Answer:
0.185M sulfuric acid
Explanation:
Based on the reaction:
H₂SO₄ + 2KOH → K₂SO₄ + 2H₂O
<em>1 mole of sulfuric acid reacts with 2 moles of KOH</em>
Initial moles of H₂SO₄ and KOH are:
H₂SO₄: 0.750L ₓ (0.470mol / L) = <em>0.3525 moles of H₂SO₄</em>
KOH: 0.700L ₓ (0.240mol / L) = <em>0.168 moles of KOH</em>
The moles of sulfuric acis that react with KOH are:
0.168mol KOH ₓ (1 mole H₂SO₄ / 2 moles KOH) = 0.0840 moles of sulfuric acid.
Thus, moles that remain are:
0.3525moles - 0.0840 moles = <em>0.2685 moles of sulfuric acid remains</em>
As total volume is 0.700L + 0.750L = 1.450L, concentration is:
0.2685mol / 1.450L = <em>0.185M sulfuric acid</em>
Answer: The ion that contribute to water hardness are:
--> a. Ca2+
--> b. (HCO)3^- and
--> c. Mg2+
While K+ DOES NOT contribute to water hardness.
Explanation:
WATER in chemistry is known as a universal solvent. This is so because it is polar in nature and dissolves most inorganic solutes and some polar organic solutes to form aqueous solutions. It is composed of elements such as hydrogen and oxygen in the combined ratio of 2:1.
Water is said to be HARD if it does not lather readily with soap. There are two types of water hardness:
--> Permanent hardness: This is mainly due to the presence of CALCIUM and MAGNESIUM ions in the form of soluble tetraoxosulphate(VI) and chlorides. These ions are removed by adding washing soda or caustic soda.
--> Temporary hardness: This is due to the presence of calcium HYDROGENTRIOXOCARBONATES. It can be removed by boiling and using slaked lime.
Therefore from the above given ions, Ca2+,(HCO)3^- and Mg2+ contributes to water hardness.
I don't know if this will help but here are some chemical properties of acids and bases :
taste: sour (vinegar)
base: bitter (baking soda)
smell: frequently burns nose
base: usually no smell (except NH3)
texture: sticky
base: slippery
reactivity: frequently react with metals to form H2
base: react with many oils and fats
- <em>NH</em> <em> </em><em>at </em><em>5</em><em> </em><em>atm</em>
