Type the correct answer in the box. Express your answer to three significant figures. This balanced equation shows the reaction

of sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid: 2NaOH + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2H2O. In a laboratory experiment, a student mixes 355 grams of sulfuric acid with an excess of sodium hydroxide. What is the theoretical mass of sodium sulfate produced? Refer to the periodic table and the polyatomic ion resource. The theoretical mass of sodium sulfate is grams.

Answer:

514.5 g.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation of the reaction is: 2NaOH + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O.
  • It is clear that every 2.0 moles of NaOH react with 1.0 mole of H₂SO₄ to produce 1.0 mole of Na₂SO₄ and 2.0 moles of 2H₂O.
  • Since NaOH is in excess, so H₂SO₄  is the limiting reactant.
  • We need to calculate the no. of moles of 355.0 g of H₂SO₄:

n of H₂SO₄ = mass/molar mass = (355.0 g)/(98.0 g/mol) = 3.622 mol.

Using cross multiplication:

∵ 1.0 mol H₂SO₄ produces → 1.0 mol of Na₂SO₄.

∴ 3.622 mol H₂SO₄ produces → 3.662 mol of Na₂SO₄.

  • Now, we can get the theoretical mass of Na₂SO₄:

∴ mass of Na₂SO₄ =  no. of moles x molar mass = (3.662 mol)(142.04 g/mol) = 514.5 g.

The rate of a certain chemical reaction is directly proportional to the square of the concentration of chemical A present and in
motikmotik

Answer:

D. 40 % increase  

Step-by-step explanation:

r = k[A]²/[B]

The rate is inversely proportional to [B]. If [B] is doubled, the rate is halved.

We must double this rate to get back to the original.

The rate is directly proportional to [A]².

2 = [A]₂/[A]₁²     Take the square root of each side

√2 = [A]₂/[A]₁     Multiply each side by [A]₁

[A]₂ = √2[A]₁

[A]₂ = 1.41[A]₁

We must increase [A] by 41 %.

Which statement regarding the gold foil experiment is FALSE? 1. The α particles were repelled by electrons. 2. It suggested that
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

1. The α particles were repelled by electrons.

Explanation:

The gold foil experiment was performed by Rutherford and his research group in 1911 (at the beginning of the 20th century). In this experiment, α particles were bombed to gold foils, and films were placed surround it to collect the particles.

It was observed that most of the particles passed through of the foil undeflected, and for that, Rutherford stated that the atom was a "huge empty". Some particles were deflected, because they're attracted to the electrons at the electrosphere, and a small number of particles were complete deflected to the origin because they chocked with the small positive nuclei.

Thus, the experiment suggested the nuclear model of the atom, called the planetary model, that was improved after by Bohr and other scientists in the quantum model.

What type of change forms a new<br> substance?
marusya05 [52]

Chemical changes cause a substance to change into an entirely substance with a new chemical formula. Chemical changes are also known as chemical reactions. The “ingredients” of a reaction are called reactants, and the end results are called products.

Aqueous lithium sulfate was mixed with aqueous strontium chlorate, and a crystallized strontium sulfate product was formed. cons
Dmitriy789 [7]

Lithium sulfate is Li2SO4

Strontium chlorate is Sr(ClO3)2

Strontium sulfate is SrSO4

 

So the complete balanced chemical reaction for this is:

 

Li2SO4 (aq) +  Sr(ClO3)2 (aq) -->  SrSO4 (s)  +  2 LiClO3 (aq)

 

 

This is a type of double replacement reaction since there is an exchange of ions.
