Answer:

6,216.684 kilograms of sodium carbonate must be added to neutralize $6.05\times 10^3 kg$ of sulfuric acid solution.

Explanation:

Mass of sulfuric acid solution = $6.05\times 10^3 kg=6.05\times 10^6 g$

$1 kg = 10^3 g$

Percentage mass of sulfuric acid = 95.0%

Mass of sulfuric acid = $\frac{95.0}{100}\times 6.05\times 10^6 g$

$=5,747,500 g$

Moles of sulfuric acid = $\frac{5,747,500 g}{98 g/mol}=58,647.96 mol$

$H_2SO_4+Na_2CO_3\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+CO_2+H_2O$

According to reaction , 1 mole of sulfuric acid is neutralized by 1 mole of sodium carbonate.

Then 58,647.96 moles of sulfuric acisd will be neutralized by :

$\frac{1}{1}\times 58,647.96 mol=58,647.96 mol$ of sodium carbonate

Mass of 58,647.96 moles of sodium carbonate :

$106 g/mol\times 58,647.96 mol=6,216,683.76 g$

6,216,683.76 g = 6,216,683.76 × 0.001 kg = 6,216.684 kg

6,216.684 kilograms of sodium carbonate must be added to neutralize $6.05\times 10^3 kg$ of sulfuric acid solution.

Calculate the initial rate for the formation of C at 25 ∘C, if [A]=0.50M and [B]=0.075M.Express your answer to two significant f

N76 [4]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the initial rate for the formation of C at 25°C, if [A]=0.50 M and [B]=0.075 M. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.Consider the reaction

A + 2B ⇔ C

whose rate at 25°C was measured using three different sets of initial concentrations as listed in the following table:

The table is attached below as an image.

<u>Answer:</u> The initial rate for the formation of C at 25°C is $2.25\times 10^{-2}Ms^{-1}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Rate law is defined as the expression which expresses the rate of the reaction in terms of molar concentration of the reactants with each term raised to the power their stoichiometric coefficient of that reactant in the balanced chemical equation.

For the given chemical equation:

$A+2B\rightleftharpoons C$

Rate law expression for the reaction:

$\text{Rate}=k[A]^a[B]^b$

where,

a = order with respect to A

b = order with respect to B

Expression for rate law for first trial:

$5.4\times 10^{-3}=k(0.30)^a(0.050)^b$ ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second trial:

$1.1\times 10^{-2}=k(0.30)^a(0.100)^b$ ....(2)

Expression for rate law for third trial:

$2.2\times 10^{-2}=k(0.50)^a(0.050)^b$ ....(3)

Dividing 2 by 1, we get:

$\frac{1.1\times 10^{-2}}{5.4\times 10^{-3}}=\frac{(0.30)^a(1.00)^b}{(0.30)^a(0.050)^b}\\\\2=2^b\\b=1$

Dividing 3 by 1, we get:

$\frac{2.2\times 10^{-2}}{5.4\times 10^{-3}}=\frac{(0.50)^a(0.050)^b}{(0.30)^a(0.050)^b}\\\\4.07=2^a\\a=2$

Thus, the rate law becomes:

$\text{Rate}=k[A]^2[B]^1$ ......(4)

Now, calculating the value of 'k' by using any expression.

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$5.4\times 10^{-3}=k[0.30]^2[0.050]^1\\\\k=1.2M^{-2}s^{-1}$

Calculating the initial rate of formation of C by using equation 4, we get:

$k=1.2M^{-2}s^{-1}$

[A] = 0.50 M

[B] = 0.075 M

Putting values in equation 4, we get:

$\text{Rate}=1.2\times (0.50)^2\times (0.075)^1\\\\\text{Rate}=2.25\times 10^{-2}Ms^{-1}$

Hence, the initial rate for the formation of C at 25°C is $2.25\times 10^{-2}Ms^{-1}$

If you weighed out 0.38 g of calcium and reacted it with an excess of hcl, how many moles of h2(g) would you expect to produce?

Hitman42 [59]

Answer is: 0,0095 mol of hydrogen gas will be produced in reaction.
Chemical reaction: Ca + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + H₂.
m(Ca) = 0,38 g.
n(H₂) = ?
n(Ca) = m(Ca) ÷ M(Ca).
n(Ca) = 0,38 g ÷ 40 g/mol
n(Ca) = 0,0095 mol.
from reaction: n(Ca) : n(H₂) = 1 : 1.
n(H₂) = n(Ca) = 0,0095 mol.
n - amount of substance.

Lowering an object decrease is potential

Tresset [83]

Answer:

Lowering the object near the ground decreases its <u>potential energy.</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Potential Energy : Energy possessed by the object due to its shape ,Size and Position is called potential energy.

Example :

Change in shape and size : When you compress the spring , potential energy is introduced in it . So it expand quickly when you remove your hand.

Change in position : when you swing , after attaining maximum height (extreme ends) , the swing comes back on its on .This is because at maximum height ,the swing has<u> maximum Potential energy . </u>Hence it fall back on its on because it already has potential energy.

Potential energy(P) is given by the formula :

P = mgh

where ,

m= mass of the object

g = acceleration due to gravity

h = height of the object from the ground

If the height of the object increases from the ground , its potential energy also get increase.

<u><em>On lowering the object The height of the object from the ground reduces . So potential energy also reduces.</em></u>
