Reaction of sodium with water

Sodium metal reacts rapidly with water to form a colourless solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrogen gas (H2). The resulting solution is basic because of the dissolved hydroxide. The reaction is exothermic. During the reaction, the sodium metal may well become so hot that it catches fire and burns with a characteristic orange colour. The reaction is slower than that of potassium (immediately below sodium in the periodic table), but faster than that of lithium (immediately above sodium in the periodic table).

2Na(s) + 2H2O → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)

A chemist wants to make 6.5 L of a 0.340 M CaCl2 solution. Part A What mass of CaCl2 (in g) should the chemist use? Express your
katovenus [111]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 245 grams

Explanation:

Data

Volume 6.5 L

Molarity = 0.34

mass of CaCl₂ = ?

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of CaCl₂

molar mass = (1 x 40) + (2 x 35.5)

                   = 40 + 71

                   = 111 g

2.- Convert the grams to moles

                       111 g of CaCl₂ -------------- 1 mol

                         x                   ---------------0.34 mol

                         x = (0.34 x 111) / 1

                         x = 37.74 g

3.- Calculate the total mass

                        37.74 g ------------------ 1 L

                            x        ------------------ 6.5 L

                            x = (6.5 x 37.74) / 1

                            x = 245.31

A balloon contains 0.140 molmol of gas and has a volume of 2.78 LL . If an additional 0.152 molmol of gas is added to the balloo
levacccp [35]

Answer:

The final volume will be 5.80 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles gas = 0.140 moles

Volume of gas = 2.78 L

Number of moles added = 0.152 moles

Step 2: Calculate the final volume

V1/n1 = V2/n2

⇒ with V1 = the initial volume = 2.78 L

⇒ with n1 = the initial number of moles = 0.140 moles

⇒ with  V2 = The new volume = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with n2 = the new number of moles = 0.140 + 0.152 = 0.292 moles

2.78/0.140 = V2 /0.292

V2 = 5.80 L

The final volume will be 5.80 L
