Answer:

1. Phenolphthalein

2. Phenolphthalein

3. Methyl orange

Explanation:

Different indicators are used by knowing the relative strength of the acid and the bases I.e whether the acid is strong or weak, so also the base.

The following answers are obtainable:

1. Phenolphthalein

We use this indicator for a weak base and a strong acid. Formic acid is a weak organic acid while sodium hydroxide is a strong base

2. Phenolphthalein

We use this indicator because we are dealing with a strong acid and a strong base. Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid while potassium hydroxide is a strong base

3. Methyl orange

This is because we are dealing with a strong acid and a weak base

Zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid according to the reaction equation Zn ( s ) + 2 HCl ( aq ) ⟶ ZnCl 2 ( aq ) + H 2 ( g ) How ma

Katen [24]

Answer: 12.0 milliliters of 6.50 M HCl ( aq ) are required to react with 2.55 g Zn.

Explanation:

moles = $\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}$

moles of zinc = $\frac{2.55g}{65.38g/mol}=0.0390moles$

The balanced chemical equation is :

$Zn(s)+2HCl(aq)\rightarrow ZnCl_2(aq)+H_2(g)$

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of zinc reacts with = 2 moles of HCl

Thus 0.0390 moles of zinc reacts with = $\frac{2}{1}\times 0.0390=0.0780$ moles of HCl

To calculate the volume for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution in ml}}$ .....(1)

Molarity of $HCl$ solution = 6.50 M

Volume of solution = ?

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$6.50M=\frac{0.0780\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution in ml}}$

${\text{Volume of solution in ml}}=12.0ml$

Thus 12.0 ml of 6.50 M HCl ( aq ) are required to react with 2.55 g Zn

The cube has a mass of 72.9 g. What is its density in g/cm3? What substance is it?

sashaice [31]

If the cube is 3 cm on each side, then it has a volume of 27 cm^3 (3 x 3 x 3). Density is mass divided by volume, so its density is 72.9/27 = 2.7 g/cm^3.

Going by the density, the cube is made of Aluminium - density is a fairly unique quantity
