How does the highly reactive nature chlorine contribute to the creation of ozone holes in the upper atmosphere?

Chemistry

Chlorine is a halogen and is very reactive and unstable. If released in an elemental form (Cl2), it would react with other substances immediately. However, <span>chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) which contain chlorine are unreactive and when released they eventually end up in the upper atmosphere still "intact". In the upper atmosphere, sunlight is more intense and is able to break apart CFC, releasing the highly reactive chlorine which in turns destroys ozone which is more abundant in the upper atmosphere (stratosphere). </span>

A 31.0 mL sample of 0.624M perchloric acid is titrated with a 0.258M sodium hydroxide solution.
levacccp [35]

Answer:

0.0922 M

Explanation:

The problem first states that the titration is made using NaOH, and later asks about the addition of KOH. I'm going to assume NaOH was used throughout the whole problem. The result does not change if it was KOH instead.

The reaction that takes place is:

  • HClO₄ + NaOH → NaClO₄ + H₂O

First we <u>calculate how many HClO₄ moles are there in the sample</u>, using the <em>given molarity and volume</em>:

  • 0.624 M * 13.0 mL = 8.11 mmol HClO₄

Then we <u>calculate how many NaOH moles were added</u>:

  • 0.258 M * 15.0 mL = 3.87 mmol NaOH

Now we calculate how many HClO₄ remained after the reaction:

  • 8.11 - 3.87 = 4.24 mmol HClO₄

As <em>HClO₄ is a strong acid</em>, 4.24 mmol HClO₄ = 4.24 mmol H⁺

Finally we <u>calculate the molarity of H⁺</u>, using the<em> calculated number of moles and final volume</em>:

  • Final volume = 31.0 mL + 15.0 mL = 46.0 mL
  • 4.24 mmol / 46.0 mL = 0.0922 M
