Explanation:
Whenever we need to make a dilute solution of an acid then it is necessary to add water or non-acidic component into the acid first. This is because addition of water or non-acidic component directly into the acid could be highly exothermic in nature.
As a result, the acid can splutter and can cause burning of skin and other serious damage.
So, in order to avoid such type of damage the addition of water or non-acidic component into the acid actually helps to minimize the heat generated.
Thus, we can conclude that correct order of steps for making a more dilute solution of an acid is that either add all of the water or non-acid component first, or add a significant portion, before adding the acid to the mixture.
The final temperature of the mixture : 21.1° C
<h3>Further explanation </h3>
The law of conservation of energy can be applied to heat changes, i.e. the heat received / absorbed is the same as the heat released
Q in(gained) = Q out(lost)
Heat can be calculated using the formula:
Q = mc∆T
Q = heat, J
m = mass, g
c = specific heat, joules / g ° C
∆T = temperature difference, ° C / K
Q ethanol=Q water
mass ethanol=
mass water =
then the heat transfer :
Answer:
- Volume = <u>2.0 liter</u> of 1.5 M solution of KOH
Explanation:
<u>1) Data:</u>
a) Solution: KOH
b) M = 1.5 M
c) n = 3.0 mol
d) V = ?
<u>2) Formula:</u>
Molarity is a unit of concentration, defined as number of moles of solute per liter of solution:
<u>3) Calculations:</u>
- Solve for n: M = n / V ⇒ V = n / M
- Substitute values: V = 3.0 mol / 1.5 M = 2.0 liter
You must use 2 significant figures in your answer: <u>2.0 liter.</u>
3.44x10^2
you move the decimal over to get a single digit number with change. The number of times you move the decimal is the number for the 10 power
