Sodium hydrogen carbonate NaHCO3 , also known as sodium bicarbonate or "baking soda", can be used to relieve acid indigestion. A

cid indigestion is the burning sensation you get in your stomach when it contains too much hydrochloric acid HCl , which the stomach secretes to help digest food. Drinking a glass of water containing dissolved NaHCO3 neutralizes excess HCl through this reaction: HCl (aq) + NaHCO3 (aq) → NaCl (aq) + H2O (l) + CO2 (g) The CO2 gas produced is what makes you burp after drinking the solution. Suppose the fluid in the stomach of a man suffering from indigestion can be considered to be 200.mL of a 0.035 M HCl solution. What mass of NaHCO3 would he need to ingest to neutralize this much HCl ? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

<em>The mass of NaHCO₃ that the man would need to ingest to neutralize this much HCl is 0.059 g.</em>

<em />

Explanation:

1) <u>Chemical equation (given)</u>:

  • HCl (aq) + NaHCO₃ (aq) → NaCl (aq) + H₂O (l) + CO₂ (g)

Both sides have the same number of atoms of each element:

Element       Let side      Right side

H                  1 + 1 = 2       1 × 2 = 2

Cl                 1                   1

Na                1                   1

C                  1                   1

O                 3                   1 + 2 = 3

Hence, the equation is balanced.

2. <u>Mole ratios:</u>

<u />

  • 1 mol HCl  : 1 mol NaHCO₃ : 1 mol NaCl : 1 mol H₂O : 1 mol CO₂

2)<u> Determine the number of moles of HCl in solution</u>:

  • M = n / V (liters) ⇒ n = M × V (liters)
  • V (liters) = 200.mL (1 liter / 1000 mL) = 0.200 liter
  • n = 0.035 M  × 0.200 liter = 0.00070 mol of HCl

3) <u>Set a proportion with the stoichiometric ratio and the actual ratio</u>:

  • 1 mol NaHCO₃ / 1 mol HCl = x / 00070 mol HCl

        ⇒ x = 0.00070 mol NaHCO₃

4.<u> Convert 0.0070 mol NaHCO₃ to grams</u>:

  • Mass in grams = molecular mass × number of moles
  • molecular mass NaHCO₃ = 84.007 g/mol
  • Mass of NaHCO₃ = 84.007 g/mol × 0.00070 mol = 0.0588 g ≈ 0.059 g

The answer has two significant digits because the molarity (0.035 M) is reported with two signficant digits.

What is Avogadro's number, and why is it useful? (3 points)
SashulF [63]

Answer:

6.022 x 10²³; it is a conversion factor between moles and number of particles

Explanation:

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

1.008 g of hydrogen = 1 mole of hydrogen  = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of hydrogen

238 g of uranium = 1 mole of uranium = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms of uranium

By taking ions:

62 g of NO⁻₃ =  1 mole of  NO⁻₃  = 6.022 × 10²³ ions of  NO⁻₃

96 g of SO₄²⁻ = 1 mole of SO₄²⁻ =  6.022 × 10²³ ions of  SO₄²⁻

Which statements correctly describe atmospheric pressure?
Shalnov [3]

Answers are:

2. It pushes on all objects that are on Earth’s surface.

3. It can be measured in atmospheres or kilopascals.

Barometric pressure (atmospheric pressure), is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth

Atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing height, because there are fewer air molecules above a given object.

Barometer is an instrument used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure.

Atmospheric pressure (atm) is the force per unit area by the weight of air above that point.  

Kilopascal (kPa) is a metric system pressure unit and equals to 1000 force of newton per square meter.

Atmospheric pressure results from molecular collisions of atmospheric gases.
