How do you prepare diluted acid from concentrated acid?

A dilute acid solution is prepared by adding the concentrated acid to water. If you do the reverse, i.e. add water to the acid it is possible that a small amount water could react with acid and boil and explode thus splashing the acid onto you or someone else near the activity.

<span>Answer: 0.094%


</span><span>Explanation:
</span>
<span></span><span /><span>
1) Equilibrium chemical equation:
</span><span />

<span>Only the ionization of the formic acid is the important part.
</span><span />

<span>HCOOH(aq) ⇄ HCOO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).
</span><span />

<span>2) Mass balance:
</span><span />

<span>                   HCOOH(aq)     HCOO⁻(aq)     H⁺(aq).

Start             0.311                 0.189

Reaction       - x                      +x                   +x

Final             0.311 - x          0.189 + x            x


3) Acid constant equation:
</span><span />

<span>Ka = [HCOO-] [N+] / [HCOOH] = (0.189 + x) x / (0.311 -x)
</span><span />

<span>= (0.189 + x )x / (0.311 - x) = 0.000177


4) Solve the equation:


You can solve it exactly (it will lead to a quadratic equation so you can use the quadratiic formula). I suggest to use the fact that x is much much smaller than 0.189 and 0.311.
</span><span />

<span>With that approximation the equation to solve becomes:


</span><span>0.1890x / 0.311 = 0.000177, which leads to:</span>
<span /><span>
x = 0.000177 x 0.311 / 0.189 = 2.91 x 10⁻⁴ M


5) With that number, the percent of ionization (alfa) is:
</span><span />

<span>percent of ionization = (moles ionized / initial moles) x 100 =
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>percent ionization = (concentration of ions / initial concentration) x 100 =
</span><span>
</span><span>
</span><span>percent ionization = (0.000291 / 0.311)x 100 = 0.0936% = 0.094%

PLZZZ HELP MEEEE!!!!! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!
Alja [10]

Answer:

PV ∝ T

Explanation:

Charles’ law states that, at constant pressure, volume is proportional to

temperature. Gay-Lussac’s law states that, at constant volume, pressure is proportional to

temperature. Therefore, the product of pressure and volume is proportional to temperature.

This is also consistent with Boyle’s law, which states that pressure is inversely proportional

to volume when temperature is constant

Solubility of a compound in water can be referred to as the amount of the compound that can be dissolved in 1 L of the solvent (water) at any given temperature. Solubility of a compound can be expressed in the units of g/L or mg/L.

Given that the solubility of calcium carbonate in water = 14 mg/L

We have to calculate the volume of water that can dissolve 11 g of calcium carbonate.

Converting 11 g calcium carbonate to mg:

11g *\frac{1000mg}{1g} =11,000 mg

Volume of water that would dissolve 11000 mg calcium carbonate

                             = 11000 mg CaCO_{3}*\frac{1L}{14 mg}

                             =785.7 L

Rounding the volume 785.7 L to two significant figures, we get 790 L water.

Therefore, we would need 790 L water to completely dissolve 11 g of calcium carbonate.
