Explanation:

Let us assume that the concentration of [OH^{-} and H^{+} is equal to x. Then expression for K_{w} for the given reaction is as follows.

          K_{w} = [OH^{-}][H^{+}]

          K_{w} = x^{2}

      6.8 \times 10^{-15} = x^{2}

Now, we will take square root on both the sides as follows.

          \sqrt{6.8 \times 10^{-15}} = \sqrt{x^{2}}

          [H^{+}] = 8.2 \times 10^{-8} M

Thus, we can conclude that the H_{3}O^{+} concentration in neutral water at this temperature is 8.2 \times 10^{-8} M.

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of H_3O^+ in neutral water is 8.2\times 10^{-8}M

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical equation for the ionization of water follows:

2H_2O\rightleftharpoons H_3O^++OH^-

The expression of K_w for above equation, we get:

K_w=[H_3O^+]\times [OH^-]

We are given:

K_w=6.8\times 10^{-15}

[H^+]=[OH^-]=x

Putting values in above equation, we get:  

6.8\times 10^{-15}=x\times x\\\\x=8.2\times 10^{-8}M

Hence, the concentration of H_3O^+ in neutral water is 8.2\times 10^{-8}M

In a chemical change
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

B. materials change their properties.

Explanation:

In a chemical change, materials often change their properties because a re-arrangement of atoms takes place.

A chemical change is one in which new kind of matter is formed.

It is always accompanied by energy changes.

  • Chemical changes are not reversible.
  • They lead to the production of new kinds of matter
  • It involves mass changes
  • Requires considerable amount of energy

When 3243. grams of iron (III) chloride are reacted with 511.8 grams of hydrosulfuric acid, which is the limiting reactant?
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Hydrosulfuric acid will act as limiting reactant.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of iron(III) chloride = 3243.0 g

Mass of hydrosulfuric acid = 511.8 g

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2FeCl₃ + 3H₂S       →       Fe₂S₃ + 6HCl

Number of moles of iron(III) chloride:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 3243.0 g/ 162.2 g/mol

Number of moles = 20 mol

Number of moles of hydrosulfuric acid:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 511.8 g/ 34.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 15 mol

Now we will compare the moles of both reactant with products

                      FeCl₃          :          Fe₂S₃

                       2                :            1

                      20               :          1/2 ×20 = 10

                      FeCl₃          :            HCl

                       2                :              6

                      20               :          6/2 ×20 = 60

                      H₂S             :          Fe₂S₃

                       3                :            1

                      15               :          1/3 ×15 = 5

                      H₂S            :            HCl

                       3                :              6

                      15                :          6/3 ×15 = 30

Hydrosulfuric acid producing less number of moles of product thus, it will act as limiting reactant.
