You made hypochlorous acid (HOCI) by mixing bleach (NaOCI) with:
1 answer:
<u>Answer:</u> When bleach is mixed with water, it produces hypochlorous acid.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The chemical name for bleach is sodium hypochlorite. When this compound is reacted with water, it produces hypochlorous acid and sodium hydroxide.
The chemical equation for the reaction of sodium hypochlorite and water follows:
By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
1 mole of sodium hypochlorite reacts with 1 mole of water to produce 1 mole of hypochlorous acid and 1 mole of sodium hydroxide.
Hence, when bleach is mixed with water, it produces hypochlorous acid.

Explanation:
Let's consider the oxidation of sulfur dioxide.
2 SO₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 SO₃(g) ΔG° = -141.8 kJ
The Gibbs free energy (ΔG) can be calculated using the following expression:
ΔG = ΔG° + R.T.lnQ
where,
ΔG° is the standard Gibbs free energy
R is the ideal gas constant
T is the absolute temperature (25 + 273.15 = 298.15 K)
Q is the reaction quotient
The molar concentration of each gas ([]) can be calculated from its pressure (P) using the following expression:
<em>Calculate ΔG at 25°C given the following sets of partial pressures.</em>
<em>Part A 130atm SO₂, 130atm O₂, 2.0atm SO₃. Express your answer using four significant figures.</em>
ΔG = ΔG° + R.T.lnQ = -141.8 kJ/mol + (8.314 × 10⁻³ kJ/mol.K) × 298 K × ln (4.44 × 10⁻⁵) = -166.6 kJ/mol
<em>Part B 5.0atm SO₂, 3.0atm O₂, 30atm SO₃ Express your answer using four significant figures.</em>
<em />
ΔG = ΔG° + R.T.lnQ = -141.8 kJ/mol + (8.314 × 10⁻³ kJ/mol.K) × 298 K × ln 296 = -127.7 kJ/mol
<em>Part C Each reactant and product at a partial pressure of 1.0 atm. Express your answer using four significant figures.</em>
<em />
ΔG = ΔG° + R.T.lnQ = -141.8 kJ/mol + (8.314 × 10⁻³ kJ/mol.K) × 298 K × ln 24.4 = -133.9 kJ/mol
