A piece of sodium metal reacts completely with water to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. the hydrogen gas generated is

collected over water at 25.0 degrees celsius. the volume of the gas is 246 ml measured at 1.00 atm. calculate the number of grams of sodium used in the reaction (vapor pressure of water at 25 degrees celsius = 0.0313 atm).

We get the pressure of the hydrogen gas from the difference between the measured pressure and the vapor pressure of water:
     total pressure = Pressure of H2 + Vapor Pressure of H2O
     1.00 atm = Pressure of H2 + 0.0313 atm
     Pressure of H2 = 1.00 atm - 0.0313 atm = 0.9687 atm

From the ideal gas law,
     PV = nRT
we can calculate for the number of moles of H2 as
     n = PV/RT = (0.9687 atm)(0.246L) / (0.08206 L·atm/mol·K)(298.15 K)
        = 0.00974 mol H2
where 
     V = 246 mL (1 L / 1000 mL) = 0.246 L
     T = 25 degrees Celsius + 273.15 = 298.15 K 

We use the mole ratio of Na and H2 from the reaction of sodium metal with water as shown in the equation 
     2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2 NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
and the molar mass of sodium Na to get the mass of sodium used in the reaction:
     mass of Na = 0.00974 mol H2 (2 mol Na /1 mol H2)(22.99 g Na/1 mol Na)
                        = 0.448 grams of sodium

What is the mass of HF produced by three reaction of 3.0 10 to the 23 molecules of H2 with excess F2
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

It is 20. g HF

Explanation:

H2 + F2 ==> 2HF  ...  balanced equation

Since the question is asking us to find the mass of product formed, we will want to first convert the molecules of H2 into moles of H2 (we could do this at the end of the calculations, but it's just as easy to do it now).

moles of H2 present (using Avogadro's number):  

3.0x1023 molecules H2 x 1 mole H2/6.02x1023 molecules = 0.498 moles H2

From the balanced equation, we see that 1 mole H2 produces 2 moles HF.  Therefore, we can now find the theoretical mass of HF produced from 0.498 moles H2:

0.498 moles H2 x 2 moles HF/1 mol H2 = 0.996 moles HF formed.

The molar mass of HF = 20.01 g/mole, thus...

0.996 moles HF x 20.01 g/mole = 19.93 g HF = 20. g HF formed (to 2 significant figures)

What is the property of water, powdered drink mix, and sugar after mixing
MArishka [77]
When all ingredients are mixed the 2 solids are dissolved into the water making it all liquid but the taste is still there. The drink mix gives it a little flavor and the sugar makes it sweet. The water is there to make it a liquid, it all turns out to be a colored liquid. Hope this helped! :)

If a wave has a wavelength of 13 meters and a period of 0.005, what's the velocity of the wave? A. 2,600 m/s B. 260 m/s C. 1,300
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

V = 2600ms⁻¹

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Wavelength(λ) = 13meters

Period (T) = 0.005s

Period(T) is the time it takes for a full cycle of vibration to pass through. It's unit is in seconds (s)

The Velocity of waves is expressed as:

V = fλ

Where f = frequency(s⁻¹)

Frequency of a wave is the number of waves that passes through a point per unit time

f = 1/T

Where T is the period

We can therefore express Velocity of waves as a function of period

V = λ/T

Inputing the parameters, we have:

V = 13m / 0.005s

V = 2600ms⁻¹
