A specific state which is defined being a property without the path taken to achieve that state based on it, is understood as a state function.
While the functions whose value is based on the direction taken among two states are named direction or path functions, on the other hand.
The system's thermodynamic condition relates to the current material in temperature, pressure and quantity.
State functions rely only on certain requirements and not on how they have been achieved. State functions for an instance, involve entropy, density, enthalpy and internal energy.
They are known as state functions as they quantitatively define a thermodynamic system's equilibrium condition, regardless of how the system landed in that condition.

Calculate the maximum volume (in mL) of 0.143 M HCl that each of the following antacid formulations would be expected to neutral

Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

a. The maximum volume of 0.143 M HCl required is 154.4 mL.

b. The maximum volume of 0.143 M HCl required is 135.7 mL.

Explanation:

$Al(OH)_3+3HCl\rightarrow AlCl_3+3H_2O$

Mass of aluminum hydroxide = 350 mg = 0.350 g ( 1mg = 0.001 g)

Moles of aluminum hydroxide = $\frac{0.350 g}{78 g/mol}=0.004487 mol$

According to reaction ,3 moles of HCl neutralize 1 mole of aluminum hydroxide.Then 0.004487 mole of aluminum hydroxide will be neutralize by :

$\frac{3}{1}\times 0.004487 mol=0.01346 mol$ of HCl.

$Mg(OH)_2+2HCl\rightarrow MgCL_2+2H_2O$

Mass of magnesium hydroxide = 250 mg = 0.250 g ( 1mg = 0.001 g)

Moles of magnesium hydroxide = $\frac{0.250 g}{58 g/mol}=0.004310 mol$

According to reaction ,2 moles of HCl neutralize 1 mole of magnesium hydroxide.Then 0.004310 mole of magnesium hydroxide will be neutralize by :

$\frac{2}{1}\times 0.004310 mol=0.008621 mol$ of HCl.

Total moles of HCl required to neutralize both :

0.01346 mol + 0.008621 mol = 0.02208 mol

Molarity of the HCL solution = 0.143 M

Volume of the solution = V

$Molarity=\frac{\text{Total moles of HCl}{\text{Volume in Liter}}$

$V=\frac{0.02208 mol}{0.143 M}=0.1544 L$

1 L = 1000 mL

0.1544 L = 154.4 mL

The maximum volume of 0.143 M HCl required is 154.4 mL.

$CaCO_3+2HCl\rightarrow CaCl_2+H_2O+CO_2$

Mass of calcium carbonate = 970mg = 0.970 g ( 1mg = 0.001 g)

Moles of calcium carbonate = $\frac{0.970 g}{100 g/mol}=0.00970 mol$

According to reaction ,2 moles of HCl neutralize 1 mole of calcium carbonate.Then 0.00970 mole of calcium carbonate will be neutralize by :

$\frac{2}{1}\times 0.00970 mol=0.0194 mol$ of HCl.

Total moles of HCl required to neutralize calcium carbonate : 0.0194 mol

Molarity of the HCL solution = 0.143 M

Volume of the solution = V

$Molarity=\frac{\text{Total moles of HCl}}{\text{Volume in Liter}}$

$V=\frac{0.0194 mol}{0.143 M}=0.1357 L$

1 L = 1000 mL

0.1357 L = 135.7 mL

The maximum volume of 0.143 M HCl required is 135.7 mL.

Problem Page Suppose 25.1g of barium nitrate is dissolved in 200.mL of a 0.50 M aqueous solution of ammonium sulfate. Calculate

melomori [17]

Answer:

1.26 M

Explanation:

The ion nitrate is NO₃⁻ and the Barium is from group 2 so it forms the ion Ba²⁺, so the barium nitrate has the formula: Ba(NO₃)₂. The molar masses are: Ba: 137 g/mol, N = 14 g/mol, O = 16 g/mol, so the molar mass of barium nitrate is:

137 + 2x(14 + 3x16) = 199 g/mol

The number of moles is the mass divided by the molar mass, so:

n = 25.1/199 = 0.126 mol of Ba(NO₃)₂

In 1 mol of the salt, there are 2 moles of NO₃⁻, so the number of moles of nitrate is 0.252 mol. Nitrates formed with ammonium (that can react when the solid dissolves) and with elements from group 1 and 2 are completely soluble in water. So, the moles of nitrate will remain 0.252 mol.

The molarity is the number of moles divided by the volume (0.2 L):

[NO₃⁻]= 0.252/0.2 = 1.26 M

The molecular formula HOH is an example of a(n)

vodka [1.7K]

Molecule

Explanation:

The molecular formula HOH is an example of a molecule.

A molecule is the smallest particle of a substance (element or compound) capable of independent existence.

Molecules can be:

Monoatomic with one atom e.g Neon, Argon
Diatomic with two atoms e.g Nitrogen gas N₂
Polyatomic e.g ozone O₃

The word molecule can also be used to refer to a covalent compound that has discrete or separate units.

The formula HOH or H₂O is a separate covalent that has an independent existence.
