Answer: The correct option is A.

Explanation: Moles of Iron nail can be calculated by using the formula:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}       ...(1)

Given mass of iron nail = 100 g

Molar mass of iron = 56 g/mol

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{100g}{56g/mol}

Number of moles of iron nail = 1.79 moles

The chemical equation for the formation of rust if given by:

4Fe(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3(s)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction,

4 moles of iron reacts with 3 moles of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of rust.

So, 1.79 moles of iron will react with = \frac{3}{4}\times 1.79 = 1.3425 moles of oxygen gas.

For oxygen gas,

Molar mass = 32 g/mol

Mass of oxygen can be calculated by using equation 1, we get

1.3425mol=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{32g/mol}

Mass of oxygen gas = 43 grams

Hence, the correct option is a.

We mix 0.08 moles of chloroacetic acid (ClCH2COOH) and 0.04 moles of
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

A. pH using molar concentrations = 2.56

B. pH using activities                      = 2.46

C. pH of mixture                              = 2.56

Explanation:

A. pH using molar concentrations

ClCH₂COOH + H₂O ⇌ ClCH₂COO⁻ + H₃O⁺

        HA        + H₂O ⇌          A⁻         + H₃O⁺

We have a solution of 0.08 mol HA and 0.04 mol A⁻

We can use the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation to calculate the pH.

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{pH} & = & \text{pK}_{\text{a}} + \log \left(\dfrac{[\text{A}^{-}]}{\text{[HA]}}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 +\log \left(\dfrac{0.04}{0.08}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 + \log0.50 \\& = &2.865 - 0.30 \\& = & \mathbf{2.56}\\\end{array}

B. pH using activities

(i) Calculate [H⁺]

pH = -log[H⁺]

\text{[H$^{+}$]}  = 10^{-\text{pH}} \text{ mol/L} = 10^{-2.56}\text{ mol/L} = 2.73  \times 10^{-3}\text{ mol/L}

(ii) Calculate the ionic strength of the solution

We have a solution of 0.08 mol·L⁻¹ HA, 0.04 mol·L⁻¹ Na⁺, 0.04 mol·L⁻¹ A⁻, and 0.00273 mol·L⁻¹ H⁺.

The formula for ionic strength is  

I = \dfrac{1}{2} \sum_{i} {c_{i}z_{i}^{2}}\\\\I = \dfrac{1}{2}\left [0.04\times (+1)^{2} + 0.04\times(-1)^{2} +  0.00273\times(+1)^{2}\right]\\\\=  \dfrac{1}{2} (0.04 + 0.04 + 0.00273) = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 0.08273 = 0.041

(iii) Calculate the activity coefficients

\ln \gamma = -0.510z^{2}\sqrt{I} = -0.510(-1)^{2}\sqrt{0.041} = -0.510\times 0.20 = -0.10\\\gamma = 10^{-0.10} = 0.79

(iv) Calculate the initial activity of A⁻

a = γc = 0.79 × 0.04= 0.032

(v) Calculate the pH  

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{pH} & = & \text{pK}_{\text{a}} + \log \left(\dfrac{a_{\text{A}^{-}}}{a_{\text{[HA]}}}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 +\log \left(\dfrac{0.032}{0.08}\right )\\\\& = & 2.865 + \log0.40 \\& = & 2.865 -0.40\\& = & \mathbf{2.46}\\\end{array}\\

C. Calculate the pH of the mixture

The mixture initially contains 0.08 mol HA, 0.04 mol Na⁺, 0.04 mol A⁻, 0.05 mol HNO₃, and 0.06 mol NaOH.

The HNO₃ will react with the NaOH to form 0.05 mol Na⁺ and 0.05 mol NO₃⁻.

The excess NaOH will react with 0.01 mol HA to form 0.01 mol Na⁺ and 0.01 mol A⁻.

The final solution will contain 0.07 mol HA, 0.10 mol Na⁺, 0.05 mol A⁻, and 0.05 mol NO₃⁻.

(i) Calculate the ionic strength

I = \dfrac{1}{2}\left [0.10\times (+1)^{2} + 0.05 \times(-1)^{2} +  0.05\times(-1)^{2}\right]\\\\=  \dfrac{1}{2} (0.10 + 0.05 + 0.05) = \dfrac{1}{2} \times 0.20 = 0.10

(ii) Calculate the activity coefficients

\ln \gamma = -0.510z^{2}\sqrt{I} = -0.510(-1)^{2}\sqrt{0.10} = -0.510\times 0.32 = -0.16\\\gamma = 10^{-0.16} = 0.69

(iii) Calculate the initial activity of A⁻:

a = γc = 0.69 × 0.05= 0.034

(iv) Calculate the pH

\text{pH} = 2.865 + \log \left(\dfrac{0.034}{0.07}\right ) = 2.865 + \log 0.49 = 2.865 - 0.31 = \mathbf{2.56}

In what type of environment would you most likely find Fish Species 1? Explain your answer.
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Fish are more likely to hold a soft bait longer. ... Signs of small fish activity can lead you to fishing hot spots. ... Cover can be loosely defined as anything that will hide or protect the fish.

Explanation:

Fishes live in virtually all aquatic habitats. Different species of fish are adapted for different habitats: rocky shores, coral reefs, kelp forests, rivers and streams, lakes and ponds, under sea ice, the deep sea, and other environments of fresh, salt, and brackish water.
