The metal sodium is obtained by electrolysis of common table salt (sodium chloride, nacl). how much sodium chloride needs to be

decomposed to obtain 2500 g of sodium?

Solve first for the number of moles of sodium given that the mass is 2500 g by dividing the given mass by the molar mass of sodium. 
                         moles sodium = 2500 g / 23 g/mol
                               moles sodium = 108.7 moles
Since in every mole of NaCl, there is only one mole of sodium then, we conclude that there are also 108.7 moles of NaCl. Multiplying the number of moles to the molar mass of sodium chloride (58.44), the answer would be 6,352.17 grams.

What does lower case k stand for?
DaniilM [7]
Just for more clarification, lowercase k is the rate constant. Uppercase K is the equilibrium constant. You can actually use k to find K (equilibrium constant). K=k/k' This means that the equilibrium constant is the rate constant of the forward reaction divided by the rate constant of the reverse reaction

If the mass of the baking soda before the reaction was 10 grams and the mass of the vinegar was 15 grams and all of the baking s
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

8.946g NaHCO₃,

14.475g H₂O,

1.025g CH₃COO⁻Na⁺,

0.500g CO₂.

Explanation:

Baking soda (NaHCO₃) reacts with vinegar (CH₃COOH 5%) producing  CH₃COO⁻Na⁺, H₂O and CO₂, thus:

NaHCO₃ + CH₃COOH → CH₃COO⁻Na⁺ + H₂O + CO₂

10g of NaHCO₃ are:

10g × (1mol / 84g) = 0.119 moles NaHCO₃

Moles of CH₃COOH in 15g of vinegar are:

15g vinegar × 5% = 0.75g CH₃COOH × (1mol / 60g) = 0.0125moles CH₃ COOH

After reaction, moles of NaHCO₃ that remains are:

0.119mol - 0.0125mol = <em>0.1065 moles NaHCO₃</em>

In mass:

0.1065mol ₓ (84g / 1mol) = <em>8.946g NaHCO₃</em>

Acetic acid reacts completely producing  0.0125moles of CH₃COO⁻Na⁺, water and CO₂. In mass:

CH₃COO⁻Na⁺ = 0.0125mol ₓ (82.03g / 1mol) = <em>1.025g CH₃COO⁻Na⁺</em>

H₂O = 0.0125mol ₓ (18.01g / 1mol) = <em>0.225g H₂O</em>

CO₂ = 0.0125mol ₓ (40g / 1mol) = <em>0.500g CO₂</em>

Now, 95% of vinegar is water (Doesn't react), that is:

15g × 95% = 14.25g H₂O. Total mass of water is:

14.25g + 0.225g = <em>14.475g H₂O</em>

<em></em>

Total mass is:

8.946g + 14.475g H₂O + 1.025g + 0.500g ≈ 25g. The same than initial mass following law of conservation of matter.

A mixture of 18 % 18% disinfectant solution is to be made from 16 % 16% and 23 % 23% disinfectant solutions. How much of each so
jeka94

Answer: 20 gallons of 16% and 8 gallons of 23% solution is usedfor 28 gallons of the 18 % solution.

Explanation:

According to the dilution law,

C_1V_1+C_2V_2=C_3V_3

where,

C_1 = concentration of ist disinfectant solution = 16 %

V_1 = volume of pure acid solution = x gallons

C_2 = concentration of another disinfectant solution= 23%

V_2 = volume of another acid solution= (28-x) gallons

C_3 = concentration of resulting disinfectant solution = 18 %

V_1 = volume of resulting acid solution = 28 gallons

16\times x+23\times (28-x)=18\times 28

x=20galllons

(28-x) = (28-20) = 8 gallons

Thus 20 gallons of 16% and 8 gallons of 23% solution is usedfor 28 gallons of the 18 % solution.
