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)

What is the molarity of a 2.0L solution that was made up with 4.0 moles of NaCl?
Finger [1]

Answer:

[NaCl]: 2M

Explanation:

This solution is made of NaCl therefore:

Our solute is NaCl

Moles of solute: 4

Our solution's volume is 2L

Molarity are the moles of solute contained in 1L of solution (mol/L)

[NaCl]: 4 mol /2L = 2M

We can also make a rule of three:

In 2 L we have 4 moles of solute

So, In 1 L we must have (1 . 4) /2 = 2 M

What volume (in L) of oxygen will be required to produce 77.4 L of water vapor in the reaction below?
Nostrana [21]

Answer:

For the production of 77.4 L water 90.3 L oxygen is required.

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of oxygen required = ?

Volume of water produced = 77.4 L

Solution:

Chemical reaction equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂  →  4CO₂ + 6H₂O

1 mole = 22.414 L

There are 6 moles of water = 6×22.414 = 134.5 L

There are 7 moles of oxygen = 7×22.414 = 156.9 L

Now we will compare the litters of water and oxygen:

                              H₂O           :              O₂    

                              134.5         :              156.9

                                77.4         :             156.9/134.5×77.4 =90.3 L

So for the production of 77.4 L water 90.3 L oxygen is required.
