Why are acids, bases and even some salts commonly used in cleaning applications?

Chemistry

Jet001 [13]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Hope this helps :)

Explanation:

In the chemical industry, acids react in neutralization reactions to produce salts. For example, nitric acid reacts with ammonia to produce ammonium nitrate, a fertilizer. Additionally, carboxylic acids can be esterified with alcohols, to produce esters.

Acids are used to remove mineral deposits, rust stains, and hard water deposits. They can remove discoloration from some metals, such as aluminum, brass, bronze, and copper. Some acids are effective both in cleaning and disinfecting surfaces.

1. A rock with a mass of 66.5g<br>occupies 23.0 cm. Density?​
telo118 [61]

Answer:

2.89 g/cm^3

Explanation:

Since density equals mass over volume (or also seen as d=\frac{m}{v} ), simply divide 66.5 grams by 23.0 cm. This will output an answer of 2.89 g/cm^3.

If the reactants have a potential energy of 10.2 kJ/mol and the products have a potential
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

The ΔH is 5.5 kJ/mol and the reaction is endothermic.

Explanation:

To calculate the ∆H (heat of reaction) of the combustion reaction, that is, the heat that accompanies the entire reaction, you must make the total sum of all the heats of the products and of the reagents affected by their stoichiometric coefficient ( number of molecules of each compound participating in the reaction) and finally subtract them:

Combustion enthalpy = ΔH = ∑H products - ∑Hreactants

In this case:

ΔH = 15.7 kJ/mol - 10.2 kJ/mol= 5.5 kJ/mol

An endothermic reaction is one whose enthalpy value is positive, that is, the system absorbs heat from the environment (ΔH> 0).

<u><em>The ΔH is 5.5 kJ/mol and the reaction is endothermic.</em></u>

What is the maximum pressure at which solid CO2 (dry ice) can be converted into CO2 gas without melting?
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

The triple point of carbon dioxide is 5.11 atmosphere at -56.6 degree celsius . At pressure greater than 5.11 , solid carbon dioxide liquefies ,  as it is warmed. At pressure lesser than 5.11 atmosphere , it will go into gaseous state without liquefying . Excessive pressure helps liquification process.

So maximum pressure required is 5.11 atmosphere. Beyond this pressure , solid CO2 will liquify.
