How might you explain the difference between the pH values of the 0.01 M HCl (pH = 1.1) and the 0.01 M HC2H3O2 (pH = 3.6)?

Answer: HCI dissociates more

Hope this helps :)

The difference is due to the degree of dissociation of the substances. HCl dissociates completely into ions when added to water, while this is not the case for HC₂H₃O₂; therefore, HCl has a lower pH.

How many moles of mgs2o3 are in 193 g of the compound?

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

1.414 Moles

Solution:

Data Given:

Mass of MgS₂O₃ = 193 g

M.Mass of MgS₂O₃ = 136.43 g.mol⁻¹

Moles = ?

Formula Used:

Moles = Mass ÷ M.Mass

Putting values,

Moles = 193 g ÷ 136.43 g.mol⁻¹

Moles = 1.414 mol

Why is it better to use the metric system, rather than the English system, in scientific measurement?

frez [133]

The metric system is based on powers of 10 so it is much easier to convert units, often just by moving the decimal point.

Boron sulfide, B2S3(s), reacts violently with water to form dissolved boric acid (H3BO3) and hydrogen sulfide gas.Express your a

ioda

Answer:

Explanation:

From the statement of the problem,

B₂S₃ $_{s}$ + H₂O $_{l}$ → H₃BO₃ $_{aq}$ + H₂S $_{g}$

B₂S₃ + H₂O → H₃BO₃ + H₂S

We that the above expression does not conform with the law of conservation of mass:

To obey the law, we need to derive a balanced reaction equation:

Let us use the mathematical method to obtain a balanced equation.

let the balanced equation be:

aB₂S₃ + bH₂O → cH₃BO₃ + dH₂S

where a, b, c and d will make the equation balanced.

Conservating B: 2a = c

S: 3a = d

H: 2b = 3c + 2d

O: b = 3c

if a = 1,

c = 2,

b = 6,

2d = 2(6) - 3(2) = 6, d = 3

Now we can input this into our equation:

B₂S₃ + 6H₂O → 2H₃BO₃ + 3H₂S

B₂S₃ $_{s}$ + 6H₂O $_{l}$ → 2H₃BO₃ $_{aq}$ + 3H₂S $_{g}$

How many moles of nitrogen trifluoride (NF3) can be produced from 9.65 mole of Fluorine gas (F2)

user100 [1]

Answer:

6.43 moles of NF₃.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

N₂ + 3F₂ —> 2NF₃

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of nitrogen trifluoride (NF₃) produced by the reaction of 9.65 moles of Fluorine gas (F₂). This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Therefore, 9.65 moles of F₂ will react to to produce = (9.65 × 2)/3 = 6.43 moles of NF₃.

Thus, 6.43 moles of NF₃ were obtained from the reaction.

What is the concentration of a solution that has 15.0 g NaCl dissolved to a total of 750 ml?

Oksana_A [137]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of solution is 0.342 M

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

We are given:

Mass of solute (Sodium chloride) = 15 g

Molar mass of sodium chloride = 58.5 g/mol

Volume of solution = 750 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{15g\times 1000}{58.5g/mol\times 750mL}\\\\\text{Molarity of solution}=0.342M$

Hence, the concentration of solution is 0.342 M
