Which compound is more soluble in an acidic solution than in a neutral solution? agcl hgbr2 baco3 pbi2?

1 answer:

7 0

Answer is: BaCO₃ (barium carbonate).
barium carbonate is white powder with low solubility in water, but good solubility in acids (with the exception of sulfuric acid), because it forms solunle salts and carbonic acid (decomposes on carbon(IV) oxide and water).
For example if we add hydrochloric acid in barium carbonate:
BaCO₃(s) + 2HCl(aq) → BaCl₂(aq) + H₂CO₃(aq).

Which of the following is not true about limiting and excess reagents?

Bogdan [553]

Answer : The incorrect option is, (d) The reactant that was the smallest given mass is the limiting reagent.

Explanation :

Limiting reagent : It is the reagent that is completely consumed in the chemical reaction when the chemical reaction is complete. No amount is left after the reaction is complete. The amount of product obtained is determined by the limiting reagent. A balanced equation is necessary to determine which reactant is limiting reagent.

Excess reagent : It is the reagent that are not completely consumed in the chemical reaction. That means the reagent is in excess amount. Some amount of the excess reagent is left over after the reaction is complete.

From this we conclude that the options, A, B and C are correct. While the option D is incorrect.

Option D is incorrect because it is not necessary the reactant that was the smallest given mass is the limiting reagent but it is judge by the number of moles present in the reaction.

Hence, the incorrect option is, (d)

For each process, predict the sign on the entropy change and write a sentence or two to explain how to make this prediction with

MrRa [10]

Answer: a. A solid melts: $\Delta S=+ve$

b. a vapor is converted to solid: $\Delta S=-ve$

c. a liquid freezes: $\Delta S=-ve$

d. A solid sublimes: $\Delta S=+ve$

e. a vapor condenses to liquid : $\Delta S=-ve$

f. a liquid boils: $\Delta S=+ve$

g. dissolving a tablespoon of salt in water: $\Delta S=+ve$

h. combustion of gasoline: $\Delta S=+ve$

Explanation:

Entropy is the measure of randomness or disorder of a system. If a system moves from an ordered arrangement to a disordered arrangement, the entropy change is negative and vice versa.

a. A solid melts: The solid is converting to liquid, thus the randomness is increasing as the molecules are moving away and the intermolecular forces are getting weaker. Thus the entropy change $(\Delta S)$ is positive.

b. a vapor is converted to solid: The gas is converting to solid, thus the randomness is decreasing as the molecules are moving close and the intermolecular forces are getting stronger Thus the entropy change $(\Delta S)$ is negative.

c. a liquid freezes: The liquid is converting to solid, thus the randomness is decreasing as the molecules are moving close and the intermolecular forces are getting stronger. Thus the entropy change $(\Delta S)$ is negative.

d. A solid sublimes: The solid is converting to gas, thus the randomness is increasing as the molecules are moving away and the intermolecular forces are getting weaker. Thus the entropy change $(\Delta S)$ is positive.

e. a vapor condenses to liquid : The gas is converting to liquid, thus the randomness is decreasing as the molecules are moving close and the intermolecular forces are getting stronger. Thus the entropy change $(\Delta S)$ is negative.

f. a liquid boils: The liquid is converting to gas, thus the randomness is increasing as the molecules are moving away and the intermolecular forces are getting weaker. Thus the entropy change $(\Delta S)$ is positive.

g. dissolving a tablespoon of salt in water: The solid is converting to ions , thus the randomness is increasing as the ions can move freely. Thus the entropy change $(\Delta S)$ is positive.

h. combustion of gasoline: The liquid is converting to gas, thus the randomness is increasing as the molecules are moving away and the intermolecular forces are getting weaker. Thus the entropy change $(\Delta S)$ is positive.

What is the percent composition of phosphoric acid H3PO4

Agata [3.3K]

Hey there!:

Molar mass H3PO4 = 97.9952 g/mol

Atomic Masses :

H = 1.00794 a.m.u

P = 30.973762 a.m.u

O = 15.9994 a.m.u

H % = [ ( 1.00794 * 3 ) / 97.9952 ] * 100

H% = 3.0857 %

P % = [ ( 30.973762 * 1 ) / 97.9952 ] * 100

P% = 31.6074 %

O % = [ ( 15.9994 * 4 ) / 97.9952 ] * 100

O% = 65.3069 %

Hope this helps!
