Equal volumes of 0.1m naoh and 0.1m hcl are thoroughly mixed. the resulting solution has a ph closest to

son4ous [18]

Lets assume x volume of NaOH and x volume of HCl are added together.
NaOH ---> Na⁺ + OH⁻
NaOH is a strong base therefore it completely ionizes and releases OH⁻ ions into the medium
HCl ---> H⁺ + Cl⁻
HCl is a strong base and completely ionizes and releases H⁺ ions in to the medium. number of NaOH moles in 1 L - 0.1 mol
Therefore in x L - 0.1 /1 * x = 0.1x moles of NaOH present
Similarly in HCl x L contains - 0.1x moles of HCl
H⁺ + OH⁻ ---> H₂O
Due to complete ionisation, 0.1x moles of H⁺ ions and 0.1x moles of OH⁻ ions react to form 0.1x moles of H₂O. Therefore all H⁺ and OH⁻are completely used up and yield water molecules.
Then at this point the H⁺ and OH⁻ ions in the medium come from the weak dissociation of water. This is equivalent to 1 x 10⁻⁷M
pH = -log [H⁺]
pH = -log [10⁻⁷]
pH = 7
pH is therefore equals to 7 which means the solution is neutral

A sample of an ideal gas has a volume of 2.21 L at 282 K and 1.03 atm. Calculate the pressure when the volume is 1.84 L

PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

1.33 atm

Explanation:

use general gas equation P1 V1/ T1 = P2 V2/ T2

rearrange and make P2 the subject then solve,it should give you 1.33 atm

The balanced equation for combustion in an acetylene torch is shown below: 2C2H2 + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O The acetylene tank contains

andriy [413]

Answer: 67.2 moles

Explanation: $2C_2H5+5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+2H_2O$

According to the given balanced equation, 2 moles of acetylene $C_2H_2$ combine with 5 moles of oxygen $O_2$ to produce 4 moles of carbon dioxide $CO_2$ .

Thus if 2 moles of acetylene $C_2H_2$ combine with = 5 moles of oxygen $O_2$

35 moles of acetylene $C_2H_2$ combine with= $\frac{5}{2}\times {35}=87.5$ moles of oxygen $O_2$

But as only 84 moles of oxygen are available, acetylene is not a limiting reagent.

5 moles of oxygen $O_2$ reacts with = 2 moles of acetylene $C_2H_2$

84 moles of oxygen $O_2$ reacts with= $\frac{2}{5}\times {84}=33.6$ moles of acetylene $C_2H_2$

Thus Oxygen is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of products. Acetylene is excess reagent as it is present in excess.

2 moles of acetylene $C_2H_2$ produce= 4 moles of carbon dioxide $CO_2$ .

33.6 moles of acetylene $C_2H_2$ produce= $\frac{4}{2}\times {33.6}=67.2$ moles of of carbon dioxide $CO_2$ .
