Answer:

3) Vinegar

Step-by-step explanation:

Vinegar is a dilute solution of acetic acid. It has a sour taste and turns blue litmus red.

1) NaOH and 3) lye are bases. They both have a slippery feel and turn red litmus blue.

2) Water is neutral. It is neither an acid nor a base.

ruslelena [56]

Answer:

The initial concentration of ammonia is 0.14 M and the pH of the solution at equivalence point is 5.20

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$ .....(1)

Molarity of HCl solution = 0.164 M

Volume of solution = 23.8 mL = 0.0238 L (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.164M=\frac{\text{Moles of HCl}}{0.0238L}\\\\\text{Moles of HCl}=(0.146mol/L\times 0.0238L)=0.0035mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of ammonia and HCl follows:

$NH_3+HCl\rightarrow NH_4^++Cl^-$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of HCl reacts with 1 mole of ammonia

So, 0.0035 moles of HCl will react with = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0035=0.0035mol$ of ammonia

Calculating the initial concentration of ammonia by using equation 1:

Moles of ammonia = 0.0035 moles

Volume of solution = 25 mL = 0.025 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Initial concentration of ammonia}=\frac{0.0035mol}{0.025L}=0.14M$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of ammonia produces 1 mole of ammonium ion

So, 0.0035 moles of ammonia will react with = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0035=0.0035mol$ of ammonium ion

Calculating the concentration of ammonium ion by using equation 1:

Moles of ammonium ion = 0.0035 moles

Volume of solution = [23.8 + 25] mL = 48.8 mL = 0.0488 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Molarity of ammonium ion}=\frac{0.0035mol}{0.0488L}=0.072M$

To calculate the acid dissociation constant for the given base dissociation constant, we use the equation:

$K_w=K_b\times K_a$

where,

$K_w$ = Ionic product of water = $10^{-14}$

$K_a$ = Acid dissociation constant

$K_b$ = Base dissociation constant = $1.8\times 10^{-5}$

$10^{-14}=1.8\times 10^{-5}\times K_a\\\\K_a=\frac{10^{-14}}{1.8\times 10^{-5}}=5.55\times 10^{-10}$

The chemical equation for the dissociation of ammonium ion follows:

$NH_4^+\rightarrow NH_3+H^+$

The expression of $K_a$ for above equation follows:

$K_a=\frac{[NH_3][H^+]}{[NH_4^+]}$

We know that:

$[NH_3]=[H^+]=x$

$[NH_4^+]=0.072M$

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$5.55\times 10^{-10}=\frac{x\times x}{0.072}\\\\x=6.32\times 10^{-6}M$

To calculate the pH concentration, we use the equation:

$pH=-\log[H^+]$

We are given:

$[H^+]=6.32\times 10^{--6}M$

$pH=-\log (6.32\times 10^{-6})\\\\pH=5.20$

Hence, the initial concentration of ammonia is 0.14 M and the pH of the solution at equivalence point is 5.20

The decomposition of dinitrogen pentoxide, N2O5, to NO2 and O2 is a first-order reaction. At 60°C, the rate constant is 2.8 × 10

Ugo [173]

Answer:

The correct option is a.

Explanation:

$2N_2O_5\rightarrow 4NO_2 + O_2$

125 kPa

125kpa - 2x 4x x

Total pressure after reaction = 176 kPa

125 kPa - 2x + 4x + x = 176 kPa

x = 17

125 kpa - 2x = 125 kPa - 2(17) = 91 kPa

Initial pressure of the dinitrogen pentoxide ,(at t=0) = $P_o= 125 kPa$

Final pressure of the dinitrogen pentoxide, (at t = t) = P = 91 kPa

The rate constant is = $k = 2.8\times 10^{-3} min^{-1}$

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{P_o}{P}$

$t=\frac{2.303}{2.8\times 10^{-3} min^{-1}}\log\frac{125 kPa}{91 kPa}$

$t=113.3969 minutes\approx 113 minutes$

It will take 113 minutes for the total pressure to reach 176 kPa.
