The acid HOCl (hypochlorous acid) is produced by bubbling chlorine gas through a suspension of solid mercury(II) oxide particles

in liquid water according to the equation 2HgO(s)+H2O(l)+2Cl2(g)⇌2HOCl(aq)+HgO⋅HgCl2(s) What is the equilibrium-constant expression for this reaction?

<u>Answer:</u> The expression for equilibrium constant is K_{eq}=\frac{[HOCl]^2}{[H_2O][Cl_2]^2}

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as K_{eq}

For the general chemical equation:

aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD

The expression for K_c is given as:

K_c=\frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}

For the given chemical reaction:

2HgO(s)+H_2O(l)+2Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2HOCl(aq.)+HgO.HgCl_2(s)

The expression for K_{eq} is given as:

K_{eq}=\frac{[HOCl]^2[HgO.HgCl_2]}{[HgO]^2[H_2O][Cl_2]^2}

The concentration of solid is taken to be 0.

So, the expression for K_{eq} is given as:

K_{eq}=\frac{[HOCl]^2}{[H_2O][Cl_2]^2}

Calculate how many grams would be required to prepare 600. 0 ml of 0. 150 m of naf? molar mass of naf is 41. 9 g/mo
marta [7]

Considering the definition of molarity and molar mass, the mass of NaF required is 3.771 grams.

<h3>Definition of molarity</h3>

Molar concentration or molarity is a measure of the concentration of a solute in a solution and indicates the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the moles of solute by the volume of the solution:

molarity=\frac{number of moles}{volume}

Molarity is expressed in units \frac{moles}{liters}.

<h3>Definition of molar mass</h3>

The molar mass of substance is a property defined as its mass per unit quantity of substance, in other words, molar mass is the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole.

<h3 /><h3>Mass of NaF required</h3>

In this case, you know:

  • molarity= 0.15 M= 0.15 \frac{moles}{L}
  • number of moles= ?
  • volume= 600 mL= 0.6 L

Replacing in the definition of molarity:

0.15\frac{moles}{L} =\frac{number of moles}{0.6 L}

Solving:

0.15 \frac{moles}{L} × 0.6 L= number of moles

<u><em>0.09 moles= number of moles</em></u>

The molar mass of NaF is 41. 9 g/mol. So, you can apply the following rule of three: If by definition of molar mass 1 mole of the compound contains 41.9 grams, 0.09 moles of the compound contains how much mass?

mass=\frac{0.09 molesx41.9 grams}{1 mole}

<u><em>mass= 3.771 grams</em></u>

Finally, the mass of NaF required is 3.771 grams.
