Answer:

pH = 5.06, solution is acidic

Explanation:

pH = - log [H+]

we are given, [H+] as 8.7 x 10^-6M

Therefore;

pH = - log (8.7 x 10^-6 M)

= 5.06

pH = 5.06

But a solution with a pH of, 1-6 is acidic, while a pH of 7 is neutral and that of 8-14 is basic.

Thus; a pH of 5.06 is acidic

Which of the following is not a benefit of using a scientific model?

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

Benifits of scientific modeling

Explanation:

When students are engaged in scientific modeling, they are able to notice patterns and develop and revise representations that become useful models to predict and explain--making their own scientific knowledge stronger, helping them to think critically, and helping them know more about the nature of science.

What is the molar concentration of HBr if 25 mL of the acid is titrated 15.3 mL of 0.5 M KOH?

kherson [118]

Using the titration formula, we get that:

(concentration of HBr)(25)=(0.5)(15.3)

This means the molar concentration of HBr is (0.5)(15.3)/25 = 0.31 M

Bromine (Br2) is produced by reacting HBr with O2, with water as a byproduct. The O2 is part of an air (21 mol % O2, 79 mol % N2

Karolina [17]

Answer:

The mole fractions:

$x_{HBr}=\frac{100mol}{318.5}=0.314$

$x_{Br_2}=\frac{78mol}{318.5}=0.245$

$x_{H_2O}=\frac{78mol}{318.5}=0.245$

$x_{O_2}=\frac{62.5mol}{318.5}=0.196$

Explanation:

The reaction described is:

$2 HBr (g) + 1/2 O_2 (g) \longrightarrow Br_2 (g) + H_2O (g)$

The limiting reactant is the HBr (oxygen is in excess).

a) The mass (in moles) balance for this sistem:

$n_{Br_2}=\frac{ 1 mol Br_2}{1 mol HBr} *n_{HBr}*0.78$

(the 0.78 is because of the fractional conversion)

$n_{O_2}=\frac{ 0.5 mol O_2}{1 mol HBr} *n_{HBr}*1.25$

(the 1.25 is because of the oxygen excess)

$n_{H_2O}=\frac{ 1 mol H_2O}{1 mol Br_2} *n_{Br_2}$

There is only one degree of freedom in this sistem, you can either deffine the moles of HBr you have or the moles of Br2 you want to produce. The other variables are all linked by the equations above.

b) Base of calculation 100 mol of HBr:

$nn_{HBr}=100 mol HBr$
