Answer:

The pH of the solution is 2.26

Explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the pH of an acidic solution having a specific concentration of hydrogen ions.

Generally speaking , pH is the negative logarithm to base 10 of the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution.

Mathematically:

pH = -log[H+]

According to the question, [H+] = 0.005496

pH = -log(0.005496)

pH = 2.26

Hence, the pH of a solution with hydrogen ion concentration of 0.005496 is 2.26. It can be interpreted that this solution is strongly acidic. This is because, the lower in value that they are on the pH scale, the more acidic they are

QveST [7]
<span>Air enters through the nose or mouth (which join to form the nasopharyngeal cavity). The air travels through the trachea which and the trachea splits into two bronchi. The air travels through the bronchi which split into smaller and smaller bronchioles. The tiny bronchioles and the air ends up in the miniscule alveoli, where the oxygen in the air diffuse into the bloodstream. Carbon dioxide diffuse from the bloodstream into the alveoli and the unwanted gas travels in reverse back to the nose and mouth, where it is breathed out.</span>

what is the percent yield of titanium (II) oxide if 20.0 grams of titanium (II) sulfide is reacted with water? The actual yield
earnstyle [38]

Answer : The percent yield of titanium (II) oxide is, 142.5 % and the impurities could have caused the percent yield to be so high.

Explanation : Given,

Mass of titanium(II) sulfide = 20.0 g

Molar mass of titanium(II) sulfide = 79.9 g/mole

Molar mass of titanium(II) oxide = 63.9 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of titanium(II) sulfide.

\text{ Moles of titanium(II) sulfide}=\frac{\text{ Mass of titanium(II) sulfide}}{\text{ Molar mass of titanium(II) sulfide}}=\frac{20.0g}{79.9g/mole}=0.2503moles

Now we have to calculate the moles of titanium(II) oxide.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

TiS+H_2O\rightarrow TiO+H_2S

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of titanium(II) sulfide react to give 1 mole of titanium(II) oxide

So, 0.2503 mole of titanium(II) sulfide react to give 0.2503 mole of titanium(II) oxide

Now we have to calculate the mass of titanium(II) oxide.

\text{ Mass of titanium(II) oxide}=\text{ Moles of titanium(II) oxide}\times \text{ Molar mass of titanium(II) oxide}

\text{ Mass of titanium(II) oxide}=(0.2503moles)\times (63.9g/mole)=15.99g

To calculate the percentage yield of titanium (II) oxide, we use the equation:

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100

Experimental yield of titanium (II) oxide = 22.8 g

Theoretical yield of titanium (II) oxide = 15.99 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ yield of titanium (II) oxide}=\frac{22.8g}{15.99g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of titanium (II) oxide}=142.5\%

Hence, the percent yield of titanium (II) oxide is, 142.5 %

If the percent yields is greater than 100% that means the product of the reaction contains impurities which cause its mass to be greater than it actually.

Calculate the molality of 75.0 grams of MgCl2 (molar mass=95.21 g/mol) dissolved in 500.0 g of solvent.
nordsb [41]

<u>Answer:</u> The molality of magnesium chloride is 1.58 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:

\text{Molality}=\frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}

Where,

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute (magnesium chloride) = 75.0

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute (magnesium chloride) = 95.21 g/mol  

W_{solvent} = Mass of solvent = 500.0 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Molality of }MgCl_2=\frac{75.0\times 1000}{95.21\times 500.0}\\\\\text{Molality of }MgCl_2=1.58m

Hence, the molality of magnesium chloride is 1.58 m

what are simplified definitions of the following words"Synthesis, Decomposition, Single Replacement, or Double Replacement"?
faust18 [17]

Answer:

The Four Major Types of Reactions

Name General Reaction Pattern

Combination or synthesis A + B ----> AB

Decomposition AB ----> A + B

Substitution or Single Replacement A + BC ----> B + AC

Metathesis or Double Displacement AB + CD ----> AD + CB

Combination or Synthesis Reactions Two or more reactants unite to form a single product.

S + O2 ---------> SO2

sulphur oxygen sulphur dioxide

2 S + 3 O2 ---------> 2 SO3

sulphur oxygen sulphur trioxide

2 Fe + O2 ---------> 2 FeO

iron oxygen iron (II) oxide

Decomposition Reactions A single reactant is decomposed or broken down into two or more

products.

CaCO3 ----------> CaO + CO2

calcium carbonate calcium oxide carbon dioxide

2 H2O -----------> 2 H2 + O2

water hydrogen oxygen

2 KClO3 -----------> 2 KCl + 3 O2

potassium chlorate potassium chloride oxygen

Substitution or Single Replacement Reactions A single free element replaces or is substituted for one of the elements in a compound. The free element is more reactive than the one its replaces.

Zn + 2 HCl ----------> H2 + ZnCl2

zinc hydrochloric acid hydrogen zinc chloride

Cu + 2 AgNO3 -----------> 2 Ag + Cu(NO3)2

copper silver nitrate silver copper (II) nitrate

H2 + 2 AgNO3 -----------> 2 Ag + 2 HNO3

hydrogen silver nitrate silver nitric acid

2 Na + 2 H2O -----------> 2 NaOH + H2

sodium water sodium hydroxide hydrogen

Metathesis or Double Displacement Reactions This reaction type can be viewed as an "exchange of partners." For ionic compounds, the positive ion in the first compound combines with the negative ion in the second compound, and the positive ion in the second compound combines with the negative ion in the first compound.

HCl + NaOH -----------> NaCl + HOH

hydrochloric sodium sodium water

acid hydroxide chloride

BaCl2 + 2 AgNO3 ----------> 2 AgCl + Ba(NO3)2

barium silver silver barium

chloride nitrate chloride nitrate

(precipitate)

CaCO3 + 2 HCl -----------> CaCl2 + H2CO3

calcium hydrochloric calcium carbonic

carbonate acid chloride acid

Explanation:

The vast number of chemical reactions can be classified in any number of ways. Under one scheme they can be categorized either as oxidation-reduction (electron transfer) reactions or non-oxidation-reduction reactions. Another completely different but common classification scheme recognizes
