Give two possible reasons why using tap water instead of distilled water could give misleading

Chemistry
1 answer:
hodyreva [135]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Public tap water is not desirable when carrying out experiments in the laboratory.

The chemical definition of water is a compound made up of two atoms of hydrogen to 1 atom of oxygen. Any violation simply desist from the true meaning of water.

Why are tap water not used:

  • They contain other dissolved ions like chlorine which have been added in their treatment. This alters the fundamental molecules that is expected to be seen in water. Water of this nature can affect experimental results seriously.
  • Tap water can become a mixture instead of a simple compound. A mixture is a combination of several compounds. Such water will have a varied composition and make simplification of experiments very difficult.

What mass in grams of SO2 is needed to react with 37.50 mol of Oz?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

4804.5 g of SO₂ are needed to the reaction

Explanation:

The reaction to produce sulfuric acid is:

2SO₂ + O₂ + 2H₂O →  2H₂SO₄

Ratio is 1:2. 1 mol of oxygen needs 2 moles of sulfur dioxide in order to react. We can propose this rule of three.

If 1 mol of O₂ react to 2 moles of SO₂

Then, 37.50 moles of O₂ will react with (37.5 . 2) /1 = 75 moles of SO₂

We convert the moles to mass, to know the answer:

75 mol . 64.06 g / 1 mol = 4804.5 g of SO₂

Answer:

Theoretical yield of the reaction = 34 g

Excess reactant is hydrogen

Limiting reactant is nitrogen

Explanation:

Given there is 100 g of nitrogen and 100 g of hydrogen

Number of moles of nitrogen = 100 ÷ 28 = 3·57

Number of moles of hydrogen = 100 ÷ 2 = 50

Reaction between nitrogen and hydrogen yields ammonia according to the following chemical equation

N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3

From the above chemical equation for every mole of nitrogen that reacts, 3 moles of hydrogen will be required and 2 moles of ammonia will be formed

Now we have 3·57 moles of nitrogen and therefore we require 3 × 3·57 moles of hydrogen

⇒ We require 10·71 moles of hydrogen

But we have 50 moles of hydrogen

∴ Limiting reactant is nitrogen and excess reactant is hydrogen

From the balanced chemical equation the yield will be 2 × 3·57 moles of ammonia

Molecular weight of ammonia = 17 g

∴ Theoretical yield of the reaction = 2 × 3·57 × 17 = 121·38 g
