What is the volume of 0.250 m hydrochloric acid required to react completely with 20.0 ml of 0.250 m ca(oh)2?

1 answer:

5 0

The balanced equation for the above neutralisation reaction is as follows;
Ca(OH)₂ + 2HCl ----> CaCl₂ + 2H₂O
Stoichiometry of Ca(OH)₂ to HCl is 1:2
number of Ca(OH)₂ moles reacted - 0.250 mol/L x 20.0 x 10⁻³ L = 5.00 x 10⁻³ mol
according to molar ratio of 1:2
number of HCl moles required = 2 x number of Ca(OH)₂ moles reacted
number of HCl moles = 5.00 x 10⁻³ x 2 = 10.0 x 10⁻³ mol
molarity of HCl solution - 0.250 M
there are 0.250 mol in volume of 1 L
therefore 10.0 x 10⁻³ mol in - 10.0 x 10⁻³ mol / 0.250 mol/L = 40.0 mL
40.0 mL of 0.250 M HCl is required

Answer:work function= 8.2×10-19J

Minimum wavelength of light required= 2.4×10-7m

Explanation:

The wavelength of incident light was given as 193nm. We have to convert this to meters and have 193×10-9m. Then we use it to find the energy of incident photon E. When E is found we now apply Einstein photoelectric equation to obtain the work function Wo since the kinetic energy of photoelectrons is known as 1.8×10-19J.

From this work function. We can obtain the minimum wavelength of light required. All these steps are shown in the image attached.
