Answer:

To find a base by its formula, does it end in COO-

A base never ens with COOH

Explanation:

According to Bronsted Acid - Base theory : When an acid and base reacts with each other , the acid form its conjugate base and base will form its conjugate acid because of exchange of proton .

If HA = acid and B = base react each other then they generate their conjugate Base (A-) and acid (HB+) respectively .

The equation is represented as :

HA+B\rightleftharpoons A^{-}+HB^{+}

Here A- is conjugate base of HA acid

HB+ is conjugate acid of base B

COOH group is the carboxylic acid group = acid

Suppose A carboxylic acid RCOOH is added in water(H2O)

RCOOH + H_{2}O\rightleftharpoons RCOO^{-}+H^{+}

Here

RCOOH = Acid and its conjugate -base is RCOO-

Hence A Base end with formula COO-

COOH is always acid

What is the final volume (l) of a 10.0 l system that has the pressure quartered?
mihalych1998 [28]
According to Boyle's Law, P1V1 = P2V2

where P1 and V1 are initial pressure and volume respectively. P2 and V2 are final pressure and volume receptively.

Given: P2 = 4 P1 and V1 = 10.0l

∴ V2 = 2.5 l

Answer: Final volume of system is 2.5 l

How many milliliters of 0.1 m hcl is required to react with 0.15g sodium carbonate (na2co3?
docker41 [41]
1) Write the balanced chemical equation

     2HCl + Na2 CO3 ----------> 2NaCl + H2CO3

2) Write the molar ratios:

    2 mol HCl : 1 mol Na2CO3 : 2 mol NaCl : 1 mol H2CO3

3) Convert 0.15g of sodium carbonate to number of moles

3a) Calculate the molar mass of Na2CO3

Na: 2 * 23 g/mol = 46 g/mol

C: 12 g/mol =

O: 3 * 16 g/mol = 48 g/mol

molar mass = 46g/mol + 12g/mol + 48g/mol = 106 g/mol

3b.- Calculate the number of moles of Na2CO3

# moles = grams / molar mass = 0.15 g / 106 g/mol = 0.0014 mol Na2CO3

4) Calculate the number of moles of HCl from the molar proportion:

[0.0014 mol Na2CO3] * [2 mol HCl / 1 mol Na2CO3] = 0.0028 mol HCl

5) Calculate the volume of HCl from the definition of Molarity

Molarity, M = # moles / volume in liters

=> Volume in liters = # moles / M = 0.0028 mol / 0.1 M = 0.028 liters

0.028 liters * 1000 ml / liter = 28 ml.

Answer: 28 mililiters of 0.1 M HCl.
