Answer:

The answer is 1.06g.

Explanation:

Analysis of question:

1. Identify the information in the question given.

volume of HCl is 2 dm3
pH of HCl is 2.0

2. What the question want?

mass of Na2CO3 is ?(unknown)
3. Do calculation.
1st-Write a balanced chemical equation:

Na2CO3 + 2HCl (arrow) 2NaCl + H20 + CO2

2nd-Determine the molarity of HCl with the value of 2.0.

pH= -log[H+]

2.0= -log[H+]

log[H+]= -2.0

[H+]= 10 to the power of negative 2(10-2)

=0.01 mol dm-3

molarity of HCl is 0.01 mol dm-3

3rd-Find the number of moles of HCl

n=MV

=0.01 mol dm-3 × 2 dm3

=0.02 mol of HCl

4th-Find the second mol of it.

Based on the chemical equation,

2.0 mol of HCl reacts with 1.0 mol of Na2CO3

0.02 mol of HCl reacts with 0.01 mol of Na2CO3

Na2CO3>a=1 mol

2HCl>b=2 mol

5th-Find the mass of it.

mass= number of mole × molar mass

g=0.01 × [2(23)+ 12+ 3(16)]

g=0.01 × 106

# =1.06 g.

Answer:

Explanation:

the respiratory system and the circulatory system work closely together to deliver oxygen to cells and to get rid of the carbon dioxide the cells produce. The circulatory system picks up oxygen in the lungs and drops it off in the tissues, then performs the reverse service for carbon dioxide.

the one that is not a factor that contribute to natural selection is : Population stability population refer to the capability of a community to maintain its total amount of organisms within a specific period of time. This has nothing to do with natural selection, which basically a nature's way to reduce the number of organism to findout which organisms are more adaptive

What volume of 0.307 m naoh must be added to 200.0ml of 0.425m acetic acid (ka = 1.75 x 10-5 ) to produce a buffer of ph = 4.250

Blababa [14]

The buffer solution target has a pH value smaller than that of pKw (i.e., pH < 7.) The solution is therefore acidic. It contains significantly more protons $\text{H}^{+}$ than hydroxide ions $\text{OH}^{-}$ . The equilibrium equation shall thus contain protons rather than a combination of water and hydroxide ions as the reacting species.

Assuming that $x \; \text{L}$ of the 0.307 $\text{mol} \cdot \text{dm}^{-3}$ sodium hydroxide solution was added to the acetic acid. Based on previous reasoning, $x$ is sufficiently small that acetic acid was in excess, and no hydroxide ion has yet been produced in the solution. The solution would thus contain $0.2000 \times 0.425 - 0.307 \; x = 0.085 - 0.307 \; x$ moles of acetic acid and $0.307 \; x$ moles of acetate ions.

Let $\text{HAc}$ denotes an acetic acid molecule and $\text{Ac}^{-}$ denotes an acetate ion. The RICE table below resembles the hydrolysis equilibrium going on within the buffer solution.

$\begin{array}{lccccc}\text{R} & \text{HAc} & \leftrightharpoons & \text{H}^{+} & + & \text{Ac}^{-}\\\text{I} & 0.085 - 0.307 \; x& & 0 & & 0.307 \; x\\\end{array}$

The buffer shall have a pH of 4.250, meaning that it shall have an equilibrium proton concentration of $10^{4.250}\; \text{mol}\cdot \text{dm}^{-3}$ . There were no proton in the buffer solution before the hydrolysis of acetic acid. Therefore the table shall have an increase of $10^{-4.250}\;\text{mol}\cdot \text{dm}^{-3}$ in proton concentration in the third row. Atoms conserve. Thus the concentration increase of protons by $10^{-4.250}\;\text{mol}\cdot \text{dm}^{-3}$ would correspond to a decrease in acetic acid concentration and an increase in acetate ion concentration by the same amount. That is:

$\begin{array}{lcccccc}\text{R} & \text{HAc} & \leftrightharpoons & \text{H}^{+} & + & \text{Ac}^{-}\\\text{I} & 0.085 - 0.307 \; x& & 0 & & 0.307 \; x\\\text{C} & - 10^{-4.250} & & +10^{-4.250} & & +10^{-4.250} \\\text{E} & 0.085 - 10^{-4.250} - 0.307 \; x& & 10^{-4.250} & & 10^{-4.250} + 0.307 \; x\end{array}$

By definition:

$\text{K}_{a} = [\text{H}^{+}] \cdot [\text{Ac}^{-}] / [\text{HAc}]\\\phantom{\text{K}_{a}} = 10^{-4.250} \times (10^{-4.250} + 0.307 \; x) / (0.085 - 10^{-4.250} - 0.307 \; x)$

The question states that

$\text{K}_{a} = 1.75 \times 10^{-5}$

such that

$10^{-4.250} \times (10^{-4.250} + 0.307 \; x) / (0.085 - 10^{-4.250} - 0.307 \; x) = 1.75 \times 10^{-5}\\6.16 \times 10^{-5} \; x = 1.48 \times 10^{-6}\\x = 0.0241$

Thus it takes $0.0241 \; \text{L}$ of sodium hydroxide to produce this buffer solution.

About 3% of the water on Earth is freshwater. Only about 40% of that freshwater is available for human use. Why is so much fresh

OverLord2011 [107]

Because the freshwater is polluted.

1. Write the chemical equation when excess chloride ion is added to aqueous solution of cobalt chloride. Note observed color of

Aneli [31]

The element cobalt can form compounds in two different oxidation states, +2 and +3.

The +2 state is more common.

The ion Co2+ (aq) is pink.

Other compounds of cobalt(II), which include both anhydrous Co2+ and complex ions, are commonly blue.

If an aqueous solution contains both cobalt(II) and chloride ions, the blue ion CoCl42- forms, in equilibrium with the pink Co2+ (aq) ion.

CoCl42- (aq) <===========> Co2+ (aq) + 4Cl1-(aq)
