What is the arrhenius definition of a base?

2 answers:

4 0

The Arrhenius definition of acid-base reactions, which was devised by Svante Arrhenius, is a development of the hydrogen theory of acids. ... An Arrhenius base is a substance that dissociates in water to form hydroxide (OH -) ions. In other words, a base increases the concentration of OH - ions in an aqueous solution.

Consider the following chemical reaction:

laiz [17]

Answer:

B. 1.65 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 SO₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ 2 SO₃(g)

Step 2: Calculate the moles of SO₂

The pressure of the gas is 1.20 atm and the temperature 25 °C (298 K). We can calculate the moles using the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

n = P × V / R × T

n = 1.20 atm × 1.50 L / (0.0821 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K = 0.0736 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of SO₃ produced

0.0736 mol SO₂ × 2 mol SO₃/2 mol SO₂ = 0.0736 mol SO₃

Step 4: Calculate the volume occupied by 0.0736 moles of SO₃ at STP

At STP, 1 mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.4 L.

0.0736 mol × 22.4 L/1 mol = 1.65 L

Determine the overall energy change for the reaction between hydrogen and oxygen shown in Question 13. Use Figure 2.

zimovet [89]

Answer:

–500KJ

Explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Heat of reactant (Hr) = 800KJ

Heat of product (Hp) = 300KJ

Enthalphy change (ΔH) =..?

The enthalphy change is simply defined as the difference between the heat of product and the heat of reactant i.e

Enthalphy change = Heat of product – Heat of reactant

ΔH = Hp – Hr

With the above formula, we can easily calculate the enthalphy change as follow

ΔH = Hp – Hr

ΔH = 300 – 800

ΔH = –500KJ.

Therefore, the overall energy change for the reaction between hydrogen and oxygen shown in the diagram above is –500KJ

PbSO4 has a Ksp = 1.3 * 10-8 (mol/L)2.

Oduvanchick [21]

i. The dissolution of PbSO₄ in water entails its ionizing into its constituent ions:

$\mathrm{PbSO_{4}}(aq) \rightleftharpoons \mathrm{Pb^{2+}}(aq)+\mathrm{SO_4^{2-}}(aq).$

---

ii. Given the dissolution of some substance

$xA{(s)} \rightleftharpoons yB{(aq)} + zC{(aq)}$ ,

the Ksp, or the solubility product constant, of the preceding equation takes the general form

$K_{sp} = [B]^y [C]^z$ .

The concentrations of pure solids (like substance A) and liquids are excluded from the equilibrium expression.

So, given our dissociation equation in question i., our Ksp expression would be written as:

$K_{sp} = \mathrm{[Pb^{2+}] [SO_4^{2-}]}$ .

---

iii. Presumably, what we're being asked for here is the molar solubility of PbSO4 (at the standard 25 °C, as Ksp is temperature dependent). We have all the information needed to calculate the molar solubility. Since the Ksp tells us the ratio of equilibrium concentrations of PbSO4 in solution, we can consider either [Pb2+] or [SO4^2-] as equivalent to our molar solubility (since the concentration of either ion is the extent to which solid PbSO4 will dissociate or dissolve in water).

We know that Ksp = [Pb2+][SO4^2-], and we are given the value of the Ksp of for PbSO4 as 1.3 × 10⁻⁸. Since the molar ratio between the two ions are the same, we can use an equivalent variable to represent both:

$1.3 \times 10^{-8} = s \times s = s^2 \\s = \sqrt{1.3 \times 10^{-8}} = 1.14 \times 10^{-4} \text{ mol/L}.$

So, the molar solubility of PbSO4 is 1.1 × 10⁻⁴ mol/L. The answer is given to two significant figures since the Ksp is given to two significant figures.
