How many atoms of chlorine are there in 16.5 g of iron (iii) chloride?

1 answer:

7 0

Fecl3 has a RFM of 56 + (35.5 * 3) = 162.5

so find out its moles 16.5 ÷ 162 5 = aprox. 0.1M

then there is a 1 : 3 ratio so 0.1 * 3 = 0.3

then times that by the avogado constant which is 6.02×10^23

0.3 × 6.02×10^23 = ans

hope that helps

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between PCl5 and water is given below. If 3.45 moles of HCl are produced, how ma

enyata [817]

The coefficients of the substances give you the ratio of the number of moles.
The 4 before the H2O and the 5 before the HCl tell you that for every 5 moles of HCl created, 4 moles of H2O had to react.

Therefore:
$(3.45mol HCl)(\frac{4 mol H2O}{5 mol HCl})$
can be used to find the moles of H2O that react.

$(3.45mol HCl)(\frac{4 mol H2O}{5 mol HCl}) = 2.76 mol H20$

We mix 0.08 moles of chloroacetic acid (ClCH2COOH) and 0.04 moles of

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

A. pH using molar concentrations = 2.56

B. pH using activities = 2.46

C. pH of mixture = 2.56

Explanation:

A. pH using molar concentrations

ClCH₂COOH + H₂O ⇌ ClCH₂COO⁻ + H₃O⁺

HA + H₂O ⇌ A⁻ + H₃O⁺

We have a solution of 0.08 mol HA and 0.04 mol A⁻

We can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to calculate the pH.

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{pH} & = & \text{pK}_{\text{a}} + \log \left(\dfrac{[\text{A}^{-}]}{\text{[HA]}}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 +\log \left(\dfrac{0.04}{0.08}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 + \log0.50 \\& = &2.865 - 0.30 \\& = & \mathbf{2.56}\\\end{array}$

B. pH using activities

(i) Calculate [H⁺]

pH = -log[H⁺]

$\text{[H$^{+}$]} = 10^{-\text{pH}} \text{ mol/L} = 10^{-2.56}\text{ mol/L} = 2.73 \times 10^{-3}\text{ mol/L}$

(ii) Calculate the ionic strength of the solution

We have a solution of 0.08 mol·L⁻¹ HA, 0.04 mol·L⁻¹ Na⁺, 0.04 mol·L⁻¹ A⁻, and 0.00273 mol·L⁻¹ H⁺.

The formula for ionic strength is

$I = \dfrac{1}{2} \sum_{i} {c_{i}z_{i}^{2}}\\\\I = \dfrac{1}{2}\left [0.04\times (+1)^{2} + 0.04\times(-1)^{2} + 0.00273\times(+1)^{2}\right]\\\\= \dfrac{1}{2} (0.04 + 0.04 + 0.00273) = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 0.08273 = 0.041$

(iii) Calculate the activity coefficients

$\ln \gamma = -0.510z^{2}\sqrt{I} = -0.510(-1)^{2}\sqrt{0.041} = -0.510\times 0.20 = -0.10\\\gamma = 10^{-0.10} = 0.79$

(iv) Calculate the initial activity of A⁻

a = γc = 0.79 × 0.04= 0.032

(v) Calculate the pH

$\begin{array}{rcl}\text{pH} & = & \text{pK}_{\text{a}} + \log \left(\dfrac{a_{\text{A}^{-}}}{a_{\text{[HA]}}}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 +\log \left(\dfrac{0.032}{0.08}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 + \log0.40 \\& = & 2.865 -0.40\\& = & \mathbf{2.46}\\\end{array}\\$

C. Calculate the pH of the mixture

The mixture initially contains 0.08 mol HA, 0.04 mol Na⁺, 0.04 mol A⁻, 0.05 mol HNO₃, and 0.06 mol NaOH.

The HNO₃ will react with the NaOH to form 0.05 mol Na⁺ and 0.05 mol NO₃⁻.

The excess NaOH will react with 0.01 mol HA to form 0.01 mol Na⁺ and 0.01 mol A⁻.

The final solution will contain 0.07 mol HA, 0.10 mol Na⁺, 0.05 mol A⁻, and 0.05 mol NO₃⁻.

(i) Calculate the ionic strength

$I = \dfrac{1}{2}\left [0.10\times (+1)^{2} + 0.05 \times(-1)^{2} + 0.05\times(-1)^{2}\right]\\\\= \dfrac{1}{2} (0.10 + 0.05 + 0.05) = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 0.20 = 0.10$

(ii) Calculate the activity coefficients

$\ln \gamma = -0.510z^{2}\sqrt{I} = -0.510(-1)^{2}\sqrt{0.10} = -0.510\times 0.32 = -0.16\\\gamma = 10^{-0.16} = 0.69$

(iii) Calculate the initial activity of A⁻:

a = γc = 0.69 × 0.05= 0.034

(iv) Calculate the pH

$\text{pH} = 2.865 + \log \left(\dfrac{0.034}{0.07}\right ) = 2.865 + \log 0.49 = 2.865 - 0.31 = \mathbf{2.56}$

Which is a chemical property of soda ash?

MrRissso [65]

A chemical property of soda ash is that it is an alkaline compound , of pH 11.6 in aqueous solution. The chemical name of soda ash is sodium carbonate. It is a sodium salt of carbonic acid and occurs as a white crystalline compound. It has a cooling alkaline taste. It can be found in the ashes of many plants. It is produced in large quantities from sodium chloride (common salt). It can be found as a mineral in mineral deposits of natron usually in seasonal lakes when the lakes dry up.
