Only gas or vapor can be superheated. Use water as an example. Water at sea level boils at 212 degrees F. When heated to 212 degrees F, the molecules that make up water are moving at a high enough speed that they overcome the air pressure above the water. And for supercooled only liquids or solids can be supercooled for example Liquid water at sea level has a saturation (boiling) temperature of 212 degrees F. If we were to add heat to the saturated water, it would first boil away with no change in temperature (remember latent heat?) and then become superheated if still more heat were added to the vapor (steam) after it had all turned to a vapor.

To determine the concentration of SO4 2– ion in a sample of groundwater, 100.0 mL of the sample is titrated with 0.0250 M Ba(NO3
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

1.87x10⁻³ M SO₄²⁻

Explanation:

The reaction of SO₄²⁻ with Ba²⁺ (From Ba(NO₃)₂) is:

SO₄²⁻(aq) + Ba²⁺(aq) → BaSO₄(s)

<em>Where 1 mole of  SO₄²⁻ reacts per mole of Ba²⁺</em>

<em />

To reach the end point in this titration, we need to add the same moles of Ba²⁺ that the moles that are of SO₄²⁻.

Thus, to find molarity of SO₄²⁻ we need to find first the moles of Ba²⁺ added (That will be the same of SO₄²⁻). And as the volume of the initial sample was 100mL we can find molarity (As ratio of moles of SO₄²⁻ per liter of solution).

<em>Moles Ba²⁺:</em>

7.48mL = 7.48x10⁻³L ₓ (0.0250moles / L) = 1.87x10⁻⁴ moles of Ba²⁺ = Moles of SO₄²⁻

<em>Molarity SO₄²⁻:</em>

As there are 1.87x10⁻⁴ moles of SO₄²⁻ in 100mL = 0.1L, molarity is:

1.87x10⁻⁴ moles of SO₄²⁻ / 0.1L =

<h3> 1.87x10⁻³ M SO₄²⁻</h3>
