Maurinko [17]2 years ago

Answer:

Theoretical yield = 2.5 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of sodium = 79.7 g

Mass of water = 45.3 g

Theoretical yield of hydrogen gas = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂

Number of moles of sodium:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 79.7 g / 23 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.5 mol

Number of moles of water:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 45.3 g / 18g/mol

Number of moles = 2.5 mol

Now we will compare the moles of hydrogen gas with water and sodium.

                        H₂O           :             H₂

                           2             :              1

                          2.5           :            1/2×2.5 =1.25 mol

                     

                           Na           :              H₂

                             2            :               1

                           3.5           :             1/2×3.5 =1.75 mol

water will be limiting reactant.

Theoretical yield:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass =  1.25 mol  × 2 g/mol

Mass = 2.5 g

A sample of gas occupies 300 mL at 100K. What is its volume when the
iris [78.8K]

If the temperature of the sample of gas increases to the given value, the volume also increases to 600mL.

<h3>What is Charles's law?</h3>

Charles's law states that "the volume occupied by a definite quantity of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature.

It is expressed as;

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

Given the data in the question;

  • Initial temperature of gas T₁ = 100K
  • Initial volume of gas V₁ = 300mL
  • Final temperature T₂ = 200K
  • Final volume V₂ = ?

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₂ = V₁T₂ / T₁

V₂ = ( 300mL × 200K ) / 100K

V₂ = 60000mLK / 100K

V₂ = 600mL

Therefore, if the temperature of the sample of gas increases to the given value, the volume also increases to 600mL.

A 100.0 mL solution containing 0.864 g of maleic acid (MW=116.072 g/mol) is titrated with 0.276 M KOH. Calculate the pH of the s
Lilit [14]

Answer:

pH = 1.32

Explanation:

                 H₂M + KOH ------------------------ HM⁻ + H₂O + K⁺

This problem involves a weak diprotic acid which we can solve by realizing they amount  to buffer solutions.  In the first  deprotonation if all the acid is not consumed we will have an equilibrium of a wak acid and its weak conjugate base. Lets see:

So first calculate the moles reacted and produced:

n H₂M = 0.864 g/mol x 1 mol/ 116.072 g  =  0.074 mol H₂M

54 mL x  1L / 1000 mL x 0. 0.276 moles/L = 0.015 mol KOH

it is clear that the maleic acid will not be completely consumed, hence treat it as an equilibrium problem of a buffer solution.

moles H₂M left = 0.074 - 0.015 = 0.059

moles HM⁻ produced = 0.015

Using the Henderson - Hasselbach equation to solve for pH:

ph = pKₐ + log ( HM⁻/ HA) = 1.92 + log ( 0.015 / 0.059) = 1.325

Notes: In the HH equation we used the moles of the species since the volume is the same and they will cancel out in the quotient.

For polyprotic acids the second or third deprotonation contribution to the pH when there is still unreacted acid ( Maleic in this case) unreacted.
