What makes the outer shell electrons important is that they

1 answer:

3 0

A, because the number of valence shell electrons (outer shell electrons) tells us how much the element or compound wants to bond or give up electrons. Most compounds and elements want to have eight valence ectrons in it's outer ring. So if an atom is far away from having eight, it will want to react more often.

A 0.708 g sample of a metal, M, reacts completely with sulfuric acid according to the reaction M ( s ) + H 2 SO 4 ( aq ) ⟶ MSO 4

ollegr [7]

Answer:

The metal has a molar mass of 65.37 g/mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the metal = 0.708 grams

Volume of hydrogen = 275 mL = 0.275 L

Atmospheric pressure = 1.0079 bar = 0.9947 atm

Temperature = 25°C

Vapor pressure of water at 25 °C = 0.03167 bar = 0.03126 atm

Step 2: The balanced equation

M(s) + H2SO4(aq) ⟶ MSO4 (aq) + H2(g)

Step 3: Calculate pH2

Atmospheric pressure = vapor pressure of water + pressure of H2

0.9947 atm = 0.03126 atm + pressure of H2

Pressure of H2 = 0.9947 - 0.03126

Pressure of H2 = 0.96344 atm

Step 4: Calculate moles of H2

p*V=n*R*T

⇒ with p = The pressure of H2 = 0.96344 atm

⇒ with V = the volume of H2 = 0.275 L

⇒ with n = the number of moles H2 = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ with R = the gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

⇒ with T = the temperature = 25°C = 298 Kelvin

n = (p*V)/(R*T)

n = (0.96344 * 0.275)/(0.08206*298)

n = 0.01083 moles

Step 5: Calculate moles of M

For 1 mole of H2 produced, we need 1 mole M

For 0.0108 moles of H2 we need 0.01083 moles of M

Step 6: Calculate molar mass of M

Molar mass M = Mass M / moles M

Molar mass M = 0.708 grams / 0.01083 moles

Molar mass M = 65.37 g/mol

The metal has a molar mass of 65.37 g/mol

3. In a typical titration experiment a student titrates a 5.00 mL sample of formic acid (HCOOH), a monoprotic organic acid, with

ira [324]

Answer:

2.893 x 10⁻³ mol NaOH

[HCOOH] = 0.5786 mol/L

Explanation:

The balanced reaction equation is:

HCOOH + NaOH ⇒ NaHCOO + H₂O

At the endpoint in the titration, the amount of base added is just enough to react with all the formic acid present. So first we will calculate the moles of base added and use the molar ratio from the reaction equation to find the moles of formic acid that must have been present. Then we can find the concentration of formic acid.

The moles of base added is calculated as follows:

n = CV = (0.1088 mol/L)(26.59 mL) = 2.892992 mmol NaOH

Extra significant figures are kept to avoid round-off errors.

Now we relate the amount of NaOH to the amount of HCOOH through the molar ratio of 1:1.

(2.892992 mmol NaOH)(1 HCOOH/1 NaOH) = 2.892992 mmol HCOOH

The concentration of HCOOH to the correct number of significant figures is then calculated as follows:

C = n/V = (2.892992 mmol) / (5.00 mL) = 0.5786 mol/L

The question also asks to calculate the moles of base, so we convert millimoles to moles:

(2.892992 mmol NaOH)(1 mol/1000 mmol) = 2.893 x 10⁻³ mol NaOH
