Answer: By using electrolysis.

Explanation:

Electrolysis is a chemical change produced by sending an electric current through a compound. Electrolysis works because the hydrogen and oxygen ions are held together by an electric attraction.

Explanation:

There are a couple of ways to prepare a buffer solution of a specific pH. In the first method, prepare a solution with an acid and its conjugate base by dissolving the acid form of the buffer in about 60% of the volume of water required to obtain the final solution volume

How many moles of aluminum are needed to make 9 moles of molecular hydrogen? given the reaction: 2 al + 6 hcl → 2 alcl3 + 3h2 6

sergiy2304 [10]

1) Chemical equation

2Al + 6 HCl ---> 2Al Cl3 + 3 H2

2) molar ratios

2 mol Al : 3 moles H2

3) Proportion

2 mol Al / 3mol H2 = x / 9 mol H2

4) Solve for x

x = 9 mol H2 * 2 mol Al / 3 mol H2 = 6 mol Ag

Answer: 6 moles

The magnitude of an earthquake, measured on the Richter Scale, is M log1o T where / is the amplitude registered on a seismograph

just olya [345]

<u>Answer:</u> The magnitude rating for an earthquake causing an amplitude 10,000,000 times $I_o$ is 7.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Richter scale is defined as the scale which expresses the magnitude of earthquake on the basis of the seismograph oscillations.

The equation used to measure the magnitude of an earthquake on Richter scale is:

$M=log_{10}\frac{I}{I_o}$

where

I = amplitude registered on seismograph 100 km away from seismic center = $10,000,000I_o$

$I_o$ = small amplitude

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$M=\log_{10}(\frac{10000000I_o}{I_o})\\\\M=7$

Hence, the magnitude rating for an earthquake causing an amplitude 10,000,000 times $I_o$ is 7.

PCl3(g) + Cl2(g) ⇋ PCl5(g) Kc = 91.0 at 400 K. What is the [Cl2] at equilibrium if the initial concentrations were 0.24 M for PC

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

[Cl₂] in equilibrium is 1.26 M

Explanation:

This is the equilibrium:

PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g) ⇋ PCl₅(g)

Kc = 91

So let's analyse, all the process:

PCl₃(g) + Cl₂(g) ⇋ PCl₅(g)

Initially 0.24 M 1.50M 0.12 M

React x x x

Some amount of compound has reacted during the process.

In equilibrium we have

0.24 - x 1.50 - x 0.12 + x

As initially we have moles of product, in equilibrium we have to sum them.

Let's make the expression for Kc

Kc = [PCl₅] / [Cl₂] . [PCl₃]

91 = (0.12 + x) / (0.24 - x) ( 1.50 - x)

91 = (0.12 + x) / (0.36 - 0.24x - 1.5x + x²)

91 (0.36 - 0.24x - 1.5x + x²) = (0.12 + x)

32.76 - 158.34x + 91x² = 0.12 +x

32.64 - 159.34x + 91x² = 0

This a quadratic function:

a = 91; b= -159.34; c = 32.64

(-b +- √(b² - 4ac)) / 2a

Solution 1 = 1.5

Solution 2 = 0.23 (This is our value)

So [Cl₂] in equilibrium is 1.50 - 0.23 = 1.26 M
