Environmental studies usually involve an analysis of precipitation and its response to pollution. To quantify the degree of cont

amination in natural rain water or snow, titration is used. The process is quick and results are reliable. Since most titration processes do not require expensive or specialized equipment, the test can be performed often and in different areas with relatively little effort. a. A 1000.0 mL sample of lake water is titrated using 0.100 mL of a 0.100 M base solution. What is the molarity of the acid in the lake water? Show all work. b. Based on the molarity of the acid calculated above, what is the pH of the lake water?

The molarity of the lake water is 0.00001 M and the pH of lake water is 5.

The lake water is acidic.

Explanation:

Data given:

molarity of base solution Mbase = 0.1 M

volume of the base solution Vbase = 0.1 ml or 0.0001 litre

volume of lake water Vlake = 1000ml  or 1 litre

molarity of the lake water, Mlake = ?

Using the formula for titration:

Mbase X Vbase = Mlake X

Mlake = \frac{Mbase X Vbase }{Vlake}

Putting the values in the equation:

Mlake = \frac{0.0001 X 0.1}{1}

Mlake = 0.00001 M

The pH of the lake water will be calculated by using the following formula:

pH = - log_{10} [H^{+}]

pH = -log_{10} [ 0.00001]

pH = 5

Which substance is an electrolyte <br> 1) CCl4 <br> 2)SiO2<br> 3)C6H12O6<br> 4) H2SO4
Elena L [17]
Electrolyte is any species which when dissolved in solvent particularly water dissociates into cations and anions. Electrolytes are conductors of electricity. In given options;

CCl₄ (Tetrachloromethane) is a covalent compound. And it doesn't dissociate to any cation or anion. So it is not electrolyte.

SiO₂ (Silicon Dioxide) is also covalent in nature and exist in giant framework. It is not electrolyte.

Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) is also covalent compound. And doesn't produced any ion in water, hence it is not electrolyte.

H₂SO₄ (Sulfuric acid) is Electrolyte. When it is dissolved in water it produces H⁺ and SO₄²⁻ ions as follow,

                                 H₂SO₄    →      2 H⁺ ₍aq₎    +   SO₄²⁻ ₍aq₎

Result:
               H₂SO₄ is electrolyte.

How do you do double replacement reactions?
Harman [31]
You have to switch the elements based in if they're metals/nonmetals. so nonmetals switch with each other and metals switch with each other.

Combustion analysis of 0.300 g of an unknown compound containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen produced 0.5213 g of co2 and 0.283
Lyrx [107]
First, we have to get how many grams of C & H & O in the compound:
- the mass of C on CO2 = mass of CO2*molar mass of C /molar mass of CO2
                                        = 0.5213 * 12 / 44 = 0.142 g
- the mass of H atom on H2O = mass of H2O*molar mass of H / molar mass of H2O
                                                 =0.2835 * 2 / 18 = 0.0315 g
- the mass of O = the total mass - the mass of C atom - the mass of H atom
                          =  0.3 - 0.142 - 0.0315 = 0.1265 g
Convert the mass to mole by divided by molar mass
C(0.142/12) H(0.0315/2) O(0.1265/16) 
C(0.0118) H(0.01575) O(0.0079) by dividing by the smallest value 0.0079
C1.504 H3.99 O1 by rounding to the nearst fraction
C3/2 H4/1 )1/1 multiply by 2 
∴ the emprical formula C3H8O2
