Answer:

In general, a scientific law is the description of an observed phenomenon. It doesn't explain why the phenomenon exists or what causes it. The explanation of a phenomenon is called a scientific theory. It is a misconception that theories turn into laws with enough research.

Answer:

A scientific law is a description of an observed phenomenon.this is not an explanation of a phenomenon but a description.

Hypothesis becomes a law when they follow a line of reasoning and formulate a theory.then once a theory has been evaluated through a series of testing it becomes a law.

Hope this helps and if it does pls mark as brainliest answer

A chemistry student needs to standardize a fresh solution of sodium hydroxide. She carefully weighs out 385.mg of oxalic acid H2

Vlada [557]

Answer:

The molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution is 0.0692 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of H2C2O4 = 385 mg = 0.385 grams

volume = 250 mL = 0.250 L

Volume of NaOH = 123.7 mL = 0.1237 L

Molar mass H2C2O4 = 90.03 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

2NaOH + H2C2O4 → Na2C2O4 + 2H2O

Step 3: Calculate moles H2C2O4

Moles H2C2O4 = mass H2C2O4 / molar mass H2C2O4

Moles H2C2O4 = 0.385 grams / 90.03 g/mol

Moles H2C2O4 = 0.00428 moles

Step 4: Calculate molarity of H2C2O4

Molarity H2C2O4 = moles / volume

Molarity H2C2O4 = 0.00428 moles / 0.250 L

Molarity H2C2O4 = 0.01712 M

Step 5: Calculate molarity of NaOH

2*Ca*Va = n*Cb*Vb

⇒ with Ca = Molarity of H2C2O4 = 0.01712 M

⇒ Va = volume of H2C2O4 = 0.250 L

⇒Cb = molarity of NaOH = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒ Vb = volume of NaOH = 0.1237 L

Cb = (2*0.01712*0.250)/0.1237

Cb = 0.0691 M

The molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution is 0.0692 M

Based on the balanced equation 2C2H2 + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O calculate the number of excess reagent units remaining when 52 C2H2 mol

erica [24]

Answer:

20 molecules of oxygen gas remains after the reaction.

Explanation:

$2C_2H_2 + 5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2 + 2H_2O$

Molecules of ethyne = 52

Molecules of oxygen gas = 150

According to reaction, 2 molecules of ethyne reacts with 5 molecules of oxygen gas.

Then 52 molecules of ethyne will react with:

$\frac{5}{2}\times 52=130 molecules$ of oxygen gas.

As we can see that we have 150 molecules of oxygen gas, but 52 molecules of ethyne will react with 130 molecules of oxygen gas. So, this means that ethyne is a limiting reagent and oxygen gas is an excessive reagent.

Remaining molecules of recessive reagent = 150 - 130 = 20

20 molecules of oxygen gas remains after the reaction.
