Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

In this case, HCl is a strong acid, therefore, it dissociates completely in solution.

To know the quantity of water we need to add, we first need to know the concentration of the acid with pH = 6:

[H⁺] = antlog(-pH)

[H⁺] = antlog(-6) = 1x10⁻⁶ M

This means that the concentration is being diluted.

Now, even if we add great quantities of water, and the concentration and volume change, there is one time that do not change despite the quantity of water added; this is the moles. So, all we have to do, is calculate the moles of the acid in the 1 mL of water, and then, the volume of the acid when it's dilluted:

moles HCl = 0.1 * (1/1000) = 1x10⁻⁴ moles

Now that we have the moles, we can calculate the volume which the acid with the lowest concentration has:

V = mol/M

V = 1x10⁻⁴ / 1x10⁻⁶

V = 100 L

This means that we need to add 99.999 mL of water

Yuri [45]

Answer:

The reaction will continue in the forward direction until all the NO or all the NO₂ is used up.

Explanation:

  • <em>Le Châtelier's principle </em><em>states that when there is an dynamic equilibrium, and this equilibrium is disturbed by an external factor, the equilibrium will be shifted in the direction that can cancel the effect of the external factor to reattain the equilibrium.</em>

  • So, according to  Le Chatelier's principle, removing the product (N₂O₃) from the system means decreasing the concentration of the products; thus, the reaction will proceed forward to produce more product to minimize the stress of removing N₂O₃ from the system.

  • <em>So, the reaction will continue in the forward direction until all the NO or all the NO₂ is used up. </em>

How many grams are in 10.25 moles of zinc chromate?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

1859.4 g of ZnCrO₄ in 10.25 moles

Explanation:

First of all, we determine the molecular formula of the compound:

Zinc → Zn²⁺  (cation)

Chromate → CrO₄⁻²  (anion)

Zinc chromate → ZnCrO₄

Molar mass for the compound is:

Molar mass of Zn + Molar mass of Cr + (Molar mass of O) . 4 = 181.41 g/mol

65.41 g/mol + 52 g/mol + 16 g/mol . 4 = 181.41 g/mol

Let's apply this conversion factor: 10.25 mol . 181.41 g/mol = 1859.4 g
