Acidic, basic. Also, 7 is neutral. Hope it helps! :)

Explanation:

A pH scale is a scale which helps in identifying whether a given substance is basic, acidic or neutral in nature.

So, when a substance has pH value less then 7 then it means the substance is acidic in nature. Whereas when a substance has pH value more then 7 then it means the substance is basic in nature.

On the other hand, if pH value of a substance is equal to 7 then it means the substance is neutral in nature.

Hence, we can conclude that the pH scale runs from 0 to 14, and is an indication of how acidic or basic a solution is. A pH close to zero indicates an acidic solution, and a pH near 14 indicates a basic solution.

1) You have an aqueous solution where [OH-] = 1 x 10-4 mol/L.
Irina18 [472]

1. A. 1 x10^{-10}x  is the hydrogen ion concentration.

 B. pH of the solution is 10

  C. The solution is basic.

2. The molarity of NaCl in 2.8 litres of water is 1.18 M

3. 1.64 M is the molarity of new solution.

4. 0.64 M is the molarity of the acid  or HCl used.

Explanation:

1. Data given [OH-] =1 x 10-4   mol/L.

A) K_{w}= [H_{3}O+] [OH]-     K_{w}= 1×10^{-14}

  [H_{3}O+]= 1×10^{-14} ÷ 1 x 10-4

             = 1 x10^{-10}x  is the hydrogen ion concentration.

     

B) pH =-log [H_{3}O+]

pH = -log[-1x 10^{-10}]

   pH  = 10

c) pH value of 10 indicates that it is a basic solution because it is greater than 7 and on pH scale more than 7 value indicates basicity.

2. Molarity is calculated by the formula

Molarity = \frac{number of moles}{volume}  

Number of moles can be calculated as:

n = \frac{mass}{atomic mass of one mole of substance}

n = \frac{195}{58.44}    ( atomic weight of NaCl is 58.44 gm/mole)

n= 3.33 moles

Now the molarity of NaCl in 2.8 litres of water is calculated as:

Molarity = \frac{number of moles}{volume}

M   =   \frac{3.33}{2.8}

M = 1.18

the molarity of NaCl in 2.8 litres of water is 1.18 M

3. Data given:

Initial volume of the HCl solution V1 = 152 ml, initial molarity M1 = 3

final volume of the diluted HCl V2= 750 ml, final molarity M2= Unknown

The initial and final volumes are converted into litres in calculation.

So, M1V1 = M2V2

   3×  \frac{152}{1000}  =  M2 × \frac{750}{1000}

M2 = \frac{0.75}{0.456}

M2 = 1.64 M is the molarity of new solution.

4. In titration the formula used is: M acid x V acid = M base x V base

Volume of base V1= 20 ml Molarity of base M1 = 0.24 M

volume of the acid V2 = 31 ml Molarity of the acid = unknown

the volume will be converted to litres.

So applying the formula,

M acid x V acid = M base x V base

0.24 x  \frac{20}{1000} = Macid x \frac{31}{1000}

0.0048 = Macid x 0.031

Macid= \frac{0.031}{0.048}

M base= 0.64 M is the molarity of the acid  or HCl used.

A fuel gas containing 86% methane, 8% ethane, and 6% propane by volume flows to a furnace at a rate of 1450 m3/h at 15°C and 150
Svetach [21]

Answer:

Basis: Hour

From the question, we will have the following reactions;

CH4 + 2O2   -------- CO2 + 2H20   (Methane with O2)

C2H6 + 3.5O2  -------- 2CO2 + 2H2O  (Butane with O2)

C3H8 + 5O2   ---------- 2CO2 + 4H2O   (Propane with O2)

But we are also given this,

R=8.314J/mol.K, V=1450m3/h, P=150kPa gauge, Pt=150+101kPa=251kPa, T=15C= 288K

Assuming they are all ideal gases, we can find the no of moles of the gases.

n=PV/RT,

n = 251x103 x 1450 /8.314 x 288

n = 151, 999mols = 152kmols

However from the input and complete reactions stoichiometries above, we will have,

1.  Methane 86% = 0.86 x 152kmols = 130kmols, required O2 = 2 x 130.7 = 261.44kmols

2. Ethane 8% = 0.08 x 152kmols = 12.2kmols, required O2 = 3.5 x 12.2 = 42.56kmols

3. Propane 6% = 0.06 x 152 kmols = 9.2kmols, required O2 = 5 x 9.1 = 45.5kmols

O2 = 349.5kmols,  with 8% excess, Total O2 = 349.5+ (0.08x349.5) = 377.46kmols

But Air:O2 = 21%: 100%

inflow Air = 377.46x 100/21= 1797.5kmols, at standard pressure and temperature.

From PV =nRT

V (M3/H) = nRT/P

 =====  1797.5mol x 8.314Nm/mol.K x 273K/101325Nm-2 x 1000

Hence, the required flow rate of air in SCMH = 40,265m³/h

PLS ANSWER ASAP, WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST ANSWER
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

.14L or 140mL

Explanation:

This is a classic plug-n-chug problem. Your textbook probably goes over this formula as M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}. M stands for molarity of the given substance, and V stands for the volume that the substance occupies.

Simply plug in the values that you're given, like so:

M_{1} = 1.5M\\V_{1} = ???\\M_2 = 7M\\V_2 = .03L

1.5M * x = 7M * .03L

After completing the algebra portion and solving for the unknown, you will be left with x = .14L, which is the volume required to neutralize 30mL of 7M NaOH.
