Answer : The mass of potassium hypochlorite is, 4.1 grams.

Explanation : Given,

pH = 10.20

Volume of water = 4.50\times 10^2ml=0.45L

The decomposition of KClO  will be :

KClO\rightarrow K^++ClO^-

Now the further reaction with water (H_2O) to give,

ClO^-+H_2O\rightarrow HClO+OH^-

First we have to calculate the pOH.

pH+pOH=14\\\\pOH=14-pH\\\\pOH=14-10.20=3.8

Now we have to calculate the OH^- concentration.

pOH=-\log [OH^-]

3.8=-\log [OH^-]

[OH^-]=1.58\times 10^{-4}M

Now we have to calculate the base dissociation constant.

Formula used : K_b=\frac{K_w}{K_a}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get :

K_b=\frac{1.0\times 10^{-14}}{4.0\times 10^{-8}}=2.5\times 10^{-7}

Now we have to calculate the concentration of ClO^-.

The equilibrium constant expression of the reaction  is:

K_b=\frac{[OH^-][HClO]}{[ClO^-]}

As we know that, [OH^-]=[HClO]=1.58\times 10^{-4}M

2.5\times 10^{-7}=\frac{(1.58\times 10^{-4})^2}{[ClO^-]}

[ClO^-]=0.0999M

Now we have to calculate the moles of ClO^-.

\text{Moles of }ClO^-=\text{Molarity of }ClO^-\times \text{Volume of solution}

\text{Moles of }ClO^-=0.0999mole/L\times 0.45L=0.0449mole

As we know that, the number of moles of ClO^- are equal to the number of moles of KClO.

So, the number of moles of KClO = 0.0449 mole

Now we have to calculate the mass of KClO.

\text{Mass of }KClO=\text{Moles of }KClO\times \text{Molar mass of }KClO

\text{Mass of }KClO=0.0449mole\times 90.6g/mole=4.07g\approx 4.1g

Therefore, the mass of potassium hypochlorite is, 4.1 grams.

Ne4ueva [31]

Answer : The total mass of carbon dioxide and water produced will be, 65.7 grams.

Explanation :

Law of conservation of mass : It states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

This also means that total mass on the reactant side must be equal to the total mass on the product side.

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2\rightarrow 6CO_2+6H_2O

According to the law of conservation of mass,

Total mass of reactant side = Total mass of product side

Total mass of C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2 = Total mass of 6CO_2+6H_2O

As we are given :

Total mass of C_6H_{12}O_6+6O_2 = 65.7 grams

So,

65.7 grams = Total mass of 6CO_2+6H_2O

Therefore, the total mass of carbon dioxide and water produced will be, 65.7 grams.
