Answer:

0.54 mole

Explanation:

                                     CH3COOH    CH3CH2OH   CH3COOCH2CH3    H2O​

Initial concentration   1.0 mole         1.0 mole                0 mole                  1.0mol

Change                          - x                   - x                      + x                          + x  

Equilibrium                   (1.0 - x)          (1.0 - x)                   x                       (1.0 + x)

K = [CH3COOCH2CH3]*[H2O​]/[CH3COOH]*[CH3CH2OH]

x*(1.0+x)/(1.0-x)(1.0-x) = 4.0

x+x²=4*(1-x)²

x+x² = 4(1² - 2x + x²)

x + x² = 4 - 8x + 4x²

4 - 8x + 4x²- x² - x= 0

3x² - 9x + 4 = 0

x=2.5 , x=0.54

2.5 mole of acid cannot be esterified, because there is only 1.0 mole of acid,

so answer is 0.54 mole.

What is the molarity of a sodium chloride solution made by dissolving 4.512 moles to make 2.0 L?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

2.40 M

Explanation:

The molarity of a solution tells you how many moles of solute you get per liter of solution.

Notice that the problem provides you with the volume of the solution expressed in milliliters,

mL

. Right from the start, you should remember that you must convert this volume to liters by using the conversion factor

1 L

=

10

3

mL

Now, in order to get the number of moles of solute, you must use its molar mass. Now, molar masses are listed in grams per mol,

g mol

−

1

, which means that you're going to have to convert the mass of the sample from milligrams to grams

1 g

=

10

3

mg

Sodium chloride,

NaCl

, has a molar mass of

58.44 g mol

−

1

, which means that your sample will contain

The answer is rounded to three sig figs, the number of sig figs you have for the volume of the solution.

The titration of Na2CO3 with HCl has the following qualitative profile: a. Identify the major species in solution at points A-F.
exis [7]

Answer:

Answer is explained in the explanation section below.

Explanation:

Solution:

Note: This question is incomplete and lacks very important data to solve this question. But I have found the similar question which shows the profiles about which question discusses. Using the data from that question, I have solved the question.

a) We need to find the major species from A to F.

Major Species at A:

1. Na_{2} CO_{3}

Major Species at B:

1. Na_{2} CO_{3}

2. NaHCO_{3}

Major Species at C:

1. NaHCO_{3}

Major Species at D:

1. NaHCO_{3}

2. H_{2}CO_{3}

Major Species at E:

1. H_{2}CO_{3}

Major Species at F:

1. H_{2}CO_{3}

b) pH calculation:

At Halfway point B:

pH = pKa_{1} + log[CO_{3}.^{-2}]/[HCO_{3}.^{-1}]

pH = pKa_{1} = 6.35

Similarly, at halfway point D.  

At point D,

pH = pKa_{2} + log [HCO_{3}.^{-1}]/[H2CO_{3}]

pH = pKa_{2} = 10.33
