation: Al(OH
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

26.67 mol HCl

Explanation:

Al(OH)₃ + 3HCl → AlCl₃ + 3H₂O

In order to solve this problem, we need to c<u>onvert Al(OH)₃ moles to HCl moles</u>.

To do so we use the<em> stoichiometric ratios</em> of the balanced reaction:

  • 8.89 mol Al(OH)₃ * \frac{3molHCl}{1molAl(OH)_{3}} = 26.67 mol HCl

Thus 26.67 moles of HCl would react completely with 8.89 moles of Al(OH)₃.
