Answer:

70.872 mL

Explanation:

The reaction of Sodium borohydrate with sulfuric acid to form diborane is shown below as:

2 NaBH₄ + 2 H₂SO₄ = B₂H₆ + 3 H₂ + 2 NaSO₄

Given mass of B₂H₆ = 0.579 g

Molar mass of B₂H₆ = 27.66 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus, moles of B₂H₆are:

moles= \frac{0.579\ g}{27.66\ g/mol}

moles= 0.0191\ mol

From the reaction,

1 mole of B₂H₆ is produced when 2 moles of NaBH₄ react with acid.

So,

0.0191 moles of B₂H₆ is produced when 2×0.0191 moles of NaBH₄ react with acid.

Moles of NaBH₄ required = 0.0382 moles

Given, Molarity of NaBH₄ = 0.539 M

Molarity =  Moles / Volume

Volume = Moles / Molarity = 0.0382 moles / 0.539 M = 0.070872 L

Also, 1L = 1000 mL

So,

<u>Volume = 70.872 mL</u>

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Since [pKa = - log Ka]....hence..,the larger the Ka value,the stronger the acid is..so this means that the pKa is vice versa

Saying that the smaller the pKa value..the stronger the acid is.

A sample of calcium oxide (CaO) has a mass of 2.80 g. The molar mass of CaO is 56.08 g/mol. How many moles of CaO does this samp
Molodets [167]

Answer is "0.05 mol".

<em>Explanation;</em>

We can do calculation by using a simple formula as

n = m/M

Where, n is the number of moles of the substance (mol), m is the mass of the substance (g) and M is the molar mass of the substance (g/mol).

Here,

n = ?

m = 2.80 g

M = 56.08 g/mol

By substitution,

n = 2.80 g /56.08 g/mol

n = 0.0499 mol ≈ 0.05 mol
