Answer:

pH = 8.24

Explanation:

Nitrous acid (HNO₂) reacts with KOH, thus:

HNO₂ + KOH → KNO₂ + H₂O

Moles of HNO₂ are:

0.0257mL ₓ (0.370mol / L) = 0.00951moles.

In equivalence point, the complete moles of nitrous acid reacts with KOH producing potassium nitrite. There are needed:

0.00951mol ₓ (1L / 0.491mol) = 0.01937L ≡ 19.4mL of 0.491M KOH to reach equivalence point.

Total volume in equivalence point is: 19.4mL + 25.7mL = <em>45.1mL</em>

Potassium nitrite is in equilibrium with water, thus:

NO₂⁻ + H₂O ⇄ HNO₂ + OH⁻

Where equilibrium constant, Kb, is defined as:

Kb = 1.41x10⁻¹¹ = \frac{[OH^-][HNO_2]}{[NO_2]}

In equilibrium, molarity of each compound are:

[NO₂⁻]: 0.00951mol/0.00451L - X = 0.211M - X

[HNO₂]: X

[OH⁻]: X

<em>Where X is reaction coordinate</em>

Replacing in Kb:

1.41x10⁻¹¹ = \frac{[X][X]}{[0.211 -X]}

0 = X² + 1.41x10⁻¹¹X - 2.97x10⁻¹²

Solving for X:

X = -1.72x10⁻⁶ <em>FALSE ANSWER. There is no negative concentrations.</em>

X = 1.72x10⁻⁶. <em>Right answer.</em>

That means:

[OH⁻]: 1.72x10⁻⁶M

As pOH is -log [OH⁻] and pH = 14-pOH:

pOH = 5.76; <em>pH = 8.24</em>

How many moles of PC15 can be produced from 58.0 g of Cl₂ (and excess<br> P4)?
ludmilkaskok [199]

0.3268 moles of PC15 can be produced from 58.0 g of Cl₂ (and excess

P4)

<h3>How to calculate moles?</h3>

The balanced chemical equation is

P_{4}  + 10Cl_{2}  = 4PCl_{5}

The mass of clorine is m(Cl_{2}) = 58.0 g

The amount of clorine is n(Cl_{2}) = m(Cl_{2})/M(Cl_{2}) = 58/70.906 = 0.817 mol

The stoichiometric reaction,shows that

10 moles of Cl_{2} yield 4 moles of PCl_{5};

0.817 of Cl_{2} yield x moles of PCl_{5}

n(PCl_{5}) = 4*0.817/10 = 0.3268 mol

What is the name of the process during which a bond between two monomers is broken?
Snezhnost [94]

Answer: D, hydrolysis

Hydrolysis is any chemical reaction in which a molecule of water ruptures one or more chemical bonds. The term is used broadly for substitution, elimination, and fragmentation reactions in which water is the nucleophile.

kumpel [21]

Answer:

Attached in the photo.

Explanation:

Hello,

The answers in the attached photo. Just three things:

- In the second point a parenthesis is missing to properly understand the molecule (after the oxygen), nevertheless, I assumed it was an ether.

- In the sixth point, there's a missing hydrogen for it to be an ether as well.

- In the tenth point the second parenthesis is not clear, it seems there's a missing subscript, nevertheless I draw it assuming complete octates.

Best regards.
