An analytical chemist weighs out 0.093g of an unknown monoprotic acid into a 250mL volumetric flask and dilutes to the mark with

distilled water. He then titrates this solution with 0.1600M NaOH solution. When the titration reaches the equivalence point, the chemist finds he has added 6.5mL of NaOH solution. Calculate the molar mass of the unknown acid. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

The molar mass of the unknown acid is 89 g/mol

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> The balanced equation

HA(aq) + NaOH(aq) → NaA(aq) + H2O(l)

It takes 1 mole of NaOH to neutralize 1 mole of the triprotic acid. This is called the reaction stoichiometry.

<u>Step 2:</u> Data given

Mass of the acid = 0.093 grams

volume = 250 mL

titrates with 0.16 M NaOH

adds 6.5 mL NaOH

<u>Step 3: </u>Calculate moles of NaOH

We know the concentration and volume of NaOH needed to neutralize the acid.

By determining the moles of NaOH in that volume in liters (95.9mL=0.0959L), the moles of acid in the original sample can be determined from the reaction stoichiometry.

Moles = Molarity * Volume

Moles = 0.16 M * 0.0065 L

Moles = 0.00104 moles NaOH

<u>Step 4: </u>Calculate moles of the unknown acid:

It takes 1 mole of NaOH to neutralize 1 mole of the triprotic acid. This is called the reaction stoichiometry.

For 0.00104 moles NaOH we have 0.00104 moles of HA

<u>Step 5: </u>Calculate the molar mass of the acid

Molar mass Ha = Mass Ha / moles Ha

Molar mass Ha = 0.093 grams / 0.00104 moles

Molar mass Ha = 89.42 g/mol ≈89 g/mol

The molar mass of the unknown acid is 89 g/mol

Consider 2 Al + 6 HCl → 2 AlCl3 + 3 H2 , the reaction of Al with HCl to produce hydrogen gas. What is the pressure of H2 if the
Margaret [11]

Answer : The pressure of hydrogen gas is 8.96 atm.

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is:

2Al+6HCl\rightarrow 2AlCl_3+3H_2

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, 2 moles of Al react to give 3 moles of H_2 gas

So, 4.50 moles of Al react to give \frac{3}{2}\times 4.50=6.75 moles of H_2 gas

Now we have to calculate the moles of H_2 gas when percent yield is 75.4.

\text{The moles of }H_2=75.4\% \times 6.75=\frac{75.4}{100}\times 6.75=5.09moles

Now we have to calculate the pressure of H_2 gas.

Using ideal gas equation :

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of hydrogen gas = ?

V = Volume of the hydrogen gas = 14.0 L

n = number of moles of hydrogen gas = 5.09 moles

R = Gas constant = 0.0821L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of hydrogen gas = 300 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

P\times 14.0L=5.09mol\times 0.0821L.atm/mol.K\times 300K\\\\P=8.96atm

Therefore, the pressure of hydrogen gas is 8.96 atm.

How many grams of oxygen are produced when 1.05 moles of hydrogen gas is<br> produced?
vivado [14]

Answer:

1.058337 grams of hydrogen and 2H2 + O2 ==> 2H2O hydrogen peroxide

mols H2 = grams/molar mass

Using the coefficients in the balanced equation, convert mols H2 to mols O2.

Now convert mols O2 to grams. That's grams mols O2 x molar mass O2.

and it could also produce H2O water but no air but it could make other things

Calculate the final Celsius temperature when 634 L at 21 °C is compressed to 307 L.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

- 130.64°C.

Explanation:

  • We can use the general law of ideal gas:<em> PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n and P are constant, and have two different values of V and T:

<em>V₁T₂ = V₂T₁</em>

<em></em>

V₁ = 634.0 L, T₁ = 21.0°C + 273 = 294.0 K.

V₂ = 307.0 L, T₂ = ??? K.

<em>∴ T₂ = V₂T₁/V₁ </em>= (307.0 L)(294.0 K)/(634.0 L) = <em>142.36 K.</em>

<em>∴ T₂(°C) = 142.36 K - 273 = - 130.64°C.</em>
