We may apply a mass balance here. The total moles of NaCl will remain constant before and after the mixing of the solutions. We have three solutions:
1) 25 ml of 5 M NaCl
2) 100 ml of 0 M NaCl
3) A mixture of these solutions with volume 125 ml and concentration C

The moles of a substance are equal to the product of the concentration and volume. Thus:

25 * 5 + 100 * 0 = 125 * C
C = 1 M

The concentration of the final solution is 1 M.

How many atoms are in an oxygen molecule?

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

two atoms

Explanation:

In its stable molecular form, oxygen exists as two atoms and is written O2. to distinguish it from an atom of oxygen O, or ozone, a molecule of three oxygen atoms, O3. Even though each of these is all oxygen, combining atoms of the same element may give very different properties to the molecule.

Write the balanced NET IONIC equation for the reaction that occurs when ammonium nitrate and potassium hydroxide are combined. N

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Net Ionic equation

NH₄⁺ + OH⁻ → NH₃ + H₂O

Option B is correct.

Weak Acid Strong Base

Check Explanation for the extent of the reaction.

Explanation:

Ammonium nitrate = NH₄NO₃

Potassium Hydroxide = KOH

Ammonium salts combine with alkalis to liberate NH₃ and form water.

The two reactants combine to give

NH₄NO₃ + KOH → KNO₃ + NH₃ + H₂O

In ionic form,

- NH₄NO₃ exists as NH₄⁺ and NO₃⁻

- KOH exists as K⁺ and OH⁻

- KNO₃ as K⁺ and NO₃⁻

And NH₃ and H₂O stay as they are, as per covalent compounds.

So, we have

NH₄⁺ + NO₃⁻ + K⁺ + OH⁻ → K⁺ + NO₃⁻ + NH₃ + H₂O

Eliminating the ions that exist on both sides, we have the net ionic equation to be

NH₄⁺ + OH⁻ → NH₃ + H₂O

which shows that this reaction is essentially a neutralization reaction in which the Bronsted Lowry acid, NH₄⁺, loses its proton to the base, OH⁻ and gives conjugate base, NH₃ and conjugate acid, H₂O.

This reaction is classified as a Weak acid versus Strong Base reaction as NH₄⁺ is from a Weak acid and OH⁻ is from a strong base.

Since this reaction is between a Weak base and a strong acid, the ionization isn't expected to be 100%, Hence, the extent of this reaction will be any option that is not 100%, a couple pieces of information might be required for the correct estimate, but above 50% seems correct.

Hope this Helps!!!
