Stoichiometry time! Remember to look at the equation for your molar ratios in other problems.

31.75 g Cu | 1 mol Cu | 2 mol Ag | 107.9 g Ag         6851.65
⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻   →   ⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻⁻ = 107.9 g Ag
       ∅        | 63.5 g Cu | 1 mol Cu | 1 mol Ag              63.5

There's also a shorter way to do this: Notice the molar ratio from Cu to Ag, which is 1:2. When you plug in 31.75 into your molar mass for Cu, it equals 1/2 mol. That also means that you have 1 mol Ag because of the ratio, qhich you can then plug into your molar mass, getting 107.9 as well.

Read the given equation. 2Na + 2H2O ? 2NaOH + H2 During a laboratory experiment, a certain quantity of sodium metal reacted with

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

The number of moles of Na metal that used initially = 0.70 mol.

The quantity of Na metal used initially to produce 7.80 of H₂ gas = 16.02 g.

Explanation:

It is a stichiometry problem.

2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂,

The balanced equation shows that 2.0 moles of Na metal react with 2.0 moles of water to produce 2.0 moles of NaOH and 1.0 mole of H₂,

Firstly, we need to convert the volume of H₂ (7.80 L) produced to no. of moles (n) using the ideal gas law: PV = nRT,

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm (P at STP = 1.0 atm),

V is the volume of the gas in L (V = 7.80 L),

n is the number of moles in mole,

R is the general gas constant (R = 0.082 L.atm/mol),

T is the temperature of the gas in K (T at STP = 0.0 °C + 273 = 273.0 K).

∴ The number of moles of H₂ gas (n) = PV / RT = [(1.0 atm)(7.80 L)] / [(0.082 L.atm/mol.K)(273.0 K)] = 0.35 mol.

Using cross multiplication:

2.0 moles of Na will produce → 1.0 mole of H₂, from the stichiometrey.

??? moles of Na will produce → 0.35 mole of H₂.

∴ The number of moles of Na metal that used initially = (2.0 mol)(0.35 mol) / (1.0 mol) = 0.70 mol.

Now, we can get the quantity of Na metal using the relation:

∴ mass = n x molar mass = (0.70 mol)(22.989 g/mol) = 16.02 g.

A mixture of helium, nitrogen and oxygen has a total pressure of 821 mmHg. The partial pressure of helium is 105 mmHg, and the p

skad [1K]

Answer:

Total partial pressure, Pt = 821 mm Hg

Partial pressure of Helium, P1 = 105 mm Hg

Partial pressure of Nitrogen, P2 = 312 mm Hg

Partial pressure of Oxygen, P3 = ? mm Hg

According to Dalton's law of Partial pressures,

Pt = P1 + P2 + P3

So, P3 = 404 mm Hg

In a 0.730 M solution, a weak acid is 12.5% dissociated. Calculate Ka of the acid.

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

Approximately $1.30 \times 10^{-2}$ , assuming that this acid is monoprotic.

Explanation:

Assume that this acid is monoprotic. Let $\rm HA$ denote this acid.

$\rm HA \rightleftharpoons H^{+} + A^{-}$ .

Initial concentration of $\rm HA$ without any dissociation:

$[{\rm HA}] = 0.730\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}$ .

After $12.5\%$ of that was dissociated, the concentration of both $\rm H^{+}$ and $\rm A^{-}$ (conjugate base of this acid) would become:

$12.5\% \times 0.730\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} = 0.09125\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}$ .

Concentration of $\rm HA$ in the solution after dissociation:

$(1 - 12.5\%) \times 0.730\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1} = 0.63875\; \rm mol\cdot L^{-1}$ .

Let $[{\rm HA}]$ , $[{\rm H}^{+}]$ , and $[{\rm A}^{-}]$ denote the concentration (in $\rm mol \cdot L^{-1}$ or $\rm M$ ) of the corresponding species at equilibrium. Calculate the acid dissociation constant $K_{\rm a}$ for $\rm HA$ , under the assumption that this acid is monoprotic:

$\begin{aligned}K_{\rm a} &= \frac{[{\rm H}^{+}] \cdot [{\rm A}^{-}]}{[{\rm HA}]} \\ &= \frac{(0.09125\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}) \times (0.09125\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1})}{0.63875\; \rm mol \cdot L^{-1}}\\[0.5em]&\approx 1.30 \times 10^{-2} \end{aligned}$ .
