How many liters of a 0.5 m sodium hydroxide solution would contain 2 moles of solute?

Chemistry

Klio2033 [76]3 years ago

7 0

Answer:

4 liters

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) M = 0.5 M

Note: since the question is about volume (liters) and moles of solute, the correct unit for the concentration of the hydroxide solution is M (upper case) which is the unit for molarity. Lower case m is used for molality, and you cannot calculate the volume of the solution unless you know some other data, e.g. density of the solution.

b) n = 2

c) V (in liters) = ?

2) Formula:

Molarity is the number of moles of solute per liter of solution:

M = n / V (in liters)

3) Solution:

a) Clear V from the formula: V (in liters) = M / n

b) Substitute: V (in liters) = 2 moles / 0.5M = 4 liters ← answer

According to the kinetic molecular theory, temperature is directly proportional

rjkz [21]

Answer:

According to Kinetic Molecular theory, Temperature is directly proportional to the Average Kinetic energy of a molecules.

Explanation:

If the mass of the particles in a container is constant, then its moving molecules cause the gas gets warmer. On collision of molecules, Kinetic energy of molecules get high, so as a result, temperature gets high.

Fast moving of particles increases the temperature.

Write the net ionic equation for the acid-base hydrolysis equilibrium that is established when ammonium perchlorate is dissolved

Whitepunk [10]

Answer: The net ionic equation is written below.

Explanation:

Net ionic equation of any reaction does not include any spectator ions.

Spectator ions are defined as the ions which do not get involved in the chemical equation. It is also defined as the ions which are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction when it is present in ionic form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of ammonium perchlorate and water is given as:

$NH_4ClO_4(aq.)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow NH_4OH(aq.)+HClO_4(aq.)$

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

$NH_4^+(aq.)+ClO_4^-(aq.)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow NH_4OH(aq.)+H^+(aq.)+ClO_4^-(aq.)$

Ammonium hydroxide will not dissociate into its ions because it is a weak base.

As, chlorate ions are present on both the sides of the reaction, thus, it will not be present in the net ionic equation.

The net ionic equation for the above reaction follows:

$NH_4^+(aq.)+H_2O(l)\rightarrow NH_3^+(aq.)+H_3O^+(aq.)$

Hence, the net ionic equation is given above.

melamori03 [73]

Answer: We do not know. We have not been given the solubility of oxygen in water at a given temperature nor have we been given the Henry's laws constant. We also do not know whether you mean 1 atmosphere of air, or 1 atmosphere of oxygen.
