<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Bases are named like ionic compounds.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • <em><u>Ionic compounds are compounds that are formed as a result of ionic bond between metal and non-metal.</u></em> This occurs as a result of transfer of electrons between the atoms involved where one losses electrons to form a cation and the other gains electrons to form an anion.
  • <em><u>Most bases like the ionic compounds they contain a cation and an anion, which forms a compound. </u></em>
  • An example would be: <em><u>KOH (potassium hydroxide) and Ca(OH)2 is calcium hydroxide.</u></em>

Ammonia (NH3) clouds are present around some planets. Calculate the number of grams of ammonia produced by the reaction of 5.4 g
Komok [63]

Answer:

30.4 g. NH3

Explanation:

This problem tells us that the hydrogen (H2) is the limiting reactant, as there is "an excess of nitrogen." Using stoichiometry (the relationship between the various species of the equation), we can see that for every 3 moles of H2 consumed, 2 moles of NH3 are produced.

But before we can use that relationship to find the number of grams of ammonia produced, we need to convert the given grams of hydrogen into moles:

5.4 g x [1 mol H2/(1.008x2 g.)] = 2.67857 mol H2 (not using significant figures yet; want to be as accurate as possible)

Now, we can use the relationship between H2 and NH3.

2.67857 mol H2 x (2 mol NH3/3 mol H2) = 1.7857 mol NH3

Now, we have the number of moles of ammonia produced, but the answer asks us for grams. Use the molar mass of ammonia to convert.

1.7857 mol NH3 x 17.034 g. NH3/mol NH3 = 30.4 g. NH3 (used a default # of 3 sig figs)

If 100 ml of a 0.5 M HCI Solution is diluted with water to 1000ml, what is the new concetration?
Vesna [10]

Answer:

0.05\ \text{M HCl}

Explanation:

V_1 = Initial volume = 100 mL

V_2 = Final volume = 1000 mL

M_1 = Initial concentration = 0.5 M

M_2 = Final concentration

We have the relation

\dfrac{M_1}{M_2}=\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}\\\Rightarrow M_2=M_1\dfrac{V_1}{V_2}\\\Rightarrow M_2=0.5\times \dfrac{100}{1000}\\\Rightarrow M_2=0.05\ \text{M HCl}

The new concentration is 0.05\ \text{M HCl}.
