Something with rust means that it has oxidized which is a chemical change. The reason it is a chemical change is because the iron had a chemical reaction with the oxygen and water which resulted in the creation of a new compound (that is a chemical change). You can't change the nail to not having any rust form because the rust will still exist ( If you clean it the rust will still be there but on another object )

An analytical chemist is titrating of a solution of nitrous acid with a solution of . The of nitrous acid is . Calculate the pH
Burka [1]

Answer:

pH = 2.69

Explanation:

The complete question is:<em> An analytical chemist is titrating 182.2 mL of a 1.200 M solution of nitrous acid (HNO2) with a solution of 0.8400 M KOH. The pKa of nitrous acid is 3.35. Calculate the pH of the acid solution after the chemist has added 46.44 mL of the KOH solution to it.</em>

<em />

The reaction of HNO₂ with KOH is:

HNO₂ + KOH → NO₂⁻ + H₂O + K⁺

Moles of HNO₂ and KOH that react are:

HNO₂ = 0.1822L × (1.200mol / L) = <em>0.21864 moles HNO₂</em>

KOH = 0.04644L × (0.8400mol / L) = <em>0.0390 moles KOH</em>

That means after the reaction, moles of HNO₂ and NO₂⁻ after the reaction are:

NO₂⁻ = 0.03900 moles KOH = moles NO₂⁻

HNO₂ = 0.21864 moles HNO₂ - 0.03900 moles = 0.17964 moles HNO₂

It is possible to find the pH of this buffer (<em>Mixture of a weak acid, HNO₂ with the conjugate base, NO₂⁻), </em>using H-H equation for this system:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂]

pH = 3.35 + log₁₀ [0.03900mol] / [0.17964mol]

<h3>pH = 2.69</h3>

Plz answer thx<br><br><br> ​How many moles are in 2.5 x 10^18 grams of water?
alex41 [277]

Answer:

1.39\times 10^{17} moles of water in 2.5\times 10^{18} g of water.

Explanation:

Mass of water = m = 2.5\times 10^{18} g

Molar mass of water = M = 18 g/mol

Moles = n = \frac{m}{M}

n=\frac{2.5\times 10^{18} g}{18 g/mol}=1.39\times 10^{17} moles

So, there are 1.39\times 10^{17} moles of water in 2.5\times 10^{18} g of water.

A complex absorbs photons with an energy of 4.10×10^−19 J. What is the wavelength of these photons? If this is the only place in
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

483 nm corresponds to blue light hence the complex will appear orange.

Explanation:

Using the formula;

E= hc/λ

Where;

E = energy of the photon

h = Plank's constant (6.6*10^-34Js)

c = Speed of light (3*10^8 ms-1)

λ = wavelength

λ = hc/E

λ = 6.6*10^-34 * 3*10^8/4.10×10^−19

λ = 4.83 * 10^-7 or 483 nm

483 nm corresponds to blue light

Using the colour wheel approach, if a complex absorbs blue light, then it will appear orange.

How many molecules make up 8.41 moles of Ca2(SO3)?
sammy [17]

Answer:

<h3>5.06282 × 10²⁴ molecules</h3>

Explanation:

The number of molecules of Ca2(SO3) can be found by using the formula

<h3>N = n × L</h3>

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

N = 8.41 × 6.02 × 10²³

We have the final answer as

<h3>5.06282 × 10²⁴ molecules</h3>

Hope this helps you
