An apple is a mixture because a mixture has chemicals such as water, vitamins, sugar, and lots more.

An apple would be a mixture. While a mixture is a combination of elements and substances, a pure substance acts as an element itself, therefore, having the properties of only THAT certain element.

How is the process of converting kiwi into plasticware evidence of a chemical reaction?.

galben [10]

Chemical reaction to biomass, like kiwi, into synthetic materials, like plastic, impact society because kiwi is biodegradable but plastic is not.

The series of chemical reactions used to change natural resources into synthetic products is termed chemical synthesis. Synthetic materials are formed when humans mix substances together for the purpose of creating new materials with desirable properties. Synthetic materials are produced by chemically changing the initial substances to create some material with different characteristics. Some of the best examples of synthetic materials are plastics and medicines. A synthetic substance may or may not be chemically identical to a naturally-occurring substance.

A student reacts 20.0 mL of 0.248 M H2SO4 with 15.0 mL of 0.195 M NaOH. Write a balanced chemical equation to show this reaction

Molodets [167]

Answer: The concentration of salt (sodium sulfate), sulfuric acid and NaOH in the solution is 0.0418 M, 0.0999 M and 0 M respectively.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$ .....(1)

For NaOH:

Initial molarity of NaOH solution = 0.195 M

Volume of solution = 15.0 mL = 0.015 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.195M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}}{0.015L}\\\\\text{Moles of NaOH}=(0.195mol/L\times 0.015L)=2.925\times 10^{-3}mol$

For sulfuric acid:

Initial molarity of sulfuric acid solution = 0.248 M

Volume of solution = 20.0 mL = 0.020 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.248M=\frac{\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4}{0.020L}\\\\\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=(0.248mol/L\times 0.020L)=4.96\times 10^{-3}mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and sulfuric acid follows:

$2NaOH+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+2H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of sulfuric acid

So, $2.925\times 10^{-3}$ moles of KOH will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 2.925\times 10^{-3}=1.462\times 10^{-3}mol$ of sulfuric acid

As, given amount of sulfuric acid is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, NaOH is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

Excess moles of sulfuric acid = $(4.96-1.462)\times 10^{-3}=3.498\times 10^{-3}mol$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of KOH produces 1 mole of sodium sulfate

So, $2.925\times 10^{-3}$ moles of KOH will produce = $\frac{1}{2}\times 2.925\times 10^{-3}=1.462\times 10^{-3}mol$ of sodium sulfate

For sodium sulfate:

Moles of sodium sulfate = $1.462\times 10^{-3}moles$

Volume of solution = [15.0 + 20.0] = 35.0 mL = 0.035 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Molarity of sodium sulfate}=\frac{1.462\times 10^{-3}}{0.035}=0.0418M$

For sulfuric acid:

Moles of excess sulfuric acid = $3.498\times 10^{-3}mol$

Volume of solution = [15.0 + 20.0] = 35.0 mL = 0.035 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Molarity of sulfuric acid}=\frac{3.498\times 10^{-3}}{0.035}=0.0999M$

For NaOH:

Moles of NaOH remained = 0 moles

Volume of solution = [15.0 + 20.0] = 35.0 mL = 0.035 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Molarity of NaOH}=\frac{0}{0.050}=0M$

Hence, the concentration of salt (sodium sulfate), sulfuric acid and NaOH in the solution is 0.0418 M, 0.0999 M and 0 M respectively.

Calculate the molar concentration of the Cl⁻ ions in 0.65 M CaCl2(aq), assuming that the dissolved substance dissociates complet

alexandr1967 [171]

The question here is solved using basic chemistry. CaCl2(aq) is an ionic compound which will have the releasing of 2 Cl⁻ ions ions in water for every molecule of CaCl2 that dissolves.
CaCl2(s) --> Ca+(aq) + 2 Cl⁻(aq)
[Cl⁻] = 0.65 mol CaCl2/1L × 2 mol Cl⁻ / 1 mol CaCl2 = 1.3 M
The answer to this question is [Cl⁻] = 1.3 M
