How is the scientific meaning of salt different from the common meaning of salt

1 answer:

7 0

The scientific meaning of salt is an ionic compound that is formed when an acid and a base reaction take place and is neutralized.
The common meaning of salt (table salt) is specifically the organic mineral of sodium chloride (NaCl) and is digestible.
Ionic salts are often not digestible (or not commonly digested, anyway)

Answer:

Here's what I get

Explanation:

Assume the initial concentrations of H₂ and I₂ are 0.030 and 0.015 mol·L⁻¹, respectively.

We must calculate the initial concentration of HI.

1. We will need a chemical equation with concentrations, so let's gather all the information in one place.

H₂ + I₂ ⇌ 2HI

I/mol·L⁻¹: 0.30 0.15 x

2. Calculate the concentration of HI

$Q_{\text{c}} = \dfrac{\text{[HI]}^{2}} {\text{[H$_{2}$][I$_{2}$]}} =\dfrac{x^{2}}{0.30 \times 0.15} = 5.56\\\\x^{2} = 0.30 \times 0.15 \times 5.56 = 0.250\\x = \sqrt{0.250} = \textbf{0.50 mol/L}\\\text{The initial concentration of HI is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.50 mol/L}}$}$
