The given molarity of sodium hydroxide solution = 2.0 M
The required concentration of sodium hydroxide is 65 mL of 0.6 M NaOH
Converting 65 mL to L:
Calculating the moles of NaOH in the final solution:
Finding out the volume of 2.0 M solution taken to prepare the final solution:
Therefore, 19.5 mL of 2.0 M NaOH solution and make it up to 65 mL to prepare 0.6 M NaOH solution.
<u>Given:</u>
Dimensions of the room= 12 ft * 15 ft * 8.60 ft
<u>To determine:</u>
The amount of HCN that gives the lethal dose in the room with the given dimensions
<u>Explanation:</u>
As per the World Health Organization, the lethal dose of HCN is around 300 ppm
300 ppm = 300 mg of HCN/ kg of inhaled air
Volume of air = volume of room = 12 * 15 *8.6 = 1548 ft³
Now, 1 ft³ = 28316.8 cm³
Therefore, the calculated volume of air corresponds to:
1548 * 28316.8 = 4.383 * 10⁷ cm3
Density of air (at room temperature 25 C) = 0.00118 g/cm3
Thus mass of air corresponding to the calculated volume is
Mass = Density * volume = 0.00118 g/cm3 * 4.383 * 10⁷ cm3
= 5.172*10⁴ g = 51.72 kg
Lethal amount of HCN corresponding to 51.72 kg of air would be.
= 51.72 kg air* 300 mg of HCN/1 kg air = 15516 mg
Ans: Lethal dose of HCN = 15.5 g
Nuclear energy is currently within almost every country becoming a growing source of energy use since it can provide a lot of energy within a short amount of time with little resources used to create it. It is quite possible that within the next few generations that nuclear energy could become a much larger source of energy within the United States. Although, many countries after the leak have resorted to other means of energy sources learning from the mistakes of Japan.
Hope this helps :)
Hello!
The reaction that took place was
B) exothermic. The equation for the ΔH is
To know if this reaction is
exothermic or
endothermic we will need to look at the
sign of the
ΔH. If it is
positive, it means that enthalpy of the products is
higher than the enthalpy of the reagents and the reaction is
endothermic.
If the sign is negative, it means that the enthalpy of the products is
lower than the enthalpy of the reagents and the reaction is
exothermic. In this case, the sign is negative, so the reaction is exothermic.
Have a nice day!
