Explanation:

Step 1:

A good first step for a problem like this is to write down the chemical formula and balance it.

It appears here that we have 10.5 mL of vinegar, which IS acetic acid, and 19.13 mL of 0.460 M NaOH. That will give us the following balanced chemical equation:

CH3COOH + NaOH ------> NaCH3COO + H2O

All of the constituents come out to a value of 1, conveniently.

Step 2:

Since all of our stoichiometric coefficients are one, we can use a shortcut to answer this equation. I don't know if it has a name, but I just call it the titration formula. It goes something like this:

M1 * V1 = M2 * V2

M stands for Molarity and V stands for volume. 1 and 2 being the before the reaction and after the reaction.

So, our M1 for this is going to be what the question says was used for this titration. That's 0.460M NaOH.

Our V1 is going to be the initial volume of the sample, which was 10.5 mL

Our V2 is going to be 19.13, which is the volume when we're finished.

It's clear that we don't know M2, so let's find it.

Keep in mind that it's easier to convert to liters pretty much always, so I've done that by dividing the mL values each by 1000.

Using some algebra, we can see that we now have:

0.460 M * 0.0105 L = x M * 0.01913 L

Which goes to:

\frac{0.00483mol}{0.01913L} = 0.252 M

<h3>So our M2, the molar concentration of acetic acid in this vinegar, is equal to 0.252 M. </h3>

Answer:

B.They do not react chemically

Explanation:

This is because all noble gases haves full outer shell therefore they don’t participate in bonding.They are referred to as inert which means unreactive.

How did scientists solve the nitrogen problem?
taurus [48]

Unfortunately, we have not fully solved the 'nitrogen problem'. To do this, we must halve the amount of nitrogen we dump into the environment by mid-century or our ecosystems will face epidemics of toxic tides, lifeless rivers, and dead oceans. And that to do that will require, among other things, almost doubling the efficiency of nitrogen use on the world’s farms.

Balance the following equation in acidic conditions Phases are optional. S2O3 2- + Cu 2+ ---&gt; S4O6 2- + Cu+
jonny [76]

To balance the the chemical reaction, the number of moles per element is balance is both side of the reaction and also the charge in both sides of the reation. to balnce the reaction:

S2O3 2- + Cu 2+ ---> S4O6 2- + Cu+

2S2O3 2- + Cu 2+ ---> S4O6 2- + Cu+ + e

What are the merits of Mendeleev's periodic table? ​
german

Answer:

This law states that the physical and chemical properties of the elements are the periodic function of their atomic masses. This means that when the elements are arranged in the order of their increasing atomic masses, the elements with similar properties recur at regular intervals.
