Answer:

You first need to construct a balanced chemical equation to describe the reaction:

KOH + HNO3 ---------> KNO3 + H2O

Work out the no. moles of HNO3 being neutralized:

Moles = Volume x Concentration = (25/1000) x 0.0150 = 0.000375 moles

From the balanced equation the molar ratio of KOH to HNO3 is 1:1 so you also need 0.000375 moles of KOH to neutralise the nitric acid

Now you can work out the volume of KOH required:

Volume = Moles/Concentration = (0.000375)/0.05 = 0.0075 dm^3 = 7.5 cm^3

Given the balanced equation representing a reaction: 2na(s) + cl2(g) → 2nacl(s) + energy if 46 grams of na and 71 grams of cl2 r

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer is: 2) 117g.
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
Step 1: calculate amount of substance of sodium and chlorine.
n(Na) = m(Na)÷M(Na) = 46g ÷ 23 g/mol = 2 mol.
n(Cl₂) = m(Cl₂)÷M(Cl₂) = 71g ÷ 71 g/mol = 1 mol.
Step 2: calculate amount of substance and mass of sodium-chloride.
Because both sodium and chlorine react completely, we can use both n to compare with n of NaCl.
n(Na) : n(NaCl) = 2:2, 2 mol : n(NaCl) = 2:2
n(NaCl) = 2mol, m(NaCl) = 2mol ·5805 g/mol = 117 g.

Most organic compounds contain carbon and _____. most organic compounds contain carbon and _____. phosphate nitrogen oxygen hydr

bulgar [2K]

This question can be easily confused with. During the early times, organic compound are directly associated with living beings, people, plants and animals. That is somewhat true. The definition of organic compounds are compounds that contain carbon. So, it is true that most of the compounds in our body are organic. But you may confuse it to the abundance of elements in the body, which is oxygen. However, the most abundant element, besides carbon, in organic compounds is Hydrogen. You will notice this obviously in the organic compounds like alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, carbohydrates, lipids, hormones and proteins. Their general chemical formula usually involves Carbon and Hydrogen.

Based on lewis structure analysis, what is the formal charge of the central atom in clf3

MArishka [77]

Formal Charge is calculated as, Lewis structure is attached below,

Formal Charge = [# of valence electrons] - [electrons in lone pairs + 1/2 the number of bonding electrons]

# of valence electrons of Cl = 7

electrons in lone pairs = 4

number of bonding electrons = 6

Formal Charge = [7] - [4 + 6/2]

Formal Charge = [7] - [4 + 3]

Formal Charge = [7] - [7]

Formal Charge = 0

Result:
Formal charge on Cl in ClF₃ is zero.
