What is the concentration of a magnesium hydroxide solution with a pH of 12.05

Chemistry

Answer:

5.6x10^–3 M

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the pOH of the solution. This can be achieved as shown below:

pH + pOH = 14

pH = 12.05

12.05 + pOH = 14

Collect like terms

pOH = 14 – 12.05

pOH = 1.95

Next, we shall determine the concentration of hydroxide ion OH- in the solution. This is illustrated below:

pOH = – Log [OH-]

pOH = 1.95

1.95 = – Log [OH-]

– 1.95 = Log [OH-]

[OH-] = anti log (– 1.95)

[OH-] = 0.0112 M

Finally, we can obtain the concentration of Mg(OH)2 as follow:

In solution, Mg(OH)2 will dissociates as shown below:

Mg(OH)2 —> Mg2+ + 2OH-

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Mg(OH)2 produced 2 moles of OH-.

Therefore, XM of Mg(OH)2 will produce 0.0112 M of OH- i.e

XM of Mg(OH)2 = 0.0112/2

XM of Mg(OH)2 = 5.6x10^–3 M

Therefore, the concentration of Mg(OH)2 is 5.6x10^–3 M

Analysis of 20.0 g of a compound containing only calcium and bromine indicates that 4.00 g of calcium are present. What is the e
Leto [7]

Answer:

d. Ca_5Br_2

Explanation:

Mass of calcium = 4.00 g

Molar mass of calcium = 40.078 g/mol

<u>Moles of calcium = 4.00 / 40.078 moles = 0.9981 moles</u>

Given that the compound only contains calcium and bromine. So,

Mass of bromine in the sample = Total mass - Mass of calcium

Mass of the sample = 20.0 g

<u>Mass of bromine in sample = 20.0 - 4.00 g = 16.0 g</u>

Molar mass of bromine = 79.904 g/mol

<u>Moles of Bromine  = 16.0 / 79.904  = 0.2002 moles </u>

Taking the simplest ratio for Ca and Br as:

0.9981 : 0.2002  = 5 : 1

The empirical formula is = Ca_5Br_2

Why do hydrogen atoms accompany electrons as they are transferred in biological systems?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]
<span>Hydrogen atoms accompany electrons as they are transferred in biological systems in order to ensure that the metabolism proceeds to completion.
This is considered the main purpose of the electron shuttles.

50 mL of 2.2 M HCl is combined with 50 mL of 2.0 M NaOH in a coffee-cup
GaryK [48]

Answer:

-56.1kJ/mol

Explanation:

The reaction between HCl and NaOH is:

NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H₂O + ΔH

<em>Where ΔH is heat change in  the reaction.</em>

<em />

As the temperature of the solution increases, the heat is released and ΔH < 0

The heat released in the reaction is obtained using coffe-cup calorimeter equation:

Q = C×m×ΔT

<em>Where Q is heat</em>

<em>C is specific heat of the solution (4.184J/g°C)</em>

<em>m is mass of solution: Assuming density = 1g/mL, 100mL of solution = 100g</em>

<em>And ΔT is change in temperature (13.4°C)</em>

<em />

Replacing:

Q = C×m×ΔT

Q = -4.184J/g°C×100g×13.4

Q = -5606.6J

Now, in the reaction you have:

<em>Moles HCl:</em>

0.050L * (2.2mol/L) = 0.11 moles

<em>Moles NaOH:</em>

0.050L * (2.0mol/L) = 0.1 moles

That means the moles of reaction are 0.1 moles, and heat change in the chemical reaction is:

5606.6J / 0.1 mol = 56066J =

<h3>-56.1kJ/mol</h3>
