What happens when hydrochloric acid is added to pure water?

1 answer:

7 0

Broken Molecules, Free Ions. When an acid is added to water, the molecules of theacid separate into individual ions. ... This leads to an increased concentration of hydrogen ions and thus to a lower pH. Hydrochloric acid is classified as a "strong"acid, which means that virtually all of the molecules disassociate.

Question 1 (Matching Worth 3 points)

Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

Question 1: 1) Increasing the pressure C) Shift to the right

2) Removing hydrogen gas A) Shift to the left

3) Adding a catalyst B) No effect

Question 2: This reaction is exothermic because the system shifted to the right on cooling.

Question 3: Shift it toward the reactants.

Question 4: Adding more of gas C to the system.

Question 5: It will shift toward the reactant side because the reactant side has one more mole of gas than the product side.

Question 6: True.

Question 7: there is no suitable choice is provided.

We can shift the equilibrium toward the right via:

Increasing N2O3 concentration,

decreasing NO and/or NO2 concentration,

decreasing the pressure,

lowering the T (cooling the system).

Explanation:

Question 1: Match the action to the effect on the equilibrium position for the reaction N2(g) + 3H2(g) ⇌ 2NH3(g).

Match Term Definition

Removing ammonia A) No effect

Removing hydrogen gas B) Shift to the left

Adding a catalyst C) Shift to the right

Le Châtelier's principle states that when there is an dynamic equilibrium, and this equilibrium is disturbed by an external factor, the equilibrium will be shifted in the direction that can cancel the effect of the external factor to reattain the equilibrium.

1) Increasing the pressure:

When there is an increase in pressure, the equilibrium will shift towards the side with fewer moles of gas of the reaction. And when there is a decrease in pressure, the equilibrium will shift towards the side with more moles of gas of the reaction.

The reactants side (left) has 4.0 moles of gases and the products side (right) has 2.0 moles of gases.

So, increasing the pressure will shift the reaction to the side with lower moles of gas (right side).

so, the right match is: C) Shift to the right.

2) Removing hydrogen gas:

Removing hydrogen gas will decrease the concentration of the products side, so the reaction will be shifted to the lift side to suppress the decrease in the concentration of hydrogen gas by removing.

so, the right match is: A) Shift to the left.

3) Adding a catalyst:

Catalyst increases the rate of the reaction without affecting the equilibrium position.

Catalyst increases the rate via lowering the activation energy of the reaction.

This can occur via passing the reaction in alternative pathway (changing the mechanism).

The activation energy is the difference in potential energies between the reactants and transition state (for the forward reaction) and it is the difference in potential energies between the products and transition state (for the reverse reaction).

in the presence of a catalyst, the activation energy is lowered by lowering the energy of the transition state, which is the rate-determining step, catalysts reduce the required energy of activation to allow a reaction to proceed and, in the case of a reversible reaction, reach equilibrium more rapidly.

with adding a catalyst, both the forward and reverse reaction rates will speed up equally, which allowing the system to reach equilibrium faster.

so, the right match is: B) No effect.

Question 2: Nitrogen dioxide gas is dark brown in color and remains in equilibrium with dinitrogen tetroxide gas, which is colorless.

2NO2(g) ⇌ N2O4(g)

When the light brown color equilibrium mixture was moved from room temperature to a lower temperature, the mixture turned lighter brown in color. Which of the following conclusions about this equilibrium mixture is true?

Moving from room temperature to a lower temperature, means that the T is decreased.

The mixture turned lighter brown in color, means that the reaction is shifted towards the products side.

Moving towards the product side, means that we decreased the concentration of the product side, which ,means that the heat is evolved from the reaction and the reaction is exothermic.

So, the right choice is: This reaction is exothermic because the system shifted to the right on cooling.

Question 3: According to Le Châtelier's principle, how will a decrease in concentration of a reactant affect the equilibrium system?

A decrease in the reactants concentration will disturb the equilibrium position of the system. To attain the equilibrium again, the system will be shifted to the lift (reactants side) to increases the concentration of the reactants and attain the equilibrium again.

So, the right choice is: Shift it toward the reactants.

How would you prepare 500 mL of 0.360 M solution of CaCl2 from solid CaCl2?

LenKa [72]

We need to measure 20.0 grams of CaCl₂ to prepare 500 mL of 0.360 M solution.

First, we need to determine the required moles of CaCl₂. We have 500 mL (0.500 L) of a 0.360 M solution (0.360 moles of CaCl₂ per liter of solution).

$0.500 L \times \frac{0.360mol}{L} = 0.180 mol$

Then, we will convert 0.180 moles to grams using the molar mass of CaCl₂ (110.98 g/mol).

$0.180 mol \times \frac{110.98g}{mol} = 20.0 g$

To prepare the solution, we weigh 20.0 g of CaCl₂ and add it to a beaker with enough distilled water to dissolve it. We stir it, heat it if necessary, and when we have a solution, we transfer it to a 500 mL flask and complete it to the mark with distilled water.

We need to measure 20.0 grams of CaCl₂ to prepare 500 mL of 0.360 M solution.

How can you tell which compound in a solution is the solvent? (own words please)

Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

The way you can know which compound in a solution is a solvent is by usually just determining which substance is a solute and which is a solvent. The solute is when it is dissolved and it takes on the characteristics of the solvent.

Explanation:

Hope this helps!

000333 g fluorescein (332.32 g/mol) is dissolved in 225 ml solution of ethanol. the density of ethanol is 0.785 g/ml. what is th

andrey2020 [161]

1) Molarity

M = n / V
n: number of moles of solute
V: volume of the solution in liters

n = mass / molar mass = 0.000333 g / 332.32 g / mol = 1*10 ^ - 6 moles

V = 225 ml * 1 liter / 1000 ml = 0.225 liter

M = 10^-6 mol / 0.225 liter = 0.00000444 M

2) ppm

ppm = parts per million

grams of solute: 0.000333 g

grams of solution = volume * density = 225 ml * 0.785 g / ml = 176.625 g

ppm = [0.00033 g / 176.625 g] * 1,000,000 = 1.868 ppm
