A simple proportion,
10  \div 35 = x \div 61
61 \times 10 = 610
610 \div 35 = 17.42857
so x= 17.43~

How many atoms are in 2.70 moles of iron (Fe) atoms?
vredina [299]
The answer is <span>1.63 × 1024 atoms Fe.
</span>

Avogadro's number is the number of units (atoms, molecules) in 1 mole of substance:

<span>6.023 × 10²³ atoms per 1 mole
</span>So, how many atoms are per 2.70 moles:

6.023 × 10²³ atoms : 1 mole = x : 2.70 moles
x = 6.023 × 10²³ atoms * 2.70 moles : 1 mole
x = 16.3 × 10²³ = 1.63 × 10 × 10²³ = 1.63 × 10²⁴ atoms

A beaker with 155 mL of an acetic acid buffer with a pH of 5.000 is sitting on a benchtop. The total molarity of acid and conjug
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

ΔpH = 0.296

Explanation:

The equilibrium of acetic acid (CH₃COOH) in water is:

CH₃COOH ⇄ CH₃COO⁻ + H⁺

Henderson-Hasselbalch formula to find pH in a buffer is:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [CH₃COO⁻] / [CH₃COOH]

Replacing with known values:

5.000 = 4.740 + log₁₀ [CH₃COO⁻] / [CH₃COOH]

0.260 =  log₁₀ [CH₃COO⁻] / [CH₃COOH]

1.820 = [CH₃COO⁻] / [CH₃COOH] <em>(1)</em>

As total molarity of buffer is 0.100M:

[CH₃COO⁻] + [CH₃COOH] = 0.100M <em>(2)</em>

Replacing (2) in (1):

1.820 = 0.100M - [CH₃COOH] / [CH₃COOH]

1.820[CH₃COOH] = 0.100M - [CH₃COOH]

2.820[CH₃COOH] = 0.100M

[CH₃COOH] = 0.100M / 2.820

[CH₃COOH] = <em>0.035M</em>

Thus: [CH₃COO⁻] = 0.100M - 0.035M = <em>0.065M</em>

5.40 mL of a 0.490 M HCl are:

0.0054L × (0.490mol / L) = 2.646x10⁻³ moles HCl.

Moles of CH₃COO⁻ are: 0.155L × (0.065mol / L) = 0.0101 moles

HCl reacts with CH₃COO⁻ thus:

HCl + CH₃COO⁻ → CH₃COOH

After reaction, moles of CH₃COO⁻ are:

0.0101 moles - 2.646x10⁻³ moles = <em>7.429x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COO⁻</em>

<em />

Moles of CH₃COOH  before reaction are: 0.155L × (0.035mol / L) = 5.425x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COOH. As reaction produce 2.646x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COOH, final moles are:

5.425x10⁻³ moles +  2.646x10⁻³ moles = <em>8.071x10⁻³ moles of CH₃COOH</em>. Replacing these values in Henderson-Hasselbalch formula:

pH = 4.740 + log₁₀ [7.429x10⁻³ moles] / [8.071x10⁻³ moles]

pH = 4.704

As initial pH was 5.000, change in pH is:

ΔpH = 5.000 - 4.740 = <em>0.296</em>

The following reaction is exothermic. C6H12O6(s)+6O2(g)⇌6CO2(g)+6H2O(g)C6H12O6(s)+6O2(g)⇌6CO2(g)+6H2O(g) Predict the effect (shi
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

According to Le Chatelier's principle, increasing the reaction temperature of an exothermic reaction causes a shift to the left and decreasing the reaction temperature causes a shift to the right.

Explanation:

C6H12O6(s) + 6O2(g) ⇌6CO2(g) + 6H2O(g)

We are told that the forward reaction is exothermic, meaning heat is removed from the reacting substance to the surroundings.

According to Le Chatelier's principle,

1. for an exothermic reaction, on increasing the temperature, there is a shift in equilibrium to the left and formation of the product is favoured.

2. if the temperature of the system is decreased, the equilibrium shifts to right and the formation of the reactants is favoured.

3. if the reaction temperature is kept constant, the system is at equilibrium and there is no shift to the right nor to the left.
