0.023 M solution of perchloric acid
kogti [31]
The original question is to find the pH and the pOH of 0.023 M of perchloric acid.

Answer:
pH = 1.638
pOH = 12.362

Explanation:
1- getting the pH:
pH can be calculated using the following rule:
pH = -log[H+]
Since the given solution is an acid, this means that [H+] is the same as the concentration of the solution.
This means that:
[H+] = 0.023
Substitute in the above equation to get the pH as follows:
pH = -log[0.023]
pH = 1.638

2- getting the pOH:
We know that:
pH + pOH = 14
We have calculated that pH = 1.638.
Substitute in the above equation to get the pOH as follows:
pOH + 1.638 = 14
pOH = 14 - 1.638
pOH = 12.362

Hope this helps :)

How many moles of oxygen are formed when 58.6 g of KNO3 decomposes according to the following reaction? 4 KNO3(s) → 2 K2O(s) + 2
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

0.725 mol

Explanation:

Moles are calculated as the given mass divided by the molecular mass.

i.e. ,

moles = ( mass / molecular mass )

since,

mass of KNO₃ = 58.6 g  ( given )

Molecular mass of KNO₃ = 101 g / mol

Therefore,

moles of KNO₃ = 58.6 g / 101 g / mol

moles of KNO₃ = 0.58 mol

From the balanced reaction ,

4 KNO₃ (s) ---> 2K₂O (s) + 2N₂ (g) + 5O₂ (g)

By the decomposition of 4 mol of KNO₃ , 5 mol of O₂ are formed ,

hence, unitary method is used as,

1  mol of KNO₃  gives 5 / 4 mol O₂

Therefore,

0.58 mol of KNO₃ , gives , 5 / 4  * 0.58 mol of O₂

Solving,

0.58 mol of KNO₃ , gives , 0.725 mol of O₂

Therefore,

58.6g of KNO₃ gives 0.725 mol of O₂.

A gaseous mixture contains 434.0 Torr H 2 ( g ) , 434.0 Torr H2(g), 389.9 Torr N 2 ( g ) , 389.9 Torr N2(g), and 77.9 Torr Ar (
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

H₂: 0.48,  N₂: 0.43;  Ar: 0.09

Explanation:

First of all, sum all the pressures to know the total pressure in the mixture.

434 Torr + 389.9 Torr + 77.9 Torr = 901.8 Torr

Mole fraction = Pressure gas / Total Pressure

Mole Fraction H₂: 434 Torr /901.8 Torr = 0.48

Mole Fraction N₂: 389.9 /901.8 Torr =0.43

Mole Fraction Ar:  77.9 /901.8 Torr = 0.09

Remember: <u>SUM OF MOLE FRACTION = 1</u>
