Answer:

[H₃O⁺] = 1.4 × 10⁻⁹ M.

Explanation:

NH₄Cl is a salt that dissolves well in water. The 2.5 M NH₄Cl will give an initial NH₄⁺ concentration of 2.5 M.

NH₃ is a weak base. It combines with water to produce NH₄⁺ and OH⁻. The opposite process can also take place. NH₄⁺ combines with OH⁻ to produce NH₃ and H₂O. The final H₃O⁺ concentration can be found from the OH⁻ concentration. What will be the final OH⁻ concentration?

Let the increase in OH⁻ concentration be x. The initial OH⁻ concentration at room temperature is 10⁻⁷ M.

Construct a RICE table for the equilibrium between NH₃ and NH₄⁺:

\begin{array}{c|ccccccc}\text{R}&\text{NH}_3 &+&\text{H}_2\text{O}&\rightleftharpoons &{\text{NH}_4}^{+}&+&\text{OH}^{-}\\\text{I}&1.0&&&&2.5&&1.0\times 10^{-7}\\\text{C}& -x &&&& +x &&+x\\\text{E} &1.0 - x &&&&2.5+x&&1.0\times 10^{-7}+x\end{array}.

The \text{K}_b value for ammonia is small. The value of x will be so small that at equilibrium, 1.0 - x \approx 1.0 and 2.5- x \approx 2.5.

\displaystyle \text{K}_b = \frac{[{\text{NH}_4}^{+}]\cdot [{\text{OH}}^{-}]}{[\text{NH}_3]} \approx \frac{2.5\;(x + 1.0\times 10^{-7})}{1.0}.

\displaystyle \frac{2.5\;(x + 1.0\times 10^{-7})}{1.0} = 1.8\times 10^{-5}.

\displaystyle [\text{OH}^{-}] = x+1.0\times 10^{-7} = 1.8\times 10^{-5} /\left(\frac{2.5}{1.0}\right) = 7.2\times 10^{-6}\;\text{mol}\cdot\text{L}^{-}.

Again, \text{K}_w = 1.0\times 10^{-14} at room temperature.

\displaystyle [\text{H}_3\text{O}^{+}] = \frac{\text{K}_w}{[\text{OH}^{-}]}=\frac{1.0\times 10^{-14}}{7.2\times 10^{-6}} = 1.4\times 10^{-9} \;\text{mol}\cdot\text{L}^{-1}

Fluorine gas reacts with aqueous iron (II) iodine to produce iron (II) fluoride and iodine liquid What is the balanced chemical
Andru [333]

Answer:

F₂ (g) + FeI₂ (aq) →  FeF₂ (aq) +  I₂ (l)

Explanation:

Our reactants are:

F₂ → Fluorine gas, a dyatomic molecule

FeI₂ → Iron (II) iodine

Our products are:

I₂ → Iodine

FeF₂ → Iron (II) fluoride

Then, the reaction is:

F₂ (g) + FeI₂ (aq) →  FeF₂ (aq) +  I₂ (l)

We see it is completely balanced.

Describe polar covalent bonds using water as an example
Dahasolnce [82]
<span>A covalent bond is a bond formed by atom sharing.
In water molecule, there are twice the number of hydrogen atoms than the oxygen atoms. Its structure is H-O-H. The electronegative difference between the H and O allows them to be polar because on side there is positive charge and on another side there is negative charge.</span>
