Which of the following is the best description of how electrons are transferred in an ionic bond?

1 answer:

7 0

The answer which is the best description of how electrons are transferred in an ionic bond is - A metal atom loses electrons and a nonmetal atom gains electrons. While forming an ionic bond the metal atom loses electrons to gain a positive charge whereas the non-metal atom gains these electrons and gets a negative charge and then these charges attract and they bond together forming the ionic bond.

A 5.00-g sample of copper metal at 25.0 °C is heated by the addition of 133 J of energy. The final temperature of the copper is

vekshin1

Answer: The final temperature of the copper is 95°C.

Explanation:

To calculate the final temperature for the given amount of heat absorbed, we use the equation:

$Q= m\times c\times \Delta T$

Q = heat absorbed = +133 J (heat is added to the system)

m = mass of copper = 5.00 g

c = specific heat capacity of copper = 0.38 J/g ° C

$\Delta T={\text{Change in temperature}}=T_2-T_1$

$T_1=25^oC$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$+133J=5.00g\times 0.38J/g^oC\times (T_2-25)\\\\T_2=95^oC$

Hence, the final temperature of the copper is 95°C.

A 50.0-ml sample of 0.50 m hcl is titrated with 0.50 m naoh. what is the ph of the solution after 28.0 ml of naoh have been adde

hram777 [196]

The pH of the solution after addition of 28 mL of NaOH is added to HCl is $\boxed{{\text{0}}{\text{.85}}}$ .

Further Explanation:

The proportion of substance in the mixture is called concentration. The most commonly used concentration terms are as follows:

1. Molarity (M)

2. Molality (m)

3. Mole fraction (X)

4. Parts per million (ppm)

5. Mass percent ((w/w) %)

6. Volume percent ((v/v) %)

Molarity is a concentration term that is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved in one litre of the solution. It is denoted by M and its unit is mol/L.

The formula to calculate the molarity of the solution is as follows:

${\text{Molarity of solution}}=\dfrac{{{\text{Moles}}\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{solute}}}}{{{\text{Volume }}\left({\text{L}} \riht){\text{ of solution}}}}$

......(1)

Rearrange equation (1) to calculate the moles of solute.

${\text{Moles}}\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{solute}}=\left( {{\text{Molarity of solution}}}\right)\left({{\text{Volume of solution}}}\right)$ ......(2)

Substitute 0.50 M for the molarity of solution and 50 mL for the volume of solution in equation (2) to calculate the moles of HCl.

$\begin{aligned}{\text{Moles}}\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{HCl}}&= \left({{\text{0}}{\text{.50 M}}}\right)\left( {{\text{50 mL}}} \right)\left( {\frac{{{\text{1}}{{\text{0}}^{ - 3}}{\text{ L}}}}{{{\text{1 mL}}}}} \right)\\&= 0.02{\text{5 mol}}\\\end{aligned}$

Substitute 0.50 M for the molarity of solution and 28 mL for the volume of solution in equation (2) to calculate the moles of NaOH.

$\begin{aligned}{\text{Moles}}\;{\text{of}}\;{\text{NaOH}}&=\left( {{\text{0}}{\text{.50 M}}} \right)\left( {{\text{28 mL}}} \right)\left( {\frac{{{\text{1}}{{\text{0}}^{ - 3}}{\text{ L}}}}{{{\text{1 mL}}}}}\right)\\&= 0.014{\text{ mol}}\\\end{aligned}$

The reaction between HCl and NaOH occurs as follows:

${\text{NaOH}} + {\text{HCl}} \to {\text{NaCl}} + {{\text{H}}_2}{\text{O}}$

The balanced chemical reaction indicates that one mole of NaOH reacts with one mole of HCl. So the amount of remaining HCl can be calculated as follows:

$\begin{aligned}{\text{Amount of HCl remaining}}&= 0.02{\text{5 mol}} - 0.01{\text{4 mol}}\\&= {\text{0}}{\text{.011 mol}} \\\end{aligned}$

The volume after the addition of NaOH can be calculated as follows:

$\begin{aligned}{\text{Volume of solution}} &= {\text{50 mL}} + {\text{28 mL}}\\&= {\text{78 mL}}\\\end{aligned}$

Substitute 0.011 mol for the amount of solute and 78 mL for the volume of solution in equation (1) to calculate the molarity of new HCl solution.

$\begin{aligned}{\text{Molarity of new HCl solution}}&= \left({{\text{0}}{\text{.011 mol}}} \right)\left( {\frac{1}{{{\text{78 mL}}}}}\right)\left( {\frac{{{\text{1 mL}}}}{{{{10}^{ - 3}}\;{\text{L}}}}} \right)\\&= 0.1410{\text{2 M}}\\&\approx {\text{0}}{\text{.141 M}}\\\end{aligned}$

pH:

The acidic strength of an acid can be determined by pH value. The negative logarithm of hydronium ion concentration is defined as pH of the solution. Lower the pH value of an acid, the stronger will be the acid. Acidic solutions are likely to have pH less than 7. Basic or alkaline solutions have pH more than 7. Neutral solutions have pH equal to 7.

The formula to calculate pH of an acid is as follows:

${\text{pH}}=- {\text{log}}\left[ {{{\text{H}}^ + }}\right]$ ......(3)

Here,

$\left[{{{\text{H}}^ + }}\right]$ is hydrogen ion concentration.

HCl is a strong acid so it dissociates completely. So the concentration of also becomes 0.141 M.

Substitute 0.141 M for $\left[{{{\text{H}}^ + }}\right]$ in equation (3).

$\begin{aligned}{\text{pH}}&= - {\text{log}}\left({0.141} \right)\\&=0.85\\\end{aligned}$

So the pH of the solution is 0.85.
