The reaction occurs by the following equation: 

K20 + H20 = 2KOH 

According to the equation we have following stoichiometric ratio:

n(K2O) : n(H20) = 1 : 1

From it, we can conclude that K2O and water react in same mass ratio.

Now, we have to determine limiting reagent (the one who determines how much the product will arise).

n(K2O)=m/M=8.2/94=0.09 mole

n(H20)=m/M=1.3/18=0.07 mole

So, there are fewer moles of H2O and it will determine the amount of the product.

n(H2O) : n(K0H) = 1 : 2

n(K0H)=n(H2O) x 2 = 0.17 mole

Finally, the was of KOH is:

m(KOH)= n x M = 0.17 x 56= 9.5 g

inessss [21]

Answer: b. how can we protect crops from drought

Explanation:

A scientific inquiry can be define as the fact finding inquiry in which query related to a scientific phenomena is answered by implementing a suitable scientific methodology.

Among the options given, b. how can we protect crops from drought is the correct option this is because of the fact that this can be answered by using suitable scientific experimental procedure. As drought is a natural phenomena it is expected to leave it's impact over the growth of crops as in drought crops may face scarcity of water which can limit the growth.

If 0.25 mol of HClO2 is added to enough water to prepare a 0.25 M HClO2 aqueous solution, what is the concentration of H3O+(aq)
hammer [34]

Answer:

The concentration of H3O+= 0.15M

Explanation:

From The equation of reaction

HClO2(aq) + H2O(l) ⇌ H3O+(aq) + ClO2−(aq)

0.25mol HClO2(aq) 0.25mol producesClO2−(aq) and x-mol of H3O+

Using Kc = [H3O+][ClO2-]/[HClO2]

0.15= 0.25*x/0.25

Simplify

x=0.15M

Which of the following would be the best choice for preparing a buffer with a pH = 8.0? Group of answer choices a solution of bo
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Hypochlorous acid - Sodium hypochlorite

Explanation:

A buffer works when pH you want is ± 1 unit of pKa of the buffer. For example, for a buffer with pKa 7, it works between 6 and 8 (7-1 and 7+1).

pKa = -log Ka:

pKa boric acid - Sodium borate: 9.23. As you want a pH of 8.0. This buffer has a pKa too high.

pKa Hypochlorous acid - Sodium hypochlorite: 7.46. With this pKa, this buffer is a great choice to prepare it with a pH = 8.0

pKa Formic acid - Sodium formate: 3.74. This pKa is too low to make a buffer with pH = 8.0

Best choice is:

<h3>Hypochlorous acid - Sodium hypochlorite</h3>
