Answer: B) Wood Shavings

Reason/Explanation:
Notice what options A, C, and D have on common. Ice, salt and sugar. Those are all dissolvable. Insoluble means un-able to dissolve. It can't dissolve. Wood shavings can't dissolve in water. They will just float. Sugar, salt and ice will all dissolve. Wood shavings won't.

What is the ph of the benzoic acid solution prior to adding sodium benzoate?
Reika [66]
The acid dissociation constant of benzoic acid is 6.5 x 10^-5. Therefore, the pH of the benzoic acid solution prior to adding sodium benzoate is:

pH = -log[Ka]
pH = -log (6.5 x 10^-5)
pH = 4.19

The pH of the benzoic acid solution is 4.19 which is acidic, but a weak acid.

The following reaction shows the products when sulfuric acid and aluminum hydroxide react.
Elden [556K]

The correct answer is approximately 11.73 grams of sulfuric acid.

The theoretical yield of water from Al(OH)3 is lower than that of H₂SO₄. As a consequence, Al(OH)3 is the limiting reactant, H₂SO₄ is in excess.

The balanced equation is:

2Al(OH)₃ + 3H₂SO₄ ⇒ Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6H₂O

Each mole of Al(OH)3 corresponds to 3/2 moles of H₂SO₄. The molecular mass of Al(OH)3 is 78.003 g/mol. There are 15/78.003 = 0.19230 moles of Al(OH)3 in the five grams of Al(OH)3 available. Al(OH)3 is in limiting, which means that all 0.19230 moles will be consumed. Accordingly, 0.19230 × 3/2 = 0.28845 moles of H₂SO₄ will be consumed.

The molar mass of H₂SO₄ is 98.706 g/mol. The mass of 0.28845 moles of H₂SO₄ is 0.28845 × 98.706 = 28.289 g

40 grams of sulfuric acid is available, out of which 28.289 grams is consumed. The remaining 40-28.289 = 11.711 g is in excess, which is closest to the first option, that is, 11.73 grams of H₂SO₄.
