In terms of molecular motion, why does an increase in pressure lead to an increased solubility of a gas?

1 answer:

7 0

We imagine a piston cylinder and a solution of gas and water. Molecules are in constant random motion and some of the gas particles are in the vapor phase while some in the liquid phase. At a specific volume, molecules move freely. However, when the piston is moved down, increasing the pressure, some of the molecules in the vapor are pushed down to the liquid phase in order maintain equilibrium thus increasing solubility

A 50.0 mL solution of 0.141 M KOH is titrated with 0.282 M HCl . Calculate the pH of the solution after the addition of each of

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

pH =1 2.84

Explanation:

First we have to start with the reaction between HCl and KOH:

$HCl~+~KOH->~H_2O~+~KCl$

Now for example, we can use a volume of 10 mL of HCl. So, we can calculate the moles using the molarity equation:

$M=\frac{mol}{L}$

We know that $10mL=0.01L$ and we have the concentration of the HCl $0.282M$ , when we plug the values into the equation we got:

$0.282M=\frac{mol}{0.01L}$

$mol=0.282*0.01$

$mol=0.00282$

We can do the same for the KOH values ( $50mL=0.05L$ and $0.141M$ ).

$0.141M=\frac{mol}{0.05L}$

$mol=0.141*0.05$

$mol=0.00705$

So, we have so far 0.00282 mol of HCl and 0.00705 mol of KOH. If we check the reaction we have a molar ratio 1:1, therefore if we have 0.00282 mol of HCl we will need 0.00282 mol of KOH, so we will have an excess of KOH. This excess can be calculated if we substract the amount of moles:

$0.00705-0.00282=0.00423mol~of~KOH$

Now, if we want to calculate the pH value we will need a concentration, in this case KOH is in excess, so we have to calculate the concentration of KOH. For this, we already have the moles of KOH that remains left, now we need the total volume:

$Total~volume=50mL+10mL=60mL$

$60mL=0.06L$

Now we can calculate the concentration:

$M=\frac{0.00423mol}{0.06L}$

$M=0.0705$

Now, we can calculate the pOH (to calculate the pH), so:

$pOH=-Log(0.0705)$

$pOH=1.15$

Now we can calculate the pH value:

$14=~pH~+~pOH$

$pH=14-1.15=12.84$

How many moles of Manganese there in are 5.76 x 10(15) atoms of Mn?

aksik [14]

Answer:

1. 9.57 × 10^-9 moles.

2. 7.38mol

Explanation:

1.) To find the number of moles there are in the number of particles in an atom, we divide the number of particles (nA) by Avagadro's constant (6.02 × 10^23)

Hence, to find the number of moles (n) of Manganese (Mn), we say:

5.76 x 10^15 atoms ÷ 6.02 × 10^23

5.76/6.02 × 10^(15-23)

= 0.957 × 10^-8

= 9.57 × 10^-9 moles.

2.) Mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of sodium chloride (NaCl) = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5g/mol

mole = 431.6 g ÷ 58.5g/mol

mole = 7.38mol
