The hydronium from the HCl is used to neutralize the bicarbonate in the baking soda. The hydronium is the acid and the bicarbonate ion is the base while the sodium and chloride ions are pH-neutral. Since theres a 1:1 mole ratio of hydronium to HCl and bicarbonate to sodium bicarbonate, it would require less HCl to neutralize a less concentration baking soda solution.

A gas mixture contains 3.00 atm of H2 and 1.00 atm of O2 in a 1.00 L vessel at 400K. If the mixture burns to form water while th

Answer:

$p_{H_2O}=2.00atm$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the following chemical reaction:

$2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O$

It means that we need to compute the moles of hydrogen and oxygen that are reacting, via the ideal gas equation as we know the volume, pressure and temperature:

$n_{H_2}=\frac{3.00atm*1.00L}{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*400K}=0.0914molH_2 \\\\n_{O_2}=\frac{1.00atm*1.00L}{0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*400K}=0.0305molH_2$

Thus, the yielded moles of water are computed by firstly identifying the limiting reactant:

$n_{H_2O}^{by\ H_2} = 0.0914molH_2*\frac{2molH_2O}{2molH_2} =0.0914molH_2O\\\\n_{H_2O}^{by\ O_2} = 0.0305molO_2*\frac{2molH_2O}{1molO_2} =0.0609molH_2O$

Thus, the fewest moles of water are 0.0609 mol so the limiting reactant is oxygen; in such a way, by using the ideal gas equation once again, we compute the pressure of water:

$p_{H_2O}=\frac{0.0609molH_2O*0.08206\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*400K}{1.00L}\\\\ p_{H_2O}=2.00atm$

Best regards!
