Step 1) identify the solvent and solute
      solvent= H2O 
      solute= NaOH
Step 2) Assume that there are 100 grams total. Assume that the percent of the compound present is the number of grams present as well
           100 g total
          16g NaOH 
            84g H20 
Step 3) convert grams to moles 
          84g H2O =4.64 mol H2O 
          19 g NaOH = 0.400 mol NaOH 
Step 4) mole fraction = moles A/(mol A + mol B +....) 
          X= 0.400/(0.400 + 4.64) = 0.079  (no units) 
Step 5) convert g of solvent to kg
        84 g H2O = 0.084 kg 
Step 6) molality = moles of solute/ kg of solvent 
           molality = 0.400 mol NaOH/ 0.084 kg H2O 
           molality=  4.76 m

For the reaction, Cl2 + 2KBr --> 2KCl + Br2, how many moles of potassium chloride, KCl, are produced from 102g of potassium b
Sedaia [141]

Solution :

From the balanced chemical equation, we can say that 1 moles of KBr will produce 1 moles of KCl .

Moles of KBr in 102 g of potassium bromide.

n = 102/119.002

n = 0.86 mole.

So, number of miles of KCl produced are also 0.86 mole.

Mass of KCl produced :

m = 0.86 \times Molar \  mass \ of \  KCl\\\\m = 0.86 \times 74.5 \ gram \\\\m = 64.07\  gram

Hence, this is the required solution.

Answer:

Heat is converted completely into work during isothermal expansion

Explanation:

first law:

  • ΔU = Q + W

∴ ΔU = CvΔT = 0....isothermal

⇒ Q = - W

10.0 ml of 1.00 M HCl neutralized 20.0 ml of a NaOH solution. What was the molarity of the NaOH?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

0.500 M

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the neutralization reaction is as follows

NaOH + HCl —> NaCl + H2O

Molar ratio of NaOH to HCl is 1:1

Number of moles of NaOH reacted is equal to the number of HCl moles

We can use the following equation

c1v1 = c2v2

Where c1 is concentration and v1 is volume of HCl

c2 is concentration and v2 is volume of NaOH

Substituting the values

1.00 M x 10.0 mL = c2 x 20.0 mL

c2 = 0.500 M

Concentration of NaOH is 0.500 M
