Answer:

Weak acid

Explanation:

A titration curve is a graphical description of the change in pH of the solution in the conical flask as the reagent is added from the burette. A titration curve can be plotted for the different kinds of acid and base titrations. The volume of the titrant is always plotted as the independent variable and the pH of the solution as the dependent variable. The equivalence point is read off from the titration curve. A titration curve is very important because it shows the pH at various points during the titration.

A weak acid/strong base titration leads to an equivalence point above 7. From the question, we were told that the pH at equivalence point lies around 8. Hence the unknown substance must be a weak acid.

Mashcka [7]

The yield of aluminium obtained from 1 m^3 of bauxite is 419810 g

<h3>What is a Percent yield</h3>

A percent yield of a substance measures the amount of the substance actually obtained as a percentage ratio of expected yield.

Percent yield = actual yield / expected yield × 100%

<h3>How to calculate the mass of aluminium obtained from bauxite </h3>

From the data given:

40 % of the bauxite is converted to aluminium oxide.

Volume of bauxite = 1 m^3

40 % of 1 m^3 = 0.4 m^3

volume of aluminium oxide = 0.4 m^3

density of aluminium oxide = 3965 kg/m^3

  • Using mass = density × volume

mass of aluminium oxide = 0.4 × 3965 kg

mass of aluminium oxide = 1586 kg

Formula of aluminium oxide is Al203

molar mass of aluminium oxide = 102 g

  • percentage mass of aluminium in one mole of aluminium oxide = mass of aluminium / mass of aluminium oxide × 100 %

Percentage mass of aluminium in aluminium oxide = 54/102 × 100

Percentage mass of aluminium in aluminium oxide = 52.94 %

Expected mass of aluminium from aluminium oxide = 52.94 × 1586

Expected mass of aluminium = 839.62 kg

Actual yield = 40 % × 839.62

Actual yield of aluminium = 419.81 kg

mass of aluminium in grams = 419810 g

Therefore, mass of aluminium obtained from 1 m^3 of bauxite is 419810 g

If the half-life of Carbon-14 is 5700 years, how many years would it take a sample to decay from 1 gram to 31.3 mg
andrew-mc [135]

Answer:

28500 years

Explanation:

Applying,

A = A'(2^{x/y})............... Equation 1

Where A = Original mass of Carbon-14, A' = Final mass of carbon-14 after decaying, x = total time, y = half-life.

From the question,

Given: A = 1 g, A' = 31.3 mg = 0.0313 g, y = 5700 years.

Substitute these values into equation 1

1 = 0.0313(2^{x/5700})

2^{x/5700} = 1/0.0313

2^{x/5700}  = 31.95

2^{x/5700} ≈ 32

2^{x/5700} ≈ 2⁵

Equating the base and solve for x

x/5700 ≈ 5

x ≈ 5×5700

x ≈ 28500 years

Write the overall, balanced molecular equation and indicate which element is oxidized and which is reduced for the following rea
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

Cd(s) + AgNO₃(aq)  → Cd(NO₃)₂ (aq) + Ag(s)

Oxidized: Cd

Reduced: Ag

Explanation:

Cd(s) + AgNO₃(aq)  → Cd(NO₃)₂ (aq) + Ag(s)

Cd → Cd²⁺  +  2e⁻      Half reaction oxidation

1e⁻ + Ag⁺ → Ag           Half reaction reduction

Ag changed oxidation number from +1 to 0

Cd changed oxidation number from 0 to +2

Let's ballance the electrons

( Cd → Cd²⁺  +  2e⁻ ) .1

( 1e⁻ + Ag⁺ → Ag ) .2

Cd + 2e⁻ + 2Ag⁺  → 2Ag +  Cd²⁺  +  2e⁻

Finally the ballance equation is:

Cd(s) + 2AgNO₃(aq)  → Cd(NO₃)₂ (aq) + 2Ag(s)

1. A mixture contains 8.00 g each of O2, CO2, and SO2 at STP. Calculate the volume of this mixture. Which of the gases would exe
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Explanation:

mole of O₂ = \frac{8}{32}

= .25 moles

mole of CO₂

= \frac{8}{44}

= .1818 moles

moles of SO₂

\frac{8}{64}

= .125 moles

Total moles of gas

= .5568 moles.

total volume of gas mixture

= 22.4 x .5568 liter ( volume of one mole of any gas = 22.4 liter)

= 12.47 liter.

gas will exert partial pressure according to their mole fraction

gas having greatest no of moles in the total mole will have greatest mole fraction so

O₂ will have greatest partial pressure.
