What is a good indicator for titrating potassium hydroxide with hydrobromic acid?

Potassium hydroxide is a strong base and hydrobromic acid is a strong acid. This implies that the pH of the end-point [neutralization] of their titration will be around pH 7. A good indicator for this kind of pH is bromthymol blue. This is because this indicator changes its colour at pH 7.

If 3.31 moles of argon gas occupies a volume of 100 L what volume does 13.15 moles of argon occupy under the same temperature an

kumpel [21]

Answer:

397 L

Explanation:

Recall the ideal gas law:

$\displaystyle PV = nRT$

If temperature and pressure stays constant, we can rearrange all constant variables onto one side of the equation:

$\displaystyle \frac{P}{RT} = \frac{n}{V}$

The left-hand side is simply some constant. Hence, we can write that:

$\displaystyle \frac{n_1}{V_1} = \frac{n_2}{V_2}$

Substitute in known values:

$\displaystyle \frac{(3.31 \text{ mol})}{(100 \text{ L})} = \frac{(13.15\text{ mol })}{V_2}$

Solving for <em>V</em>₂ yields:

$\displaystyle V_2 = \frac{(100 \text{ L})(13.15)}{3.31} = 397 \text{ L}$

In conclusion, 13.15 moles of argon will occupy 397* L under the same temperature and pressure.

(Assuming 100 L has three significant figures.)

Denver, Colorado (altitude above sea level is 5,280 ft) has an atmospheric pressure of 633. mm Hg. Calculate the boiling point o

Fed [463]

Answer:

T2 = 94.6 C

Explanation:

Use Clausius-Clayperyon equation.

ln P1/P2 = ∆Hvap/R (1/T2 - 1/T1) where R = 8.314 J/mol-K and T is in degrees K

P1 = 760 mmHg

P2 = 630 mmHg

T1 = 373 K

T2 = ?

∆Hvap = 40.7 kJ/mole

R = 0.008314 kJ/mole-K (NOTE: change R to units of kJ)

Plug in and solve for T2

ln 760 mmHg/630 mmHg = 40.7 kJ/mole (1/T2 - 1/373K)

T2 = 367.74 K = 94.6 C
