Answer:
Its pH value increases.
Explanation:
pH is the measure of alkalinity or acidity of a compound.
pH = - log [H+]
and pH + pOH = 14
where pOH is the measure of basicity of a solution, given by -log[OH-]
As a solution gets more basic that is higher [OH-], the pH increases, and on the other hand, as the pH of a solution decreases by one pH unit, the concentration of H+ increases by ten times.
Number of moles in the K2SO4 sample
= (16/1000)*1.04= 0.01664 mol
Number of moles in the Ba(NO3)2 sample
= (14.3/1000*0.880)= 0.01258 mol
Since the reaction is a 1:1 ratio between the two reactants, the limiting reagent is the one containing a smaller number of moles, namely Ba(NO3)2.
The molecular mass of BaSO4 is 137.3+(32.06+4*16.00)=233.4
Therefore the theoretical yield of Barium Sulphate is
233.4*0.01258=2.937 g
Actual yield = 2.60 g (given)
Therefore the percentage yield = 2.60/2.937=88.54%
Answer:
1. the limiting reagent is Barium Nitrate (Ba(NO3)2)
2. the theoretical yield is 2.94 g
3. the percentage yield is 88.5%
I apologize for the mistake previous to this update.
Active sites in enzymes are where substrates bind. Once they bind, a catalytic reaction occurs as a complex between substrate and enzyme is formed. Enzymes are termed as biocatalysts or simply catalysts since they speed up the catalytic reaction. After the reaction, they simply revert back to their original form, after having adjusted to fit with substrate.
