How would you prepare 1.00 L of a 0.50 M solution of each of the following?

Lunna [17]

Answer:

Take approx 41.7 mL of 12-M HCl in a 1.00-L flask and fill the rest of the volume with distilled water.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the dilution process from concentrated 12-M hydrochloric acid to 1.00 L of the diluted 0.50M hydrochloric acid, the volume of concentrated HCl you must take is computed by considering that the moles remain constant for all dilution processes as shown below:

$n_1=n_2$

Which can also be written in terms of concentrations and volumes:

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$

Thus, solving for the initial volume or aliquot that must be taken from the 12-M HCl, we obtain:

$V_1=\frac{M_2V_2}{M_1} \\\\V_1=\frac{1.00L*0.5M}{12M}\\ \\V_1=0.0417L=41.7mL$

It means that you must take approx 41.7 mL of 12-M HCl in a 1.00-L flask and fill the rest of the volume with distilled water for such preparation.

Best regards.

When calcium carbonate is added to hydrochloric acid, calcium chloride, carbon dioxide, and water are produced. CaCO 3 ( s ) + 2

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: The mass of calcium chloride formed is 15.21 grams.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For calcium carbonate:

Given mass of calcium carbonate = 32.0 g

Molar mass of calcium carbonate = 100 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of calcium carbonate}=\frac{32.0g}{100g/mol}=0.32mol$

For hydrochloric acid:

Given mass of hydrochloric acid = 10.0 g

Molar mass of hydrochloric acid = 36.5 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of hydrochloric acid}=\frac{10.0g}{36.5g/mol}=0.274mol$

The given chemical equation follows:

$CaCO_3(s)+2HCl(aq.)\rightarrow CaCl_2(aq.)+H_2O(l)+CO_2(g)$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of hydrochloric acid reacts with 1 mole of calcium carbonate

So, 0.274 moles of hydrochloric acid will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.274=0.137mol$ of calcium carbonate

As, given amount of calcium carbonate is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, hydrochloric acid is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of hydrochloric acid produces 1 mole of calcium chloride.

So, 0.274 moles of hydrochloric acid will produce = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.274=0.137moles$ of calcium chloride.

Now, calculating the mass of calcium chloride from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of calcium chloride = 111 g/mol

Moles of calcium chloride = 0.137 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.137mol=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium chloride}}{111g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of calcium chloride}=(0.137mol\times 111g/mol)=15.21g$

Hence, the mass of calcium chloride formed is 15.21 grams.

Phosphorus oxychloride has the chemical formula POCl3, with P as the central atom. In order to minimize formal charge, how many

Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

Phosphorus makes 5 bonds with other atoms

Explanation:

$POCl_{3}$ has total 32 number of valence electrons (P has 5 , O has 6 and Cl has 7 valence electrons).

These valence electrons are used to draw Lewis structure of $POCl_{3}$ .

Formal charge on an atom = (no. of valence electrons of the atom)-(no. of covalent bonds attached to the atom)-(no. of electrons in lone pair of the atom)

Applying octet rule (atoms have eight electrons in their valence shell) and minimizing formal charge of $POCl_{3}$ , it has been found that P makes total 5 bonds with rest of the atoms.

Lewis structure of $POCl_{3}$ along with formal charge (in parentheses) has been given below.
