More H+ and F would be produced.

Option D.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Hydrofluoric acid is one of the strong acid, but not as strong as hydrogen chloride. This is because the fluorine is much small atom which strongly attracts the Electron of hydrogen, but also exhibits covalent bond.

So in solution, hydrogen fluoride partially breaks into hydrogen ions and fluoride ions.

So when in solution, they exhibit an equilibrium between the HF and hydrogen ions and fluoride ions. So when more amounts of hydrogen fluoride is added to solution, the concentration of hydrogen fluoride increases in solution. This shifts the reaction to the reactant side, and hence more dissociation of the hydrogen and fluoride ions will occur and this will produce more hydrogen ions and fluoride ions.

which of these solutions has the lowest freezing point? 0.25 m nacl 0.5 m nacl 1.0 m nacl 1.5 m nacl 2.0 m nacl

Alinara [238K]

The more particles (ions or molecules) that you can put into solution, the lower the freezing point.

the answer is E. 2.0 M nacl

Ammonia (NH3) is one of the most common chemicals produced in the united states. it is used to make fertilizer and other product

Greeley [361]

Answer:

a) N2 is the limiting reactant

b) 1215.9 grams NH3

c) 2283.6 grams H2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of N2 = 1000 grams

Molar mass N2 = 28 g/mol

Mass of H2 = 2500 grams

Molar mass H2 = 2.02 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

N2(g) +3H2(g) → 2NH3(g)

Step 3: Calculate moles N2

Moles N2 = mass N2 / molar mass N2

Moles N2 = 1000 grams / 28.0 g/mol

Moles N2 = 35.7 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles H2

Moles H2 = 2500 grams / 2.02 g/mol

Moles H2 = 1237.6 moles

Step 5: Calculate limiting reactant

For 1 mol N2 we need 3 moles H2 to produce 2 moles NH3

N2 is the limiting reactant. There will be consumed 35.7 moles.

H2 is in excess. There will react 3*35.7 = 107.1 moles

There will remain 1237.6 - 107.1= 1130.5 moles H2

This is 1130.5 * 2.2 = 2283.6 grams H2

Step 6: Calculate moles NH3

For 1 mol N2 we need 3 moles H2 to produce 2 moles NH3

For 35.7 moles N2 we'll have 2*35.7 = 71.4 moles NH3

Step 7: Calculate mass NH3

Mass NH3 = moles NH3 * molar mass NH3

Mass NH3 = 71.4 moles * 17.03 g/mol

Mass NH3 = 1215.9 grams NH3

What are the four points of Dalton's Theory?

WARRIOR [948]

1. Elements are composed of atoms that are indestructible

2. All atoms of a given element are identical; same size/mass/chemical properties

3. Atoms of 1 element are different from the atoms of other elements

4. Compounds are composed of atoms with more than 1 element. The relative number of atoms for each element are of a given compound are always going to be the same.

(Extra one) 5. Chemical reactions are only ever going involve the rearrangement of the atoms. Atoms are not created/destroyed during the chemical reactions. (Law of Conservation of Mass: nothing can ever be created or destroyed.)
