Answer:
Products have a lower total Gibbs free energy in comparison with the reagents total Gibbs free energy.
Explanation:
Hello,
Exergonic chemical reactions are those that the overall Gibbs free energy is negative, it means that the products have a lower total Gibbs free energy, turning out into a spontaneous chemical reaction. Such reactions are thermodynamically possible under standard conditions and they usually release heat.
Best regards.
Answer:
pH = 11.95≈12
Explanation:
Remember the reaction among aqueous acetic acid (
) and aqueous sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
First step. Need to know how much moles of the substances are present
![0.1 \frac{mol NaOH}{L} * 0.030 L = 0.003 mol NaOH[tex]0.1 \frac{mol CH_3COOH}{L} * 0.025 L= 0.0025 mol CH_3COOHSecond step. Know wich substance is in excess.0.0025 mol CH_3COOH * [tex]1 mol NaOH/ 1 mol CH_3COOH](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=0.1%20%5Cfrac%7Bmol%20NaOH%7D%7BL%7D%20%2A%200.030%20L%20%3D%200.003%20mol%20NaOH%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%5Btex%5D0.1%20%5Cfrac%7Bmol%20CH_3COOH%7D%7BL%7D%20%2A%200.025%20L%3D%200.0025%20mol%20CH_3COOH%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3ESecond%20step.%20Know%20wich%20substance%20is%20in%20excess.%3C%2Fp%3E%3Cp%3E0.0025%20mol%20CH_3COOH%20%2A%20%5Btex%5D1%20mol%20NaOH%2F%201%20mol%20CH_3COOH)
= 0.0025 mol NaOH
0.003 mol NaOH * 
/ 1 mol NaOH = 0.003 mol CH_3COOH[/tex]
NaOH is in excess. Now, how much?
0.003 mole NaOH - 0.0025 mole NaOH = 0.0005 mole NaOH
Then, that amount in excess would be responsable for the pH.
Third step. Know the pH
Remember that pH= -log[H+]
According to the dissociation of water equilibrium
Kw=[H+]*[OH-]= 10^(-14)
The dissociation of NaOH is
NaOH -> 
Now, concentration of OH^{-}[/tex] would be given for the excess of NaOH.
[OH-]= 0.0005 mole / 0.055 L = 0.00909 M
Careful: we have to use the total volumen
Les us to calculate pH
![pH= -log [H+]\\pH= -log \frac{K_w}{[OH-]} \\pH= 11.95](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=pH%3D%20-log%20%5BH%2B%5D%5C%5CpH%3D%20-log%20%5Cfrac%7BK_w%7D%7B%5BOH-%5D%7D%20%5C%5CpH%3D%2011.95)
Answer:
a)there would be no reaction
Explanation:
The activity series of metals has many functions. The one applicable to this problem is that it can be used to determine whether a reaction will occur or not. Also, based on the positions of metals in the series, we can know how reactive a metal is compared to another.
In a single displacement reaction, a metal replaces another metal based on their position on the activity series. Metals that are higher in the series are generally more reactive than others below them and so will displace them.
Would aluminum replace magnesium to form a new compound or would there be no reaction?
Magnesium is higher than aluminum in the activity series. Therefore it is more reactive than aluminum. No reaction will occur.
Answer:
Double replacement reaction
Explanation:
This is what is known as a double replacement reaction. The two parts of each molecule separate and recombine to form two new compounds. For instance, 
separates into 
and 
, while 
separates into 
and 
, and then they recombine with the other compound.
Hope this helps!
