I suppose you mean to ask why we can't go through obstacles.

Any atom is surrounded by an electronic cloud. When two atoms get close to each other, the electronic clouds repel each other, preventing them from interpenetrating each other. That same phenomenon, on a larger scale, prevents us from going through matter.

150 ml of 0.1 m naoh is added to 200 ml of 0.1 m formic acid, and water is added to give a final volume of 1 l. what is the ph o

N76 [4]

Number of moles of NaOH = V(NaOH) * M(NaOH)= 0.150 L * 0.1 moles/L = 0.015 moles

Number of moles of formic acid, HCOOH = V(HCOOH) * M(HCOOH) = 0.200 L * 0.1 moles/L = 0.020 moles

Here, the limiting reagent is NaOH

The reaction is represented as:

HCOOH + NaOH ↔HCOONa + H2O

Moles of HCOONa formed = Moles of the limiting reagent, NaOH = 0.015 moles

Moles of HCOOH remaining = 0.020-0.015 = 0.005 moles

Total final volume is given as 1 L

Therefore: [HCOOH] = 0.005 moles/1 L = 0.005 M

[HCOONa] = 0.015/1 = 0.015 M

pKa of HCOOH = 3.74

As per Henderson-Hasselbalch equation

pH = pka + log[HCOONa]/[HCOOH] = 3.74+log[0.015/0.005] = 4.22

Therefore, pH of the final solution = 4.22

According to the statement

2.12 x 10^4 lbs pounds of CaCO₃ are needed to neutralize this acid

<h3>What is neutralization?</h3>

A chemical reaction in which an acid and a base react quantitatively with each other is known as neutralization or neutralization. In a water reaction, neutralization ensures that there is no excess of hydrogen or hydroxide ions in the solution.

<h3>According to the given information:</h3>

The equation of the neutralization reaction between H2SO4 and CaCO3.

CaCO3 + H2SO4 → CaSO4 + H2CO3

H2CO3 dissociate to water and carbon dioxide.

CaCO3 + H2SO4 → CaSO4 + H2O + CO2

Now solving for the mass of CaCO3 needed to neutralize the acid.

mass of CaCO3 = 9460 Kg H2SO4 × $\frac{1000 \mathrm{~g}}{1 \mathrm{~kg}} \times \frac{1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO} 4}{98.1 \mathrm{gH}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4} \times \frac{1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{CaCO}\left(\mathrm{O}_3\right.}{1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{SO}_4}$ $\times \frac{100.1 \mathrm{~g} \mathrm{CaCO}_3}{1 \mathrm{~mol} \mathrm{CaCO}_3} \times \frac{2.205 \mathrm{lb}}{1000 \mathrm{~g}}$

= 21284.56606

mass of CaCO3 = 2.12 x 10^4 lbs

2.12 x 10^4 lbs pounds of CaCO₃ are needed to neutralize this acid.
