<em>Reasons why a 100% yield is not obtained in actual chemical manufacturing processes may be;</em>

- The reactor has a certain capacity to produce a certain yield  

- There is a limiting reactant that runs out and the reaction can not proceed any further

It may also be because the reaction is reversible or because of loses of desired product during isolation and purification.

Determine the oxidation states of the elements in the compounds listed. None of the oxygen-containing compounds are peroxides or
natka813 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

You need to remember that the oxidation number of H is +1, except when it is in a metal hydrites like NaH, where its oxidation number is -1. Then, the oxidation number of O is -2, but in peroxides is -1. So with these rules you just have to multiply the ox. number with the name of atoms and all the elements in the reaction must sum 0.

Tell me a hypothesis for the corrosion experiment for iron nails?
Nastasia [14]
The more acidic the substance is, the more the iron nails will corrode (this obviously depends on what your experiment is but hope this helped in some way)

What happens to the speed of motion of the particles of a gas when a certain volume of the gas is heated at constant pressure? E
Vitek1552 [10]
As the gas is heated, the particles will begin to move faster. Likewise if you start to cool a gas, the particles will move slower. Because the gas remains at a constant pressure and volume, the particles cannot spread out so they simply move around the container even faster.

Hope this helps :)

A 50.0 mL solution of 0.129 M KOH is titrated with 0.258 M HCl. Calculate the pH of the solution after the addition of each of t
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

A- pH = 13.12

B- pH = 12.91

C- pH = 12.71

D- pH = 12.43

E- pH = 11.55

F- pH = 7

G- pH = 2.46

H- pH = 1.88

Explanation:

This is a titration of a strong base with a strong acid. The neutralization reaction is: KOH (aq) + HCl (aq) →  H₂O(l) + KCl(aq)

Our pH at the equivalence point is 7, because we have made a neutral salt.

To determine the volume at that point we state the formula for titration:

mmoles of base = mmoles of acid

Volume of base  . M of base = Volume of acid . M of acid

50mL . 0.129M = 0.258 M . Volume of acid

Volume of acid = (50mL . 0.129M) / 0.258 M →  25 mL (Point <u>F</u>)

When we add 25 mL of HCl, our pH will be 7.

A- At 0 mL of acid, we only have base.

KOH → K⁺ + OH⁻

[OH⁻] = 0.129 M

To make more easy the operations we will use, mmol.

mol . 1000 = mmoles → mmoles / mL = M

- log 0.129 = 0.889

14 - 0.889 = 13.12

B-  In this case we are adding, (7 mL . 0.258M) = 1.81 mmoles of H⁺

Initially we have  0.129 M . 50 mL = 6.45 mmoles of OH⁻

1.81 mmoles of H⁺ will neutralize, the 6.45 mmoles of OH⁻ so:

6.45 mmol - 1.81 = 4.64 mmoles of OH⁻

This mmoles of OH⁻ are not at 50 mL anymore, because our volume has changed. (Now, we have 50 mL of base + 7 mL of acid) = 57 mL of total volume.

[OH⁻] = 4.64 mmoles / 57 mL = 0.0815 M

- log 0.0815 M = 1.09 → pOH

pH = 14 - pOH → 14 - 1.09 = 12.91

C- In this case we add (12.5 mL . 0.258M) = 3.22 mmoles of H⁺

<em>Our initial mmoles of OH⁻ would not change through all the titration. </em>

Then 6.45 mmoles of OH⁻ are neutralized by 3.22 mmoles of H⁺.

6.45 mmoles of OH⁻ - 3.22 mmoles of H⁺ = 3.23 mmoles of OH⁻

Total volume is: 50 mL of base + 12.5 mL = 62.5 mL

[OH⁻] = 3.23 mmol / 62.5 mL = 0.0517 M

- log  0.0517 = 1.29 → pOH

14 - 1.11 = 12.71

D- We add (18 mL . 0.258M) = 4.64 mmoles of H⁺

6.45 mmoles of OH⁻ are neutralized by 4.64 mmoles of H⁺.

6.45 mmoles of OH⁻ - 4.64 mmoles of H⁺ = 1.81 mmoles of OH⁻

Total volume is: 50 mL of base + 18 mL = 68 mL

[OH⁻] = 1.81 mmol / 68 mL = 0.0265 M

- log  0.0265 = 1.57 → pOH

14 - 1.57 = 12.43

E- We add (24 mL . 0.258M) = 6.19 mmoles of H⁺

6.45 mmoles of OH⁻ are neutralized by 6.19 mmoles of H⁺.

6.45 mmoles of OH⁻ - 6.19 mmoles of H⁺ = 0.26 mmoles of OH⁻

Total volume is: 50 mL of base + 24 mL = 74 mL

[OH⁻] = 0.26 mmol / 74 mL = 3.51×10⁻³ M

- log  3.51×10⁻³  = 2.45 → pOH

14 - 2.45 = 11.55

F- This the equivalence point.

mmoles of OH⁻ = mmoles of H⁺

We add (25 mL . 0.258M) = 6.45 mmoles of H⁺

All the OH⁻ are neutralized.

OH⁻  +  H⁺  ⇄   H₂O              Kw

[OH⁻] = √1×10⁻¹⁴   →  1×10⁻⁷  →  pOH = 7

pH → 14 - 7 = 7

G- In this case we have an excess of H⁻

We add (26 mL . 0.258M ) = 6.71 mmoles of H⁺

We neutralized all the OH⁻ but some H⁺ remain after the equilibrium

6.71 mmoles of H⁺ - 6.45 mmoles of OH⁻ = 0.26 mmoles of H⁺

[H⁺] = 0.26 mmol / Total volume

Total volume is: 50 mL + 26 mL → 76 mL

[H⁺] = 0.26 mmol / 76 mL → 3.42×10⁻³ M

- log 3.42×10⁻³ = 2.46 → pH

H- Now we add (29 mL . 0.258M) = 7.48 mmoles of H⁺

We neutralized all the OH⁻ but some H⁺ remain after the equilibrium

7.48 mmoles of H⁺ - 6.45 mmoles of OH⁻ = 1.03 mmoles of protons

Total volume is 50 mL + 29 mL = 79 mL

[H⁺] = 1.03 mmol / 79 mL → 0.0130 M

- log 0.0130 = 1.88 → pH

After equivalence point, pH will be totally acid, because we always have an excess of protons. Before the equivalence point, pH is basic, because we still have OH⁻ and these hydroxides, will be neutralized through the titration, as we add acid.
